WHY INVEST

Built by Farmers. Backed by
Industry. Ready to Scale.

Founded by a third-generation Kansas farmer, Greenfield Robotics is building autonomous robots to remove chemicals in agriculture. Manufactured with Amity Technology and already deployed on farms across 16 states, Greenfield is scaling robotics assembled in America for the future of farming.

Since our last raise closed in February, we built and delivered every 2026 robot. We launched a voice and text app so farmers can monitor and control their robots from a phone, and added territory leaders in four regions. We’re raising now to scale our technology, grow the team, and build the next version of the platform.

MARKET OPPORTUNITY

The Agricultural Robotics Market
is Increasing 3X by 2030.

A global shift toward precision agriculture is accelerating adoption of autonomous systems across diverse farming environments.

Farmers are facing rising input costs, herbicide resistance, and increasing pressure to reduce chemical use while maintaining large-scale production efficiency.

Autonomous farming is moving from concept to deployment. What was once experimental can now operate across acreage at commercial scale, opening the door for a new generation of field systems built around precision, efficiency, and reduced chemical dependence.

OUR SOLUTION

One Platform.
Multiple Operations.

BOTONY™ is an autonomous field system that uses computer vision to deliver mechanical weed control at commercial scale.

What begins with between-row, herbicide-free weeding is expanding into a broader field operations platform for commercial agriculture. The system is designed to perform multiple tasks across the crop cycle.

THE PROBLEM

The Hidden Cost of Herbicides

Farmers were sold efficiency. The cost showed up in their families, their land, and their communities.

OUR ORIGIN STORY

Built for the Man Who
Taught Him to Farm

Tony Brauer farmed in Kansas. He sprayed what every farmer around him sprayed. Roundup. Paraquat. The stuff sold by the gallon at every co-op in the country. Then his hands started shaking. Parkinson’s took the rest, slowly.

Clint watched his father’s body fail him. He read studies that he believed linked long-term herbicide exposure to the disease. He saw the more than 6,000 lawsuits filed against paraquat manufacturers, many by farmers and farm families who believed the chemical contributed to Parkinson’s. And he made a decision. He believed no son should have to watch this happen to his dad if another way existed. So he built one.

The flagship robot is called BOTONY™. Look at the letters: T-O-N-Y. It’s named for Tony Brauer, the man who taught Clint how to farm and whose experience shaped Clint’s mission. Every BOTONY™ that rolls into a field carries his name. Every acre managed without chemical drift is worked in his memory.

Tony Brauer

Greenfield exists to eliminate herbicides from agriculture by giving growers a scalable alternative to chemical weed control — helping move the industry toward a safer, healthier, more regenerative future.

Clean Food Starts in the Field

Most farmers don’t want to spray—they rely on glyphosate because it is the most cost-effective, predictable way to control weeds.

Now there is a new option. Autonomous systems can replace the need to spray, giving farmers a way to manage weeds without relying on chemical inputs while maintaining the scale, speed, and precision modern farming requires.

Every robot we deploy moves us closer to our mission of removing chemical inputs from the food supply.

ON THE NATIONAL STAGE

Standing With the People
Reshaping American Food

Recently, Clint Brauer and Robot #103 traveled to Bandera, Texas for American Regeneration, the invitation-only summit hosted by Acres USA. Clint shared the stage with the Secretary of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, RFK Jr., and other leaders working to change how America grows its food.

Neither the event or HHS’s participation in this event does not constitute an endorsement of the offering.

Designed and
Assembled in the USA

We started in a family barn in Kansas and built our first systems through constant field iteration. Today, we are manufacturing with established partners and deploying across commercial farms in multiple states.

USA MANUFACTURING PARTNER

Backed by AgManufacturing
Pioneer Howard Dahl

Third-generation agricultural manufacturing leader Howard Dahl brings decades of innovation, operational expertise, and industry credibility to Greenfield Robotics as both a manufacturing partner and investor.

Through Amity Technology, Dahl helped pioneer modern no-till seeding equipment and build one of the most respected agricultural machinery companies in North America. We believe his partnership strengthens Greenfield Robotics’ ability to scale durable, field-ready autonomous systems.

VOICE CONTROLLED

Meet a Farmer’s
New Teammate

Our robots are voice and text controlled, and farmers can even name them. This enables farmers to easily control their fleet and get real time updates.

A phone-controlled app makes BOTONY™ significantly more practical for real-world farming by putting control in the farmer’s pocket instead of requiring specialized interfaces or in-field operators. Farmers can deploy, monitor, and adjust autonomous operations remotely in real time, fitting naturally into how they already manage large, mobile, day-to-day workflows.

Farmers can even get a live feed and images straight from any bot in their fleet.

FARMER INDEPENDENCE

We Believe in the
Right to Repair

We believe farmers should never be held hostage by repair delays or closed systems.

With our robots, when something needs attention, it can be repaired and replaced quickly in the field with basic tools and clear access to components.

Farmers, with simple training, can easily repair the bots before they arrive on the farm, so they know exactly what needs to be done to keep their fleet active in the fields.
