Local manufacturing. Local support. The simplest robot you’ll ever use. Pika’s Farm Table chose Standard Bots to automate dough portioning — a process where consistency mattered, but preserving the artisanal quality of their baked goods mattered just as much. “We liked the idea of a cobot going in. We didn’t have a ton of background in it. Eventually, we chose Standard Bots because of their manufacturing here in the U.S.” Built in Glen Cove, NY, our robots come with support close to home. And because we make robots simple, the path from unboxing to running a job is short — even if you’ve never worked with a robot before.

“It’s not about replacing jobs.” At Pika's Farm Table, a Standard Bots robot took over dough portioning — a process that doesn't affect the artisanal quality of their baked goods. Employees can now focus on processes that drive all the qualities they're known for: craft and finesse.

3x throughput per employee, with artisans still doing what they do best. That’s the mission that Pika’s Farm Table set out on with a Standard Bots Core robot. The family-owned bakery didn't want to automate away the artisanal quality of their product. They wanted to grow production with the team they already had. Pika's Farm Table needed a flexible robot with a small footprint for tight spaces, and a support team that could actually show up. That's us. Right now, the robot handles dough portioning — freeing up the team to focus on the parts that need a human touch. Watch the full story:

Every May for Global Month of Volunteering, tens of thousands of our teammates around the world show up for the communities where we live and work. Was lucky to join a group of them to prep meals at Community Lunch on Capitol Hill in Seattle, a nonprofit that serves free, made-from-scratch meals to low-income and unhoused community members. We spent the morning chopping lettuce, peeling carrots, dicing onions, portioning fruit and overnight oats, mashing potatoes, and making salads, helping the kitchen crew get ready to serve 200-300 neighbors (something they've been doing every weekday for more than 40 years). Nearly 2,000 Amazonians have volunteered here since our partnership started in 2023. It's great to see our teammates partner in their communities. Last year, Amazonians participated in more than 500,000 volunteer activities across 55 countries: helping restore polluted ecosystems, joining classrooms to teach students about AI, supporting local food banks, and helping neighborhoods recover from wildfires, just to name a few. Proud of all our teammates across the company who make this kind of commitment, not just during Global Month of Volunteering, but all year round. It makes a meaningful difference for a lot of folks.
