  Participated · Equity · Oct 2022

  Greenzie is an Atlanta, GA–based autonomous software company led by CEO Charles Brian Quinn that aims to free humans from repetitive outdoor labor. Its core product is software for autonomous commercial lawn mowers and the Robotic Ready program, which gives manufacturers the ability to upfit mowers with industry-standard autonomous mowing functionality. The company already has a fleet of robotic workers deployed with customers in the field. Greenzie plans to use recent funding to grow its engineering team, add additional manufacturers to the Robotic Ready program, and continue expanding its deployed fleet. The article does not disclose revenue or other operating metrics. Greenzie produces software and sensor kits that allow commercial lawn mowers to cut lawns autonomously; Wright Manufacturing supplies the physical mowers which are outfitted with Greenzie sensors. Twelve Greenzie mowers are currently in use by landscaping companies including BrightView and Juniper Landscaping. The company is led by CEO Charles Quinn and operates a Westside lab space to test machines. Greenzie has 15 employees and was launched from the Atlanta Ventures Studio. With the new funding, the startup plans to expand its fleet, double headcount over the next year, and partner with more manufacturers to scale rollout. Greenzie is focused on commercial mowing today but plans to support smaller, more intricate lawns and to shift human workers into higher‑paid technician roles while automating repetitive outdoor labor.
