Executive Summary

JAVIS (Just a Very Intelligent System) is a startup focusing on emerging technologies and retailing. The company’s purpose is to transform the way people live, work, and play with emerging technologies. It aims to disrupt the global bubble tea market—with a global size potential of S$200 billion—by fully automating freshly brewed bubble tea production.

JAVIS solves the problem of “big demand and limited supply” in an underserved market that appears crowded and competitive through “Jupiter”—the world’s first fully automated bubble tea ecosystem.

JAVIS’ use of emerging technologies enables:

• Pre-orders using mobile devices and scheduled pickups
• 24/7 operations and freshly brewed bubble tea production
• Delivery of consistent quality and great taste
• Creation of higher-value jobs
• A small footprint of 2m x 1.5m, enabling convenient locations
• Contactless human-to-human interaction (anti-COVID-19 initiative)
