Artisanal quality at industrial scale.
Shinkei uses robotics to build a world where fishermen thrive, supply chains are transparent, and American food systems restore national vitality.
The State of the Fishing Industry
Two-thirds of all fish harvested never make it to a plate.
Commercial fishing operates with legacy tools and practices largely unchanged since the 1920s. While aerospace lands rockets and AI reshapes industries, systemic inefficiency means most fish never make it to a plate - waste that impacts fisherman, processors, distributors and the American public.
We see a thermodynamic opportunity.
Every fish has a store of energy and freshness the moment it leaves the water. If it struggles and suffers, that energy drains away. If it's harvested instantly, that energy is locked in.
Fish that could last a week at peak quality are reduced to two days of mediocrity.
Taste is a signal.
Taste is a proxy for nutrition.
For centuries Japan has developed artisanal food practices that have compounded into a national advantage — the world's 3rd highest life expectancy and an average IQ 10 points higher than the US. We believe America can once again lead in food innovation, this time by reintroducing craft and quality at scale.
