Company Overview

Ripe Robotics is an Australian agricultural robotics company founded in 2019 by Hunter Jay, headquartered in Ardmona, Victoria. The company designs, builds, and operates autonomous robots for harvesting apples and stone fruits including plums, peaches, and nectarines grown on 2D planar or V-trellis orchards. Its flagship robot, Eve, uses computer vision and AI to identify, pick, and quality-grade fruit in real time, analysing each piece for size, colour, and ripeness.

Ripe Robotics does not sell or lease equipment; instead it charges growers by the bin of fruit picked, making advanced harvesting technology accessible without capital outlay. The company emerged from the University of Sydney's INCUBATE program and has been backed by Startmate and Western Growers. Trial partners include McNab Orchards and Pomona Valley.

As of 2026 the company has raised approximately USD 920,000.
