Other than being a "silicon valley drink maker", there's almost nothing alike. Juicero is honestly closer to something like a Nespresso than this. What juicero claimed to do was "press" the fresh juice out of special pods, which just ended up being normal pods that you could press with your hands even.

The promise of this is being able to have hundreds of drink come out of a single small device, not sure how that's anything like buying individual juice pods.

Juicero didn't fail because it was juice packets. It failed because of the ludicrous business model. I'd wager Juicero would be fine if they would have just sold a refillable high-end juicer.
