## Deployments

_No deployments registered for this model._

## Manufacturer-attributed media (1)

_Manufacturer-supplied at the model level; not tied to an independently verified named-site deployment. Verification posture is product-showcase from the maker._

Nala Robotics' footage of its Pizzaiola, a seven-axis robotic arm in a self-contained cell that stretches dough, tops, bakes, and slices pizza. Nala markets it as 'fully autonomous' with 'zero human intervention'; this is the maker's claim and is overstated, the real mechanism being a pre-programmed arm following recipe routines. Deployments are unverified.


## Supply chain

_No verified supply relationships on file. Supply-chain coverage is being added across the registry; check back as the seed populates this model's suppliers._

_Suppliers appear when verified with at least two strong sources. Sources are append-only; corrections add new sources rather than rewrite history._

## Common questions

### What is Nala Pizzaiola?

7-axis pizza robot marketed as 'fully autonomous'. vvc: appears script/recipe-based (fixed sequences, ~50 pizzas/hour, NLP voice ordering) rather than vision-guided adaptive manipulation; no named restaurant/chain deployments independently verified (honest-absence on deployments).

### Who makes Nala Pizzaiola?

Nala Pizzaiola is made by Nala Robotics, based in Arlington Heights, Illinois, USA, founded in 2017.

### Where is Nala Pizzaiola deployed?

No verified deployments of Nala Pizzaiola are currently on the DEPLOY registry. DEPLOY records deployments only when verified at a named site with a primary source; absence may reflect pre-deployment, research, or manufacturer-internal use.

### What is Nala Pizzaiola's maturity stage?

Nala Pizzaiola is at the pilot stage on the DEPLOY maturity ladder (research, prototype, pilot, commercial, production). Pilot stage means at least one named-customer trial deployment is verified.
