Welcome back to your weekly map of where capital is moving across artificial intelligence, robotics, and the infrastructure underneath both.

This week’s capital moved in three tightly connected directions: enterprise control, specialized data, and production infrastructure. Cybersecurity platforms Cyera and Island each landed $400 million, Snorkel AI pulled in $350 million for complex model-training data, and healthcare, cloud, biotech, recruiting, and physical-AI data companies filled out a globally distributed board.

For decades, farmers have relied on herbicides and heavy equipment to control weeds.

Greenfield Robotics is working to change that.

BOTONY robots navigate crop rows and mechanically remove weeds, giving farmers an alternative to blanket herbicide applications and intensive tillage.

The potential benefits are significant:

And the market is enormous.

Greenfield estimates more than 250 million acres of broadacre cropland in the U.S., with more than 100 million acres in its initial serviceable market.

With the Reg A+ now live, investors can participate in Greenfield Robotics' growth story.
