Corporate marketagricultureCurated record

Plant-by-Plant™ AI Software processes real-time imagery from onboard cameras to distinguish soil, crops, and weeds at centimetre resolution; 156 precision nozzles fire individually on a 6×6 cm footprint, reducing herbicide use by up to 95%. The system is tractor-towed, not self-propelled, but is AI-directed and fully operator-unsupervised during field missions. Software roadmap includes 12 new crop-specific algorithms launching in 2026; company explicitly 'doubled down on AI software' after its $150M Series C+D (October 2025).
