/ About this event
Step into the kitchen, let real-time computer vision guide your plating, and eat your creation. No line-cooking experience required.
Can an AI turn a first-time cook into a pro in under 60 seconds?
Join Nectao for an interactive, delicious SF Tech Week experience where you become the line cook.
Instead of another passive panel discussion, we’re handing you the apron. Step up to our live prep line, where Nectao’s real-time computer vision AI will guide you step-by-step to build a signature dish from scratch—ensuring exact portions, perfect visual plating, and zero errors.
Once your dish gets a 100% AI Quality Pass, take your creation to the dining room and network with restaurant founders, tech innovators, and top VCs over great food.
