Artificially Intelligent Robotic Bartender and Smart App Reinvent the Social Drinking Experience at the Touch of a Button
Monsieur, the company that has developed the world’s first artificially intelligent robotic bartender, today announced the launch of a new in-home product – Monsieur for Home, which expertly crafts everyone’s favorite cocktails and spirits, made to their exact specifications. Monsieur incorporates sleek hardware and a companion smart application for iOS and Android devices, making drinks that are precisely tailored to meet the most discerning tastes, all at the touch of a button.
“Enjoying cocktails and spirits is a fundamental component of social life for many Americans, but the overall social drinking experience has not been innovated in centuries,” said Barry Givens, CEO and co-founder, Monsieur. “The goal of Monsieur is to redefine the social drinking experience by using smart technology to create a personal bartender, assistant and mixologist for everyone – providing an unmatched cocktail experience, anywhere you might be. We’ve also built in features to encourage responsible drinking by monitoring consumption, estimating blood alcohol levels and even helping users order a cab.”
The Monsieur mobile app puts a personal bartender right in the palm of your hand no matter where you are. By seamlessly integrating with home automation systems such as SmartThings via WiFi, Zigbee, or Bluetooth, Monsieur harnesses intelligence to become your very own personal butler. For example, if a person’s favorite sports team wins the big game, Monsieur can offer a celebratory drink. Watching your favorite TV show? Monsieur can recommend the perfect cocktail for that exact moment. It can even detect when you have a date over and offer to make him or her a cocktail too.
Discover New Cocktails From Around the Globe
While the average person is familiar only with a handful of drinks and can make only half that number, Monsieur possesses a vast knowledge of cocktails and can introduce you to thousands of new drinks from around the globe, with no wait or clean-up involved. Monsieur will even crowd source new cocktail recipes from users, and allow them to share these new discoveries with friends. By utilizing Monsieur’s theme packages featuring custom cocktail lists, people can transform their next home party into any environment such as a trendy nightclub in London or Tiki Bar in Hawaii. Monsieur will help people be able to get out of lines and from behind the bar so they can enjoy their social drinking experience to the fullest.
Monsieur Highlights:
· Two models starting at $1499 – 4 or 8 liquid container capacity. Each container holds 30oz of any of your favorite spirits, mixers, juices, liqueurs or even wines.
· Pre-loaded with 12 theme packages, ranging from Tiki Bar to Irish Pub, each with a cocktail list of over 25 drinks – providing immediate access to a library of over 300 drinks.

Personalized Touch – Drinks Made To Your Exact Specifications
Monsieur learns your drink preferences and when you want them, providing a human-like touch allowing for new creations and personalized cocktails made to an individual’s specific preferences. Whether someone prefers their drink to be strong or sweet, Monsieur studies a person’s past drink orders to recommend and prepare the ideal cocktail based on your own personalized taste. Monsieur even detects when you’ve had a long day at work and offers you a double instead of a single.
“We have combined cutting-edge innovations from robotics, home automation, and mobile and applied them to social drinking, one of the world’s favorite pastimes. The result is a new experience foreshadowed by futuristic views from the Jetsons,” said Dr. Paul Judge, chairman, Monsieur.
In addition to use at home, Monsieur can be utilized in business venues including, bars, night clubs, sports arenas, hotels, etc. By allowing people to skip lines, they are able to spend more time socializing with friends while having a high-quality, consistent drink experience made to their exact specifications – each and every time.
