FAQ

Currently we expect a base of 2000 pre-orders to be required for an economic size of a first plant. However in case of third party investment, the number of required pre-orders could be significantly lower in the region of 100 Rock-Cells.

Auto-replicative carbon removal is a technical approach where a machine-built system produces more of itself — and the replicated material actively incorporates CO₂ and locks it away permanently through petrification. Unlike biological reproduction, which relies on living organisms, auto-replication is driven by machines, 3D printers, and robots, with only minimal external input. In this model, replication is carbon removal. Replication is the sink. You only pay once — the system then grows through demand from future customers, while you continue to earn carbon credits without ongoing storage or operational costs. Even more importantly: auto-replicative carbon removal fuels its own growth. As it scales, it can diversify into other markets — for example, by producing valuable construction materials — turning carbon removal into a self-sustaining, economically productive ecosystem.

No, profits in the future cannot be guaranteed. You become a participant in the production of carbon removal which associated with opportunities and risks. In case there are not sufficient orders for new Rock-Cells, we cannot operate your Rock-Cell for free and it would seize production.

Auto-replication happens when a machine can create more machines with minimal external assistance. For example, 3D printers can print some of their own parts, and robots can assemble parts of other robots. With Rock-Cell, our goal is to reach 90% replication through petrification, requiring only 10% external input from robots, printers, and human labor.

We believe that many technical challenges have already been solved and that we will find pilot customers who see it the same way. Keep in mind that auto-replication is a completely new kind of offering. Scientific validators of our technology cannot anticipate customer reaction and it is not their job, also. But scientific validators can also not approve for state funding, when there is missing clarity about market adoption. We need your commitment to proceed in this journey.

None. You will be listed at the top, but you are not entering into any obligations. You are showing us your appreciation for the product. This is the wind in our sails that we need to realise the market launch.

Well, as new customers pay in advance and this triggers the production of their construction material, there is an inherent risk for existing owners of Rock-Cells, that there is not enough demand for new Rock-Cells to keep their Rock-Cells in operation. A market cannot grow forever and the last buyers could face a situation where they might not reach amortisation of their Rock-Cell as no carbon credits can be generated without operation of their Rock-Cell. This is why we want to upgrade Rock-Cells for being able to produce other goods for other markets. In the case of a stagnating carbon removal market the Rock-Cells might still generate revenue for their owners.
