Irrigreen (see Pulse 2.0 profile here), a leader in robotic irrigation systems, announced it has secured nearly $19 million in Series A funding. Backed by new and existing investors including Natural Ventures, Burnt Island Ventures, Ulu Ventures, MFV Partners, Tamiami, and Sum Ventures. This funding round brings the total to nearly $34 million.
Irrigreen will bring a new level of intelligence to a category long overdue for disruption. With over eight patents in precision spray technology, Irrigreen provides an entirely new approach: robotic sprinkler heads, digitally mapped lawns, real-time weather analysis, and water applied with beautiful accuracy only where and when it is needed.
The company also released an AI-based quoting tool that utilizes satellite imagery to detect lawn space and provides an instant configuration of sprinkler heads optimized for water use. Starting now, prospective customers can enter their address on Irrigreen’s site and receive an instant design of their custom sprinkler system and potential water bill savings.
Irrigreen also recently launched Smart Controller 3, its newest breakthrough product. Smart Controller 3 offers intuitive live-weather automation, deeper insights into water use, and enhanced controls, integrations, and notifications. And installing or upgrading an Irrigreen system is easier than ever before, with over 300 installation partners spanning nearly every U.S. state. In the future, Irrigreen is laser-focused on bolstering its suite of convenient, high-tech, and eco-friendly solutions that ease the environmental and financial burden of one of the world’s most pressing climate issues: inefficient irrigation.
What the funding will be used for: This funding round will help Irrigreen solidify its position as the leader in precision irrigation technology and deliver advanced solutions to maximize convenience, efficiency, and water savings for the 80+ million residential lawns in the U.S. And this new funding will advance Irrigreen’s next phase of research and product development, to redefine what’s possible for sustainable landscapes.
