Physical automation to transform industry and move the world
Atoms is Travis Kalanick's industrial-automation holding company — City Storage Systems renamed in March 2026 — built on top of CloudKitchens, the delivery-only "ghost kitchen" business he started after leaving Uber. It now spans three divisions: CloudKitchens, the food-robotics unit Lab37, and Pronto, the autonomous heavy-industry vehicle company formerly run by Anthony Levandowski that Atoms acquired in March 2026. Kalanick frames it as an OEM building "atoms-based computers" — software, sensors, robotics and AI that automate whole physical industries, from commercial kitchens to mining to transport. The $15B valuation on this row is the November 2021 CloudKitchens mark; the July 2026 round's post-money has not been disclosed.
