The brief

Analyst view

• Greeneye's AI system reduces non-residual herbicide use, typically by 65–92% compared to broadcast spraying, while cutting costs.
• The company raised a Series A of $22M in 2022 to launch commercial operations in North America across corn and soybean crops.
• The system retrofits existing boom sprayers, allowing farmers to reduce chemical use and costs without major equipment changes.

Technical approach

As reported

Vision

Real-time weed detection

Cameras mounted on spraying booms capture 40 frames per second, classifying individual plants to species level and distinguishing weeds from crops.

Control

Selective spray activation

AI identifies weeds in real time and triggers solenoid valves on individual nozzles, spraying only the weeds while leaving crops untouched.

Compatibility

Retrofit any boom sprayer

Greeneye integrates into any commercial boom sprayer without major hardware changes, lowering adoption cost.
