With over 350 million gallons of water saved, Irrigreen launches new AI tool to help homeowners save water, time, and money
EDINA, Minn., April 22, 2025 — Irrigreen, the leader in robotic irrigation systems, today announced it has secured nearly $19 million in Series A financing. Backed by new and existing investors including Natural Ventures, Burnt Island Ventures, Ulu Ventures, MFV Partners, Tamiami, and Sum Ventures, this round brings the company’s total funding to almost $34 million. This round will help Irrigreen solidify its position as the leader in precision irrigation technology and deliver advanced solutions to maximize convenience, efficiency, and water savings for the 80+ million residential lawns in the U.S.
Irrigreen brings a new level of intelligence to a category long overdue for disruption. Water bills are up nearly 20% in recent years, and yet traditional sprinklers, which account for one-third of household water use, waste up to 50% through inefficient, outdated watering methods. With more than 8 patents in precision spray technology, Irrigreen offers an entirely new approach: robotic sprinkler heads, digitally mapped lawns, real-time weather analysis, and water applied with beautiful accuracy only where and when it is needed. These new funds will fuel Irrigreen’s next phase of research and product development, to redefine what’s possible for sustainable landscapes.
Irrigreen has also released an AI-powered quoting tool that leverages satellite imagery to detect lawn space and provides an instant configuration of sprinkler heads optimized for water use. Starting today, prospective customers can simply enter their address on Irrigreen’s site and receive an instant design of their custom sprinkler system and potential water bill savings.
“No more sidewalk spray, dead patches in the yard, harmful chemical runoff down the drain, or dodging the sprinkler on the way to work,” said Shane Dyer, CEO of Irrigreen. “By following the unique contours of your yard, Irrigreen delivers a healthier, greener lawn with dramatically less water. We’re not just upgrading sprinklers—we’re redefining what outdoor smart tech can do. It’s the lawn you’ve dreamed about, without the waste or the worry.”
Irrigreen recently launched Smart Controller 3, its newest breakthrough product and winner of the 2025 Green GOOD DESIGN Sustainability Award. Smart Controller 3 delivers intuitive live-weather automation, deeper insights into water use, and enhanced controls, integrations, and notifications. Installing or upgrading an Irrigreen system is easier than ever before, with more than 300 installation partners spanning nearly every U.S. state. Looking ahead, Irrigreen is laser-focused on bolstering its suite of convenient, high-tech, and eco-friendly solutions that ease the environmental and financial burden of one of the world’s most pressing climate issues: inefficient irrigation.
“The world needs more innovative solutions like Irrigreen that address environmental challenges, lower costs, and simplify daily life,” said Tom Ferguson, Founder and Managing Partner at Burnt Island Ventures. “We’re thrilled to support them in this exciting growth stage as they modernize a critical aspect of water usage and waste. This is only the beginning of what promises to be a transformative journey in the future of irrigation.”
