In this revolutionary age there are two things that brought about a massive change in the way people invest or spend their money - Internet and Blockchain. The first one brought the world together and blockchain has further made the internet powerful by making it all the more secure. Almost all industries and sectors have adapted to these ground-breaking technologies. Robotics being one of the newest and the least intervened sector is still on its way to major innovations. With a promising future that will take over all the assets, Robotic is covering a broader horizon for investors looking for tangible assets to put their money in.
Kepler has an ambitious vision that goes beyond blockchain and being able to provide a decentralized wealth distribution system within the AI and robotics industry.
Kepler proposes to create a global marketplace platform for investing in robotics and AI technology and build a high-tech robotics complex (“Kepler City”) where they will have virtually everything needed to build robots from cradle to crave (idea > research > prototype > production).
The complex will consist of the following:
Kepler Universe Platform
Mega Lab (One of the worlds’ most advanced, high-tech Lab)
Mega Factory
AI Platform (AI development)
Technical College
“Kepler City” Autonomous Hotel and Restaurant Network
Correct me if I’m wrong, but that sounds a lot like Skynet! Super-cool now, but perhaps not so cool in the future 😊. But who knows what the future will hold and look at the here and now.
Kepler’s vision doesn’t come cheap. Their goal is to raise 250,000,000 USD. If achieved, their ICO will be rank at one of the top ICOs of all-time. I think they have a great shot. Their value proposition is off the charts.
Kepler isn’t messing around. They have some pretty incredible advantages and benefits. The most important is their geographical placement: Georgia. According to one report (2017 World Bank Report) Georgia ranks as one of the most attractive countries to do business with. Here are a few big reasons why:
TRADE. Kepler will be built in Georgia where it has the support of the government and free trade agreements with countries such as China, EU, and Post-Soviet Union.
TAX. Georgian tax reform accrues zero corporate income tax for Kepler, automatically translating into an additional 20% capital gain for the company each year.
MANPOWER. It is widely known that China offers the cheapest workforce. However, when it comes to the cheapest technical workforce, Georgia trips the chart by 40%!
GOVERNMENT POLICY. The Georgian government is very friendly to new start-ups and investments within Georgia. Through the Georgian Government new policy, Kepler Technologies will save money on building its physical properties. Kepler will be exempt from corporate income tax for 5-10 years, through the new amendments in the Georgian tax code.
While location is a big advantage, it’s not the only one. The following list is a summary of Kepler’s overall value propositions:
Growing demand for cutting-edge technology and AI solutions
A world-class management team with credible qualifications in their fields.
A fair and reliable platform with transparency and security
Immovable property transferred from the Government of Georgia free of charge
80% of the company income will be used for reinvestments, from which a sizable amount will be used to buy back the tokens from token owners
KEP will allow token holders to directly purchase any product developed by Kepler
KEP can be easily exchanged or liquidated as needed
KEP will offer value and utilization based on the different stages of project implementation.
Kepler will adopt blockchain technology to tie developers, customers, and investors under their Kepler Universe Platform. Here is their business model:
In addition, Kepler will institute an incubator program. Investors will be able to diversify their portfolio by investing in the patents and products of incubators through Kepler’s token - KEP. In other words, KEP owners will be instrumental in deciding which products or services to build.
KEP will be the currency for all settlement on the ecosystem and used to purchase such things as robots, licenses, subscription services for AI, LAB projects presented by third parties or the Kepler R&D staff, and products in all other partnership ventures within the autonomous hotel and restaurant network.
The Kepler Universe platform will ensure liquidity of KEP tokens by backing it with tangible assets such as lands, construction sites, high-tech lab equipment, products, technical know-how, and the Kepler University that will enroll students from around the world.
Lastly, 80% of the income realized from all the projects and economics activities will be distributed back to KEP investors who invested in the specific project.
Road-map for Kepler: In the first quarter of 2018, Kepler aims to acquire 550 000 square meters of land to establish its Kepler complex from the government itself for 1$. The first quarter will also see the approval of designs and construction for the lab and mega-factory by every authority needed. The alpha stage of Kepler platform will be formed by the third quarter of 2018. Along with the alpha stage the extensive research on various types of robotics and AI solutions will be done to determine the kinds of projects that will in included on the Kepler’s platform in the third quarter of 2018. The construction of the mega factory will also be finished by the third quarter of 2018. Kepler will finally see its launch in the fourth quarter of 2018 followed by the launch of fully equipped lab by the first quarter of 2019. The opening of Mega-factory will be held around the third quarter of 2019 along with the launch of the ultimate production cycle. The official opening of the Kepler complex will be in the first quarter of 2020.
I’m not a robotics expert, but Kepler said that they will utilize analytics, data science, and predictive algorithms to provide investors with the tools needed to assess projects. However, investing in robotic technology, or anything for that matter, is not a 100% guarantee that it will succeed. KEP owners should expect that most of the KEP projects will be a bust rather than a success. While KEP will hold value in other aspects within the ecosystem, it might be difficult for the average person, like myself, to know exactly how to use and manage their KEP holdings.
Crypto investors can be impatient. While KEP’s worth grow in value over time, the facilities won’t be complete until 2020. However, the Lab will be complete in 2019. Until then, I predict KEP will be a bumpy ride until the ecosystem is complete.
There are probably other risks/concerns, but those are the ones I can think of off the top of my head.
Regardless, the Kepler project is grand in scale and worth consideration. Kepler also looks like they have built a great management team and group of advisers.
Overall, Kepler looks like a great opportunity. I plan to participate in their ICO and I recommend you consider the project as well.
I hope this post will increase awareness and make you want to learn more about the project.
