    AI Smart Coolers: What It Is

    An AI smart cooler is a glass-door refrigerator you unlock with a card or phone. You open the door, take what you want, close it, and the cooler charges you for exactly what you removed — no spirals, no drop bin.

    AI Smart Coolers FAQ

    What if someone takes something and doesn't pay?

    The cooler only unlocks after a valid card is read, and it charges for whatever is removed before the door closes.

    Can we stock fresh food?

    Yes, where turnover supports it. We start conservative and expand the fresh mix as sales prove out.

    How is it different from a regular vending machine?

    You handle the product before buying, which works better for fresh items and larger packaging.
