Our Mission

To develop next-generation, AI-ready transmission systems that revolutionize the mechanical systems they become part of.

At Varionova, we believe that transmission technology has remained largely unchanged for too long. Traditional transmissions offer high efficiency but lack flexibility. Conventional CVTs provide continuous variation but suffer from poor efficiency and limited torque capacity.

We've created something fundamentally different: the world's first commercially viable, gear-based CVT. Our RatioZero technology combines the efficiency of traditional gears with the smooth, stepless control of a CVT, opening up countless new possibilities across industries.
