Harvest Automation

Harvest Automation builds autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) that automate repetitive spacing, collection, and consolidation tasks in nurseries and greenhouses. Its flagship system, the HV-100, is a compact outdoor-rated robot designed to handle containerized plants on uneven surfaces with minimal supervision. Each unit features onboard navigation, obstacle avoidance, and rechargeable batteries, enabling continuous operation alongside human crews. Supporting software connects through existing Wi-Fi networks to provide managers with real-time dashboards showing fleet performance, productivity metrics, and system diagnostics—helping growers balance efficiency, consistency, and labor savings across large horticultural operations.
The company’s business model is hybrid HaaS, pairing capital-equipment sales with embedded software and service components that create ongoing value. Customers typically purchase robots outright but gain access to operational dashboards, remote diagnostics, and update support through connected software tools. Harvest also provides documentation, training, and fleet-management resources as part of an extended service layer, allowing operations teams to monitor uptime and optimize robot utilization. While not a full subscription model, the approach combines durable equipment ownership with continuous software-driven insights, bridging CapEx reliability and digital scalability.
