O que Four Growers faz

Four Growers was founded to provide healthy, affordable, local produce by reducing the production costs of greenhouse growers through robotics technology. We are positioning ourselves to be the automated solutions provider for greenhouse crop management. We are working closely with various greenhouse growers to develop a tomato harvesting robot. Our technology relies on two layers of protection, patents filed protecting the physical design of the robot and a proprietary algorithm that controls the robot's decision making. Our solution is not only capable of harvesting the tomatoes, but also of performing a quality check and packaging.

What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.

We're building a robot to harvest tomatoes in greenhouses. It picks, checks quality, and packages fruit automatically, cutting labor and production costs for growers. Our system combines a patented physical robot design with proprietary decision-making algorithms.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

We live in Pittsburgh, PA, and plan to base the company here after YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

We've built strong local relationships with greenhouse growers here and have our technical team in Pittsburgh, so it makes sense to stay where we can iterate quickly and access talent.
