Carbon Robotics

Carbon Robotics, a Seattle, WA-based AI-powered robotics company, raised $30M in Series C funding.

The round, which brought the total amount to $67M, was led by Sozo Ventures with participation from existing investors Anthos Capital, Fuse Venture Capital, Ignition Partners, Liquid2 and Voyager Capital. Rob Freelen with Sozo Ventures and Erik Benson with Voyager Capital will join the Carbon Robotics board of directors.

The company intends to use the funds to expand sales regions in North America, optimize and scale manufacturing, develop new software and hardware products, and launch into international markets.

Led by Paul Mikesell, CEO and founder, Carbon Robotics is an AI-powered robotics company that provides farmers with tools such as the LaserWeeder, a commercial laserweeding robot. LaserWeeder leverages AI learning technology, computer vision, robotics and lasers to deliver weed control. It identifies weeds and targets them for elimination. The implement’s 30 high-powered COlasers use thermal energy to destroy the meristem of the weed with millimeter accuracy, without damaging nearby crops or disturbing the soil. To date, the robots have eliminated more than 500 million weeds across 40 different crops and, in 2023, they will be active across 17 U.S. states and three Canadian provinces.
