CKE Franchise Group StarCorp has selected Presto Automation as its voice artificial intelligence (AI) technology vendor for 58 of its Carl’s Jr restaurant locations in the US.

StarCorp decided to implement Presto’s Voice tech, a drive-through automation solution, after a successful six-month trial at two of its restaurant locations.

StarCorp president Warren Forsythe said: “We are very excited to be working with Presto. We have a standard of excellence to uphold at StarCorp and we chose Presto’s solution as it delivers on our expectations of the technology, including driving increased revenue and more efficient operations, which we believe will be essential for all restaurants.”

The two companies plan to roll out the Voice tech across Carl’s Jr restaurant locations in the coming months.

Presto president Dan Mosher said: “We are delighted that StarCorp has signed its Carl’s Jr locations with Presto after an extensive pilot and believe that action speaks volumes.

“StarCorp has been an incredible partner and this expanded partnership is a further proof point of the benefits of our Voice solution.”

Last month, Presto signed agreements with 13 quick service restaurant (QSR) franchise groups that collectively own and operate more than 500 locations across the US.

The franchise groups have agreed to start using the company’s Presto Voice.

Presto claims that its solution offers human-like artificial intelligence (AI) voice assistance, which is available 24/7, operating at peak efficiency.
