About TUM Carbon Removal Initiative e.V.

The TUM Carbon Removal Initiative e.V. has set itself the goal of actively contributing to climate protection with innovative carbon dioxide removal technologies (Direct Air Capture). Given the increasing CO2 emissions and their impact on the climate, it is essential not only to reduce emissions but also to remove CO2 that has already been released from the atmosphere. After three years of research, we are now developing a pilot plant that will remove several tons of CO2 directly from the atmosphere annually. Our team consists of 40 dedicated students from the Technical University of Munich (TUM) who are working with passion and technical expertise toward a more sustainable future. As a non-profit association, we depend on support and funding to successfully advance our mission.

curly

curly scales qualitative customer research with voice AI. Our AI conducts empathetic & natural interviews with hundreds of participants in parallel — fully automated. Companies define their research questions; curly conducts structured voice interviews and synthesizes results into actionable insights. Unlike surveys, curly captures nuances through intelligent follow-up questions (4–5x more insights than static questionnaires). Unlike manual interviews, curly scales to hundreds of conversations simultaneously. Setup takes minutes, first results are available within hours. The analysis is both qualitative and quantitative — including statistical analyses & significance testing. The result: the depth of real conversations, combined with the scale effects and analytical robustness of a large-scale study. Customer research has been an expensive, slow project so far. curly turns it into a continuous system — for product managers, founders, and researchers who want to base decisions on real customer insights rather than gut feeling. Our vision: a customer intelligence OS that empowers companies to act truly customer-centric — not once, but continuously.
