Platterz Uses Artificial Intelligence to Make Catering Easy
Platterz uses artificial intelligence to make office catering easier. The tech platform just closed their Series A funding round and raised $15 million.
Jon Ebner is the General Manager of Platterz. He joins to explain how Platterz is one of the first online platforms to automate and bring extensive tech to the catering industry.
Ebner says the machine learning incorporated into Platterz enables clients to complete ordering for 3 months of food as quickly as the single day, non-tech catering process.
With the Series A funding, Ebner says Platterz will continue to spread throughout North America.
Apple CEO Tim Cook said Thursday that the majority of iPhones sold in the U.S. in the current fiscal quarter will be sourced from India, while iPads and other devices will come from Vietnam as the company works to avoid the impact of President Trump’s tariffs on its business. Apple’s earnings for the first three months of the year topped Wall Street’s expectations thanks to high demand for its iPhones, and the company said tariffs had a limited effect on the fiscal second quarter’s results. Cook added that for the current quarter, assuming things don’t change, Apple expects to see $900 million added to its costs as a result of the tariffs.
