href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/marclore\">Marc Lore<\/a> said Wonder will enable this with its locations that are equipped with a \u201cprogrammable cooking platform\u201d that currently cooks meals from 25 restaurants.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The AI tool that Wonder plans to roll out by the end of the year will build a restaurant based on the customer\u2019s description of what they want. The AI will create the name, branding, description, pictures, pricing, health information and recipes. The new restaurant will then go live at Wonder locations.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Lore said the customers using this service could be \u201canybody that has the ability to drive demand.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cIt could be a mega influencer, anyone that wants to monetize their following, or it could be a private trainer that wants to make specific bowls,\u201d Lore said. \u201cIt could be a not-for-profit. It could be Disney for their new movie. Anybody can make a restaurant.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Lore added that people could build restaurants for their own families.<\/p><div id=\"pymnt-3298654600\" class=\"pymnt-content pymnt-entity-placement\" style=\"margin-top: 50px;\"><p style=\"text-align:center\">Advertisement: Scroll to Continue<\/p><script async type=\"text\/javascript\" id=\"dianomi_context_script\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dianomi.com\/js\/contextfeed.js\"><\/script> \r\n<div class=\"dianomi_context\" data-dianomi-context-id=\"4329\"><\/div><\/div>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wonder currently offers brick-and-mortar stores in which the front of house has 10 or 20 seats and a fast casual look, while the back has the programmable cooking platform that cook meals from 25 restaurants offering a variety of cuisine, Lore said.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The company has 120 locations today and aims to have 400 next year and 1,000 by 2035.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cNow it\u2019s really about adding more automation to the back of house to get better consistency, higher throughput, better quality food, and then to open up the aperture so that Wonder creators at the end of this year can start building their own restaurants on the Wonder platform,\u201d Lore said.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">PYMNTS reported in December 2021 that Lore, who previously founded Jet.com and served as Walmart U.S. eCommerce president and CEO, launched Wonder as a mobile \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.pymnts.com\/restaurant-innovation\/2021\/marc-lores-wonder-ghost-kitchen-concept-one-ups-aggregators-with-doorside-food-prep\/\">on-demand home dining<\/a>\u201d experience that combined food trucks and ghost kitchens and signed deals with top chefs to bring gourmet kitchens to customers\u2019 doors.<\/p>\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n<script>\r\n\twindow.pymntsAllowedArticleCount = 1;\r\n\twindow.pymntsPostID = 3711330;\r\n<\/script>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Wonder plans to offer an artificial intelligence tool that will enable people to create restaurants that will operate through Wonder\u2019s existing infrastructure that offers meals from different restaurants within each location.
