Founded in 2020, Jupe is a seed-stage housing manufacturing start up self-described as "building a universal autonomous housing platform for 1.5 billion humans". Jupe is creating a flat-packed off-grid technology that allows a village to be set up in hours, anywhere on the planet, unlocking what was considered unusable land. With ‘skateboard chassis’ tech inspired by the electric vehicle industry, Jupe is able to flat pack and transport living units and infrastructure 100X cheaper, manufacture 30X faster, and at 10X lower cost relative to a volumetric modular ADU/living unit. Jupe was part of the Y-Combinator 2021 cohort. Jupe's first product - the one-bed "Jupe Single" - has been deployed around California as Airbnb rental lodging.
