Company
Sorting Robotics
Automation technology for the cannabis industry
We build robotic systems that automate the sorting and processing of cannabis plants. Our product uses robotics and computer vision to handle labor-intensive quality control tasks in cannabis cultivation and distribution. This reduces costs and increases throughput for cannabis producers and processors who currently rely heavily on manual sorting.
We live in Los Angeles, CA, and the company is based here. We would stay in Los Angeles after YC.
Los Angeles is where the cannabis industry is growing fast, and it's where we can closely work with our early customers and suppliers. It also gives us access to local talent with robotics and cultivation domain knowledge.
