other · 2026-08-17

Cheffy, a new tech startup, has unveiled the EGOR (Efficient Gastronomic Operational Robot), engineered to enhance breakfast preparation. This innovative appliance features a specialized tube that allows it to crack eggs directly into a pan without leaving shells behind. EGOR can prepare eggs in seven different styles, including sunny side up and hard boiled, and it is capable of frying two eggs or boiling six at once. Additionally, it pairs with TOASTR, a smart toaster for bagels. The Kickstarter campaign for EGOR surpassed its funding goal within seven minutes and has attracted over 3,000 supporters, concluding in late August, with shipments set for December 2026.
