Against the record
LaserWeeder, from Carbon Robotics, is at stage 4 of 5 on our ladder: paying customers. Delivered and paid for, beyond pilots. The latest milestone on its record is from 13 Feb 2026: Carbon Robotics had raised $177 million in total by February 2026.

From the video's description
“If we hadn’t been able to purchase the LaserWeeder, I think in 5 to 10 years’ time our business probably wouldn’t exist.” — Nick Walton, Bagthorpe Farm, Norfolk, UK Bagthorpe grows about 150 acres of organic veg, including onions, carrots, potatoes and parsnips. Rising labor costs and fewer available workers have made hand weeding too expensive to keep up. With Bagthorpe’s first full season using the LaserWeeder G2: - Zero hand weeding in parsnips, emergence to harvest - ~70% lower labor bill - Weeded 13 hours in heavy rain (hand crew stopped at 4) - No soil disturbance, so no new weed flush
