Orio
Naio Technologies' Orio is a large autonomous tool-carrier robot platform (successor to the Dino) for large-scale vegetable and field crops, supporting multiple implements for weeding and other tasks.
Current platform
Ted
Naio Technologies' Ted is an autonomous straddle robot for vineyards that mechanically weeds under and between vine rows, reducing herbicide use; it debuted in the US at CES 2022.
Current platform
Oz
Naio Technologies' Oz is a small autonomous weeding robot for vegetable and market-garden farms; one of the company's flagship products with 300+ units deployed worldwide, it weeds and assists between crop rows.
Current platform
Naio weeding robots (Ted / Oz / Orio)
Naio Technologies (founded 2011 in Escalquens, near Toulouse, France; founders Aymeric Barthes and Gaetan Severac) is one of the most established commercial agricultural-robot makers, with more than 350 all-electric autonomous robots deployed across five continents. Its machines use RTK-GPS and camera vision for herbicide-free mechanical weeding, and its current lineup includes Ted (a vineyard straddle weeder), Oz (a small market-garden sowing and weeding assistant), Jo (a compact vineyard and nursery robot), and Orio (an autonomous vegetable-crop tool-carrier that succeeds the now-discontinued Dino). Its peak financing was a $33 million (about 31 million euro) Series B led by Mirova in December 2022. The registry records it at commercial maturity with an active lifecycle, while flagging a significant 2025 restructuring: Naio entered French judicial recovery in June 2025 and was relaunched under new ownership and leadership, with CEO Antoine Monville, in late October and November 2025, backed by a roughly 6.4 million euro financing plan that included a Mirova reinvestment of about 3.5 million euro plus support from Bpifrance and the Occitanie region. Revenue had declined from about 3.96 million euro in 2021 to about 2.4 million euro in 2024. The relaunch refocuses on the most profitable robots, Ted and Oz, leaving Orio's commercial future uncertain.
