Trovador
Techβ’Startup
Every year, 11 million hectares of forest disappear. π The slopes where fires burn hottest are the same ones too steep for tractors, too dangerous for crews, and too rough for drones to plant effectively. Trovador is the world's first autonomous all-terrain tree-planting robot. π€ Four legs. 45Β° slopes. 200 trees an hour. Each seedling drilled, placed, and firmed into the soil β the way a careful human would, but faster and without stopping for rain. One operator. Five robots. 1,000 trees per hour. π²π²π² We don't scatter seeds and hope. We plant rooted seedlings with 85%+ survival, log every tree with GPS coordinates, and leave behind a forest you can actually measure. π Born in Portugal, where 80% of the canopy is gone. Built by a team that grew up watching the green horizons of their childhood turn to ash. π₯ 500,000+ trees in signed partnerships. Backed by National Geographic, and the UN Decade on Ecosystem Restoration. πΏ Reforestation isn't broken because people don't care. It's broken because the terrain wins. We're here to change that. ποΈ
