Aigen gives growers and agribusinesses a solar-powered robotic crew for precise, herbicide-free mechanical weed control. Our four-arm Element robots remove weeds at the root in and between rows with no driver, fuel, or charging infrastructure. Every pass delivers plant-level data and field analytics. Alchemy, our world model for outdoor AI, accelerates AI training for new crops. We combine robotics, computer vision, and generative AI to expand crop coverage and bring autonomous farming to scale.

Performance & Impact Économique
- ROI estimé :
ROI depends on acreage, crop, weed pressure, and existing weed-control costs. Element is cost-competitive with higher-cost programs involving hand labor, cultivation, or combined chemical and mechanical control. Farm-specific payback is calculated from the investment and annual net savings after operating, maintenance, and support costs.
- Économies de produits phytosanitaires :
No driver, no fuel, and no herbicides for robotic weed control. Element runs on sunlight with solar-charged battery backup, reducing reliance on weeding crews and tractor-powered operations. Savings depend on the work replaced.
- Amélioration du rendement :
Element is designed to protect yield by controlling weeds that compete with crops for water, nutrients, and sunlight, including herbicide-resistant weeds. The benefit depends on crop, weed pressure, and treatment timing.

Fonctionnalités et technologies
- Fonctionnalité principale : Meet Element, Aigen’s four-arm, solar-powered robot for in-row and between-row weed control. With no driver, fuel, or charging infrastructure, coordinated fleets remove weeds at the root, up to 15 cm | 6 inches in foliage diameter. Every pass captures plant-level data for field analytics. A mobile and tablet app enables remote control and monitoring, while adjustable wheel spacing accommodates different crop layouts.
- Logiciel : Onboard computer vision and AI identify crops and weeds and guide the mechanical weeding arms. Edge computing processes information on the robot, while RTK/GPS supports precise navigation. Solar power and onboard battery storage keep it running.
- Connectivité : Stay connected to your crew through LTE or Starlink. A mobile and tablet app gives growers remote control and fleet monitoring. An RTK base station is required for precise positioning, and RTK/GPS maps can be integrated into other farm systems.
- Outils compatibles : Swappable blades let Element strike or sweep weeds in and between rows. Integrated mechanical arms put the tools to work directly, with no tractor required.
Plan de développement
- Prochaine phase de développement : Bring Element to more crops, faster. The next phase focuses on rapid crop expansion, using Alchemy (world model) to train and adapt Element’s AI for additional crop types, with field validation of weed-control performance and crop safety.
