Scythe, a startup that has developed an electric robotic lawn mower, has raised $42 million in a recent funding round. The funding was led by Lux Capital and also included participation from previous investors including Playground Global and Slow Ventures.
The company’s robotic mower, called “Scythe Robo Mower,” utilizes artificial intelligence and machine learning to navigate and mow lawns efficiently. The device can be controlled via a smartphone app and can be scheduled to mow at specific times or on a regular basis.
The robotic mower market is a growing industry, with several companies competing to develop the most advanced and user-friendly devices. However, Scythe’s technology sets it apart by using AI and machine learning to optimize the mowing process. This results in a more efficient and precise mowing experience for the user.
Scythe plans to use the new funding to continue developing and improving its technology, as well as expand its sales and marketing efforts. The company also plans to increase its team and open new offices in the United States and Europe.
The company’s CEO, Mark Moline, said in a statement, “Our team has worked tirelessly to develop a product that not only improves the mowing experience but also reduces the carbon footprint associated with traditional gasoline-powered lawn mowers.” He added that the company is “excited to take the next step in our journey to revolutionize the lawn care industry.”
The Robo Mower has been well received by early adopters and Scythe has received positive feedback from its customers. The company has reported that its robotic mower has been able to reduce the amount of time and effort required for traditional lawn maintenance while also reducing the environmental impact of gas-powered lawn mowers.
In conclusion
Scythe’s electric robotic lawn mower, which uses AI and machine learning to optimize the mowing process, has raised $42 million in a recent funding round. The company plans to use the funding to continue developing and improving its technology, expand its sales and marketing efforts, and open new offices in the United States and Europe.
