Every year there are trillions of pieces of fruit picked by hand. Farmers continually struggle to find and manage people which results in huge levels of waste and lost profit.
Ripe Robotics was founded with the goal of changing an industry that has been left behind by technological innovation. Fruit has been picked the same way for as long as we can remember, but recent advances in artificial intelligence and robotics have now made automation possible.
We are fast approaching full scale commercialisation of our technology and are always interested in hearing from growers, engineers, and investors. If you would like to join our journey, please reach out to us at contact@riperobotics.com.
