About

Tevel is addressing the critical shortage in agricultural labor through its revolutionary fruit-picking Flying Autonomous Robots (FAR). Powered by AI, machine learning, and computer vision algorithms, Tevel's flying robots delicately pick fruit with unparalleled accuracy and maneuverability. They offer easy and reliable operation, 24/7 harvesting capabilities, and cost efficiency to farmers. The robots can identify the ripeness level of each fruit to perform selective picking and can also identify diseases on the fruit in real time. Tevel's autonomous harvesting technology is successfully picking a variety of fruits, including apples, peaches, nectarines, apricots, plums, and pears, across Italy, the United States (California and Washington), Chile, and Israel. In addition to harvesting, Tevel’s robots also act as data agents by continuously collecting granular information in real-time on every fruit they pick. Tevel’s user-friendly software reports to growers data such as amount of fruit picked, total fruit weight, size and weight distribution, ripeness level, disease detection, heatmap, geolocation, and more. This empowers growers with precise knowledge of each bin's contents before delivery to the packing house. Tevel has over 60 employees with headquarters in Israel and subsidiary branches in Italy and the United States.
