Investor Relations
Aurox is an autonomous field systems company replacing broadcast field operations with plant-level autonomous action. Starting with resistant weed control in soy and corn, with recurring per-hectare economics.
Buva (Conyza spp.) is the most economically damaging weed in Brazilian soy. It is now resistant to glyphosate in over 25 countries. At least 6 major species have confirmed resistance across Brazil's soy belt — costing R$9B/year in losses. As resistance spreads, farmers are forced into heavier chemical applications at higher cost, lower efficacy, and mounting regulatory risk.
The current solution — broadcast spraying — treats the entire field to kill a fraction of weeds. It is expensive, wasteful, and accelerates resistance. There is no precision mechanical alternative at scale. Until now.
A second structural driver is active: China's GACC quarantine standards are triggering phytosanitary rejections of Brazilian soy exports when quarantine weed seeds appear in harvested grain. Field-level elimination before seed set is the only durable solution — creating demand at the trading company level (Cargill, COFCO, CHS) in addition to the farm level.
ARX-1 is the Aurox robotic platform. It identifies and eliminates target weeds mechanically, plant by plant — using onboard computer vision, edge AI, and selective mechanical actuators. Zero cloud dependency. Zero herbicide. ByeBuva is the first commercial service built on it.
Onboard RGB cameras continuously scan the terrain. Every plant captured, classified, and georeferenced — in real time, with no cloud dependency.
Embedded AI identifies buva at the plant level using a proprietary dataset built from Brazilian fields. Crop safe. Weed targeted. On-device inference only.
A selective mechanical arm descends on confirmed targets. Zero herbicide applied. The crop untouched. The job done — autonomously.
Aurox operates the full stack — hardware, software, maintenance, and field operations. Farmers pay per hectare treated. Zero capital expenditure. Zero integration friction. We bring the system; they keep farming.
This model aligns our incentives with outcomes: we earn when the system runs, scales as fleet grows, and compounds as our dataset deepens with each season in the field.
Aurox Inova Simples registered (April 2026). ARX-1 technical specification — chassis, drivetrain, perception, and weeding mechanism — locked from first principles.
Weeding mechanism, computer-vision stack, and autonomous-navigation subsystems built and tested on the bench. Independent validation before integration.
Integrated ARX-1 prototype runs its first tests in live Brazilian soy fields. Mechanical weeding accuracy, navigation reliability, and operational endurance measured under production conditions.
First commercial RaaS deployment during safra 27/28. Revenue per hectare treated. Operational playbook and fleet built for scale into subsequent seasons.
Built by a team with roots in robotics, computer vision, and Brazilian agribusiness. We are heads-down on subsystem validation and the first field prototype.
We are not actively raising at this time. If you are a farmer, partner, or long-term collaborator interested in autonomous field systems — we are happy to talk.
