About

Small Robot Company develops AI-powered agricultural robots and artificial intelligence solutions designed to enhance financial and environmental sustainability in farming through precision agriculture. The company's PerPlant system identifies individual plants in fields, providing per-plant care including precision spraying, mechanical weeding, and crop mapping to reduce chemical usage and improve crop yields. The robotic platform operates as a Robots-as-a-Service model for agriculture, combining autonomous roaming robots with AI-driven plant recognition to deliver targeted interventions at the individual plant level rather than field-wide application. This approach enables farmers to significantly reduce inputs of herbicides and fertilizers while maintaining or improving yields, supporting sustainable farming practices. Founded in 2017 and headquartered in Salisbury, United Kingdom, the company has raised approximately $23.2M in Series B funding. Small Robot differentiates itself through its per-plant precision approach to crop management, using AI to identify and treat individual plants rather than treating entire fields uniformly, delivering both environmental and economic benefits for farmers.
