Gaius.AI innovates food mass-manufacturing equipment.
Answering to the inefficiencies of the $250B food extrusion industry, our patented technology decreases manufacturing costs by up to 15% and improves quality in some of the biggest categories – snacks, cereals, pet food and meat alternatives. We revolutionise food factories to provide cheaper, better and more sustainable manufacturing.
We are the first and only company to have developed an AI-platform that innovates throughout the entire extrusion process. The future of manufacturing puts data, and not machine, at the centre. We do that with food extrusion.
Autonomous Production
Imagine a future with decentralised and accessible food manufacturing. Imagine more stable production, with far less ingredient and energy waste. This is the future of AI enhanced food production.

Food Extrusion
Extruders transform diverse raw materials into a variety of final products using heat, pressure, and shear forces, producing fibrous, elastic textures. This is the primary technology that has served a large portion of the food industry at mass-scale for decades, manufacturing a variety of products including snacks, cereals, pasta, pet food and meat alternatives.
Gaius.AI develops Smart Extrusion™: a cost-efficient and energy-effective solution for food manufacturers that increases production rate, reduces cost, improves the quality, stabilizes production processes and enables the efficient development of novel foods.
Market
Extrusion plays a crucial role in the food industry, enabling the production of a wide range of food products with specific textures, shapes and mouthfeel. It is extensively used for creating food products such as puffed snacks, breakfast cereals, pasta, plant-based meat alternatives and snack bars. Moreover, it is used for the production of fish and pet foods. The versatility of extrusion technology allows for precise control over the cooking process, ingredient composition, and product characteristics, leading to efficient manufacturing and consistent product quality.

Meat.The End was founded in 2020 as a B2B ingredient company with a mission to create meat alternatives with far better texture at a lower cost. Meat.The End successfully completed this mission, and today, products based on its ingredients are the best in the world, beating leading market competitors in professional sensory panels world-wide.
Today, Meat.The End sells to multi-national food companies around the globe. You can find products based on Meat.The End's ingredients at leading retailers and QSRs in Asia, Europe and soon the Americas. Meat.The End's research - entitled Smart Extrusion™ - focused on plant protein extrusion. This patented technology is now ready to reach beyond plant protein to significantly larger industries.
This is why we established Gaius.AI: to continue developing Smart Extrusion™ in order to make it accessible for other food producers worldwide.
Gaius.AI was founded in 2023 and we expect that already in 2024 we will start selling our technology by licensing to food manufacturers that are active in the field of extrusion.

The market and what would happen to the world when AI will enter the manufacturing industry
The emergence of the Industrial Internet of Things (IoT) has brought about a technological revolution that is reshaping industries across the globe. By connecting physical devices to the digital world and enabling them to communicate with each other and share data, industrial IoT has brought about a new era of efficiency and connectivity in the manufacturing sector. Furthermore, when combined with Artificial Intelligence (AI), industrial IoT transcends mere automation, enabling businesses to achieve unprecedented levels of productivity, cost savings and innovation.
Industrial internet of things (IIoT) & how it changes the world.
The industrial revolutions mark significant milestones in human history, with each one propelling humanity into new eras of progress and innovation as well as drastically changing the socioeconomic structure of human society. These revolutions, defined by rapid advancements in technology, production methods and societal changes, have shaped the trajectory of human civilisation.
The Evolution of a Revolution
Machine learning is a form of artificial intelligence that focuses on the development of algorithms that enable computer systems to learn from data and make decisions without explicit programming. In summary, it involves training a machine learning model with data to recognize patterns, extract insights and make informed predictions or take certain actions.
Machine learning has emerged as a transformative technology with application across a broad range of industries, including food manufacturing. By leveraging algorithms and data analysis, machine learning has the potential to revolutionize the way food is produced, processed and distributed; it can enhance efficiency, quality, control and safety across the entire value chain.
What is Machine Learning and how is it relevant to food manufacturing?
