Red Barn Robotics
US agricultural robotics RaaS startup offering autonomous intra-row weeding services using the Field Hand robot, founded in 2023 in Tukwila, WA.
Red Barn Robotics is a US agricultural robotics company founded in 2023 and headquartered at 1020 Industry Drive, Tukwila, WA 98188. The company offers autonomous weeding as a service (RaaS) to vegetable and specialty crop farmers, deploying its proprietary Field Hand robot to eliminate intra-row weeds that would otherwise require manual hand-weeding labor. The Field Hand uses sensors and machine learning to distinguish crops from weeds and mechanically cultivates without herbicides, preserving soil health through a lightweight design that prevents compaction.
The service is fully managed: Red Barn maps customer fields, creates custom weeding plans based on crop type, bed configuration, and growth cycle, then deploys robots throughout the growing season. The company raised a $500,000 pre-seed round in March 2025 and is backed by Y Combinator. Its modular tool head system accommodates different farm configurations.
