Marble is an AI company headquartered in New York City[8] that was accepted into Y Combinator's Summer 2026 batch[3][7]. The company describes itself as the first AI-native operating system for the restaurant back-of-house[2], addressing operational challenges in food service establishments. According to the company's description, restaurants traditionally rely on disconnected systems, spreadsheets, and manual processes that result in significant industry costs[6]. Marble's platform integrates computer vision and voice AI to capture inventory levels, uses machine learning models for demand forecasting, and deploys AI agents to automate workflows including procurement, scheduling, and menu engineering[6]. The company was founded in 2026[9] and operates with a team of two[10].
About
- Marble is the first AI-native operating system for the restaurant back-of-house. Restaurants, cafes and bars still run on a patchwork of disconnected point solutions, spreadsheets, clipboards and tribal knowledge, which costs the industry billions each year in stockouts, food waste, and lost profit. Marble replaces that entire stack with one system. Computer vision and voice AI capture real-time inventory levels 90% faster than manual counts, ML models forecast item-level demand at 97% accuracy, and AI agents run dozens of end-to-end workflows autonomously, from procurement and invoice reconciliation to scheduling, food prep, menu engineering, and more.[6]
