FAQ:
- Q: 1) Given that you are patent pending, can you share what extraction breakthroughs you have discovered since the work in the 80s to extract "Fraction I protein" later renamed "RuBisCO" from other plant's leaves? 2) What kind of inputs (water, chemicals, energy) do the processin...
  A: Thanks William, great questions. Let me take them in order and be upfront where I have to hold something back. 1) Extraction breakthroughs: The 70s/80s work proved you could extract RuBisCO from leaves, but those processes weren't built for food; the material wasn't clean, white, or functional enough at a workable cost. What's changed since is better separation science, better preservation of protein functionality through processing, and a sharper view of which feedstocks make the economics w...
- Q: Hi Udi, Thanks for the detailed previous response to William— really appreciate you being upfront about what you can and can’t share publicly. I’m still trying to understand the commercial side of the opportunity a bit better, especially around scale-up and cost competitivenes...
  A: Hi Jonathan, Good questions. Let's hop on a call to discuss. You can email me at udi@fudiprotein.com to schedule. Here is where things stand at a high level, with the caveat that a few specifics sit in commercially sensitive territory and are better covered in a data room or under NDA. 1. Extraction yield. We will have firmer numbers once pilot data is in hand. I am not putting specific extraction ratios in writing yet, since they sit at the core of our process IP, but I am comfortable saying...

- Hard truth: Food manufacturing is HARD. Making a physical ingredient requires a lot of resources. But thankfully we know how to do it, and have done it many times before. WeFunder investors truly help us make it happen, since capital is one of the most important keys to unlock ability to bring our protein to market. Thanks!
