Overview

Tech Magic develops cooking and business-operation robots that tightly integrate hardware and AI-driven software to automate kitchen workflows and food-factory tasks while preserving taste and service quality. Its products target restaurant kitchens, central kitchens and food factories, automating cooking steps, dish sorting, portioning, processing and transport. The company positions its robots as partner devices that augment human capability rather than merely replacing workers. Founded in February 2018 and headquartered in Tokyo, Tech Magic announced a ¥2.54 billion Series C that increases cumulative third‑party allotment funding to ¥4.4 billion. Proceeds are earmarked for strengthening hardware and software R&D, creating new food-experience businesses, preparing for mass production and maintenance of cooking robots, and ramping hiring across development, production and sales. Strategic investors and industry partners named in the announcement are expected to support commercialization and broader deployment across the food industry.
