The paradigm shift unlocked
Our mission
Imagine a future where automation technology intersects with one of humanity's most essential necessities – the need to nourish ourselves. A reality where advanced robotics and AI systems autonomously craft quality meals on-demand, empowering equitable access to affordable sustenance anywhere.
This future is already happening – and it's where Circus Group is leading a monumental shift. We aren't just enhancing existing systems, but entirely redefining how humanity nourishes itself. Our mission: Nothing less than to fuel humanity.
The company
At Circus Group, we are pioneering global developments in on-demand autonomous food production – which marks an era yet to be fully understood and discovered. Everything from creation to production and operation, enabled by seamlessly integrated cutting-edge robotics and transformative AI technology. This is not just an evolution. It's a complete overhaul of the world as we knew it.
Our foundation rests on the extensive developments of groundbreaking robotics driven by artificial intelligence – the missing link to achieving truly autonomous food production on a global scale. This is not just an evolution. It's a complete overhaul of the world as we knew it.
We believe that steering powerful tech innovations to enable richer, fuller lives for people worldwide is a profound moral responsibility of our time. As these new technologies advance fast, it's on us to develop them as positive forces for humanity's good. Drawing from decades of combined expertise across state-of-the-art technologies and the global food service industry, our team is uniquely positioned to spearhead this transformative mission.
By shaping their trajectory now, we can open up new frontiers of human potential. This is the vision that drives Circus Group's food tech solutions. Our technology liberates valuable time from the daily grind of nourishment. We provide equal access to affordable, quality meals on-demand. But we are doing more than just disrupting food service – we are sparking a paradigm shift where technology optimizes resources in radically new ways to create a wealth of opportunity for people to live more fully.
Our roadmap to fueling humanity
The opportunity
For decades, the food service industry has grappled with systemic inefficiencies: ever-growing labor shortages, rising costs and inconsistent quality, just to name a few. On the other hand, billions of people spend hours each week just thinking, planning, preparing, and organizing meals. What should be an enjoyable pastime often becomes a stressful chore when juggling work, family, and nutritional needs.
Now, we have a unique opportunity and momentum to not only enhance existing models but entirely redefine how humanity accesses quality, affordable nourishment through transformative autonomous ecosystems.
We pioneer these integrated food tech solutions to spark the most profound industry shift in generations. In the same way that autonomous driving vehicles are disrupting the way we build cities and organize our days, we will shift our reality and habits around daily nutrition. Shaping a reality where equitable access to delicious, nutritious food empowers humanity's fullest potential.
We aren't just launching new products, but completely reframing life's landscapes. By automating the fundamental human need for nutritious, delicious, and affordable meals, Circus changes how people gather, live, and interact. We optimize resources, open up spaces, and serve quality, affordable meals to empower people to live more fully.
We are forging the future of food service through the synergy of three transformative solution pillars:
This is how we create a substantial part of humanity's positive future – where transformative technology serves people. With Circus Group, true food service autonomy is unlocked and ready to scale.
How we’ll get there
Since founding Circus Group in 2021, we have devoted immense resources to robotics research and development. Our dedicated team of now over 80 industry experts across four locations has successfully created and rigorously tested multiple generations of our flagship CA-1 food production robot. With over 2,000 hours of aggregated testing data under real market conditions, we have fine-tuned CA-1 to achieve full operational autonomy today.
Achieving our transformative vision is an ongoing journey. One that drives us to continuously push the boundaries of what's possible in food service automation. We are relentlessly driving advancements across these areas:
Advancing autonomy
Accelerating towards full food service autonomy, we are running CA-1 under real market conditions while extending its self-monitoring capabilities through advanced computer vision. With enhanced AI for predicting operational risks and food safety, CA-1 will soon operate autonomously with only remote monitoring. Ultimately, we will integrate fail-safe systems enabling CA-1 to operate without human oversight at all – unlocking complete robotic food service autonomy.
Volume manufacturing
As we transition towards global serial production of CA-1, our focus is building the infrastructure and partnerships to support rapid scalability while upholding the highest quality standards. We have created a patented, CE-certified technology that complies with stringent global regulations. Continuous optimization of CA-1 for volume manufacturing remains a focus – enhancing unit economics, hardware costs, throughput capacity, and maintenance complexity.
Market expansion
Underscoring our commitment to making high-quality, affordable meals accessible globally, we are scaling our solution across new markets. With over 140,000 organic waitlist installs in Germany alone and over 500 viable locations identified EU-wide, in the USA and even thousands of application options, we are primed to rapidly expand our transformative culinary concepts internationally.
Ultimately, all these efforts aim to merge the art of cooking and the science of technology to create a world that thinks about food differently than it has for thousands of years. A world where food means something new. Fueling humanity with AI-robotics.
