About Mezli
At Mezli, we're building "auto-kitchens", fully autonomous shipping-container restaurants that serve great, affordable meals for takeout and delivery. While at Stanford, the three of us got fed up with having to either cook every day or spend $10 or more for healthy options like Chipotle, Sweetgreen, etc. So, we decided to democratize access to healthy, convenient food by building Mezli.
