GrazeMate

GrazeMate builds autonomous drones for cattle stations.

We're replacing helicopters and motorbikes with drones that herd cattle, count herds, and monitor pasture on their own. Helicopter mustering is expensive, dangerous, and still misses cattle. Our drones launch from a dock, fly the paddock, do the work, and come home. The only pilot is our RL models.

We went through YC (W26) and raised a seed round from the best investors in the valley. Our team is small and highly technical, and we're already working with some of the largest ranches in the world.

Engineering is based in Sydney, but the work happens everywhere. Expect to write code at a desk, in a truck, and in the dirt. We work hard because our ranchers do.

We run computer vision and reinforcement learning on drones that operate without a human in the loop, across paddocks the size of small countries. The stack runs on ROS2, with models deployed to the edge on NVIDIA Jetsons. Because cattle go everywhere, so do we - GrazeMate runs fully off-grid and without connectivity.
