About Brumby
Brumby builds autonomous drones that herd cattle. On command, our drones fly to a paddock, position themselves around the mob, and move them where they need to go. What used to take a full day of helicopters, motorbikes, and horses now runs on a schedule. We work with some of the largest cattle ranches in the world. While the drones are herding, they're also estimating animal weights, measuring grass biomass, monitoring water levels, and flagging sick animals. We're building physical AI that lets a grazier manage thousands of head across millions of acres from their phone.
