Electric Sheep’s Verdie is claimed to be the world’s most advanced landscaping robot, and rightfully so. It’s powered by the company’s ES1 AI agent, which enables the robot to operate autonomously in any outdoor setting with zero teaching.
ES1 is essentially a learned world model that enables reasoning and planning for Verdie to edge / trim lawns, bushes, as well as blow leaves. It achieves this by first creating a map that can be used for coverage planning, and highlighting the edges of the workable area. This is accomplished by dense prediction of a world state with a single model, similar to ChatGPT, but for spatial AI. There’s no word yet on pricing, but the company plans on deploying Verdie to customer sites throughout 2024. You’ll probably need several Verdie robots to take care of this $20-million Arizona mansion with a go-kart track.

We are building an RL factory to train autonomous AI agents to do sustainable outdoor work. The debut of our Verdie robot is the first AI robot for tasks like trimming and edging in the world of landscaping, and it’s exciting to see our ES1 technology power multiple robots that can work alongside a crew without an engineer on-site setting a specific path for them, said Nag Murty, CEO and Co-Founder of Electric Sheep.
