Kilter hit a milestone worth celebrating! AX-1 robots at work on customer farms have now helped growers avoid spraying more than one million litres of herbicide mixture, compared to what conventional broadcast spraying would have used.

Independent testing by Wageningen University & Research (WUR) has confirmed that Kilter AX-1 qualifies for DRT99, the highest spray drift reduction classification in the Dutch system for spraying technologies.

Validated by a global industrial leader and backed by long-term shareholders, Kilter secures EUR 6.5 million in new financing and is accelerating toward its next phase of scalable, technology-driven growth.

For us, this is a nice recognition of the work we do together with growers and partner, and of our shared direction.

Kilter and Kubota are partnering to bring Kilter’s AX-1 precision weeding robot to European vegetable growers, starting in Germany and the Netherlands and showcased at Agritechnica 2025.

When Kilter first launched the AX-1 in 2021, the goal was clear: make weeding more precise, more sustainable, and far less dependent on pesticides.

During the National Onion Field Day in Rygge, AX-1 got to do what it does best – right in the field at Karl Emil Rosnæs’ farm. Onions, robots, and real conversations. Just the way we like it.

July 2nd we were out in the field at Hørte farm in Lier. Cabbage crops in focus. Lots of good people. Even better conversations. And AX-1 doing what it does best.

Weeding by hand takes time. A lot of it. It’s slow, repetitive, and expensive – and it ties up your most valuable resource: people.

Every farmer knows: weeds are persistent. They don’t rest. And if you don’t get on top of them, they’ll outcompete your crops for nutrients, light, and water – costing you yield, time, and money.
