market profile

  • text: Home cooking robots compete with both automated countertop appliances and high-end robotic kitchens.
  • text: Mirabelle is pre-delivery, taking waitlist signups while planning in-home tests and initial deliveries.

personas

  • title: Time-constrained household cook
    pains:
    • Cooking a healthy dinner requires attention after a long workday.
    • Takeout saves time but does not provide the same freshly cooked home meal.
  • title: Busy parent or household meal planner
    pains:
    • Dinner preparation competes with time with family.
    • Cleanup and counter space determine whether another appliance is practical.

icp

Founders

    title: Founder/CEO
    role: CEO
    bio: Two years ago, I moved from a village in the South of France to Paris. I studied CS and economics. I started building my first startup with Alex and we scaled it to 100k+ users in 6 months. Funny cause it was the Duolingo for finding schools but it made us drop out. We're building Mirabelle (YC W26), your robot chef, to give people back their health and time.
  • name: Alexandre Klobb
    title: Founder/CTO
    role: CTO
    bio: I started freelancing at 15 doing web scraping, then quickly became a full-stack developer and later an AI engineer training ML and deep learning models. I dropped out of computer science school to co-found Meoria, a career-guidance app that helped over 100,000 French students navigate Parcoursup. Now we're building Mirabelle (YC W26), your robot chef, to give people back their health and time.
