Ecorobotix is a Swiss agritech company founded in 2011 and headquartered in Yverdon-les-Bains. It pioneers AI-driven precision agriculture with its solar-powered robotic sprayers. Its flagship product, ARA, delivers ultra-high precision “plant-by-plant” spray treatment, enabling up to 95% reduction in herbicide usage while treating up to 10 hectares per day. Built on principles of reducing chemical inputs, replacing synthetic products with eco-friendly methods, and regenerating ecosystems, Ecorobotix blends innovation with environmental stewardship.
The company, certified as a B Corporation since 2019 and recently re-certified, underscores its commitment to sustainability. After releasing its autonomous prototype (AVO) between 2016 and 2018, Ecorobotix launched the well-received ARA system in 2021. By 2023, it had secured significant funding and expanded its operations into North and South America. Its leadership transitioned in 2024 to CEO Dominique Mégret, following a period marked by both tragedy—the passing of CEO Simon Aspinall—and growth.
With ARA deployed across over 20 countries, Ecorobotix demonstrates how cutting-edge technology can empower farmers, lower costs, and protect the environment—all while contributing to the long-term viability and resilience of global agriculture.
Ecorobotix SA is a Swiss AgTech pioneer specializing in sustainable, AI-driven agricultural solutions that minimize chemical use and maximize efficiency in modern farming. Founded in 2011 by Aurélien Demaurex and Dr. Steve Tanner, the company is headquartered in Yverdon-les-Bains, Switzerland, and has since become a leader in precision crop care technologies.
At the heart of Ecorobotix’s innovation is ARA, an ultra-high-precision smart sprayer that uses advanced artificial intelligence and vision systems to detect and treat individual plants with pinpoint accuracy. This breakthrough technology enables farmers to reduce herbicide, pesticide, and fertilizer usage by up to 95%, significantly lowering costs while protecting soil, water, and biodiversity. By combining robotics, computer vision, and sustainability-driven engineering, Ecorobotix empowers farmers to increase productivity and adopt eco-friendly practices without compromising yield.
