About us

We are an early-stage spin-off from the Chair of Computational Science at ETH Zürich. Our team strives to bring the most advanced algorithms to manufacturing.

Manukai stands for Manu_facturing and Kai_zen, a Japanese methodology of continuous improvement, that translates to “change for better.” In ancient Greek, Kai_ros means “the opportune moment.”
