## About

Founded in 2017 by CEO Brent Frei and based in Washington, US, TerraClear, Inc develops a wireless agricultural technology ecosystem comprised of an application-powered aerial surveillance craft, machine vision, GPS, and robotics that automates rock removal from fields. The company has offices and workshops in Bellevue, WA, and Grangeville, ID. In May 2021, TerraClear, Inc. raised USD 25 million in Series A funding led by returning investor Madrona Venture Group. The CEO had founded and led successful technology companies, including Smartsheet which trades on the NYSE under the ticker symbol SMAR, Onyx Software, and HarvestWest Investment fund.

The company's engineers have developed the TerraClear Rock Picker, a machine that enables the picking of rocks from its existing position without disturbing the surrounding soil. This product is capable of operating in a wide range of field conditions. TerraClear’s Rock Picker picks an average of 400 rocks per hour and can pick up rocks of up to 300 pounds.

TerraClear, Inc. plans to use the funding raised in Series A to scale production and sales in 2022 and grow the team in Washington and Idaho. The company also plans on developing a fully autonomous rock picker platform with AI capabilities.
