Greenzie, an Atlanta company that supplies autonomy technology to commercial mower manufacturers, said Nov. 5 that equipment running its platform has logged more than 255,000 cumulative autonomous mowing miles, more than the average distance from Earth to the moon.
Mowers equipped with Greenzie Powered Autonomy have cut more than 9 billion square feet of turf for more than 200 commercial customers in 45 U.S. states and four countries, according to the company. Greenzie said that adds up to more than 65,000 equivalent operator days of autonomous mowing.
“We mowed to the moon, but the real achievement is the commercial experience behind those miles,” said Charles Brian Quinn, co-founder and CEO of Greenzie. “Every mile represents equipment working on real properties with commercial crews. That experience has shaped our technology, strengthened our OEM partnerships and taught us how to help customers successfully integrate autonomy into their daily operations.”
Equipment Partners
Founded in 2018, Greenzie has supported commercial field deployments since 2021. Its platform lets commercial mowing equipment navigate and operate autonomously while crews manage labor availability and productivity.
Wright Manufacturing is a longstanding Greenzie partner. Its Wright Autonomous Stander ZK, equipped with Greenzie Powered Autonomy, is in use with commercial landscape contractors.
“Wright and Greenzie have worked closely to bring autonomous mowing into real commercial operations,” said Ed Wright, CEO of Wright Manufacturing. “Reaching this milestone reflects the commitment of our teams, dealers and customers who have helped put the technology to work. We are proud of the experience we have built together and what it means for the future of commercial mowing.”
Greenzie also has OEM relationships with Mean Green Electric Mowers, Greenworks Commercial and Bobcat. Greenzie supplies the autonomy technology and integration expertise, and its OEM partners develop and manufacture the equipment.
Adoption Program
Greenzie said its field experience shapes the Greenzie Powered Autonomy Adoption Program, a structured approach to evaluating suitable properties, preparing for deployment, onboarding operators, measuring results and expanding autonomous operations.
“Successful autonomy requires more than capable technology,” said Steve Bush, chief operating officer of Greenzie. “Customers need to understand where autonomy fits into their operations, how to prepare their crews and how to measure success. We have spent years learning those lessons alongside our customers and OEM partners, creating a more consistent path to adoption as the industry grows.”
“Commercial autonomy is already part of everyday operations for customers across the industry,” Quinn said. “Our focus now is to build on that experience, help more manufacturers bring autonomy to market and make successful adoption possible for more commercial operators.”
