Scythe Robotics, a Longmont, Colorado, CO-based provider of commercial-grade autonomous solutions, raised $42M in Series B funding.
The round was led by Energy Impact Partners with participation from ArcTern Ventures, Alumni Ventures, and Amazon’s Alexa Fund, True Ventures, Inspired Capital.
The company intends to use the funds to meet the demand for its all-electric, fully autonomous M.52 mower placed by commercial landscape businesses nationwide.
Led by CEO Jack Morrison, Scythe Robotics provides the commercial landscape industry with commercial-grade, all-electric autonomous equipment solutions for more sustainably maintaining outdoor environments. With a battery designed to mow all day on a single charge, the latest generation of Scythe M.52 has increased durability to stand up to the demands of landscape operations and additional computing power for even more advanced autonomy. The mower features a suite of sensors that enable it to operate safely in dynamic environments by identifying and responding to the presence of humans, animals and other potential obstacles. Simultaneously, it captures property and mower performance data, which helps landscape contractors improve workflow, identify upsell opportunities, schedule more efficiently and manage labor costs.
Scythe M.52 units have already been deployed to customer operations in Texas and are currently rolling out to customers in Florida.
