Congrats! I met with the team in their YC days, and can say they are all quite sharp, and the market is overdue for this kind of automation/service.

They might want to partner with my buddies at http://TheOrangeChef.com, who sell (among other inventions) iPad sleeves to keep them clean in the kitchen. Maybe send a batch of sleeves with every new restaurant that signs up?


Having worked in kitchens, it's great to see this. Wish more start-ups would focus on solving real world problems.


This kind of looks like a more streamlined Food Hub https://food-hub.org/


This is awesome! This team really works hard!


Na'ama and the idea are awesome. congrats on the raise and good luck!


Given the name "Sourcery" is already trademarked in IC009 (tech goods and services), it'll be interesting to see if they get to keep using that name.


interesting. got a link?


Click TESS -> Basic:

http://www.uspto.gov/trademarks/process/search/

Enter "Sourcery".


yes, i see that: http://tmsearch.uspto.gov/bin/showfield?f=doc&state=4809:92q... but the use is

Goods and Services IC 009. US 021 023 026 036 038. G & S: Computer software for electronic design automation; computer software for creating, debugging, profiling, analyzing and optimizing embedded computer systems. FIRST USE: 20110713. FIRST USE IN COMMERCE: 20110713

which is to say there doesn't seem to be a conflict.



Sourcery looks amazing! Such a critical problem
