Greenbreak is building the autonomy stack for fire-prone land. Drones and AI map every plant on a site, software plans the restoration, Robots clear the invasives. A survey-grade, append-only ledger certifies that native cover went in and survived.
Restoration has been ignored at scale because human labor made it uneconomical. Autonomy changes the math.
Robots per acre, not crews per acre.
Every layer reads from and writes to the same per-plant map. That's what lets each pass over the land be cheaper than the last, and what turns the work into evidence.
RTK/PPK drone flights and quadrupeds capture survey-grade imagery of the whole site, and AI classifies what's growing, native versus invasive, down to individual plants. Seasonal re-surveys compare against the known map, so anything unmapped is flagged as likely weed growth automatically.
From the plant catalog, our software generates the clearing plan, mulch zones, and a native planting palette matched to the site's ecology: oak woodland, grassland, or chaparral. Everything is reviewable on a map, plant by plant, before work begins.
Every plant carries a permanent identity: species, RTK position to ±30 cm, condition, date. Observations are immutable rows, never edits, so the season-over-season record is auditable by design. This is the evidence layer the whole business stands on.
Quadrupeds that walk the understory to map what drones can't see, robotic removal of invasive plants, and targeted weed removal driven by the same per-plant map. The work scales with robots, not crews.
Invasive annual grasses are a wildfire accelerant. They raise fine-fuel loads, dry out early, and carry fire farther and faster. And every acre cleared to bare soil is an acre they recolonize first.
Annual grasses like wild oat increase fine-fuel load and continuity while lowering moisture, measurably raising both fire occurrence and frequency across US ecoregions.
Today's vegetation contractors mow, masticate, and burn, then leave bare, disturbed ground. That's exactly the condition invasive grass colonizes fastest. The risk returns within a season, and the invoice returns every year.
The lasting fix is native restoration, but hand labor made it uneconomical beyond small plots. Aerial survey, AI detection, and a shared per-plant map already cut the human hours per acre, and each capability we move onto robots cuts them again.
Run the numbers on your own acreage → Our cost calculator compares paying for abatement forever against restoring once, with every assumption shown.
One continuous service across oak woodland, grassland, and chaparral: machines and software doing more of the work each season, and a certified record of all of it.
Drones survey and AI-catalog the site, software generates the plan, and crews clear invasive annual grasses and plant fire-resilient natives. Each plant is tagged with a survey-grade RTK position at planting.
On open ground, robotic mowing platforms do the clearing.
Every plant enters an append-only ledger: species, centimeter-class coordinates, condition, and date. Drone surveys re-observe each plant across seasons. Nothing is ever overwritten. The history is the proof.
Seasonal AI monitoring flags invasive regrowth against known plant locations before it re-establishes, and crews and autonomous ground robots remove it as a targeted task.
Satellite and aerial detection tell you where risk might be. Our ledger records what's actually in the ground, plant by plant and season by season, with the properties that risk instruments, mitigation credits, and compliance reviews demand.
RTK GNSS field capture with fix-quality gating, tied to PPK drone orthomosaics for authoritative coordinates, not consumer GPS guesses.
Observations are immutable rows, never edits. Current state is derived from history, so the record can't be quietly rewritten. That is what makes it auditable.
The ledger doesn't just show work happened. It shows survival, establishment, and reduced fuel conditions over time. That is the evidence layer parametric insurance and mitigation banking are built on.
If your business depends on demonstrating that land was restored and stayed restored, we deliver both the work and the evidence.
Per-plant establishment records give agencies verifiable success metrics instead of years of contested monitoring reports, accelerating credit release and time-to-permit.
Certified mitigation records and season-over-season fuel-condition data: the verification layer that parametric wildfire products and community-level discounts need to price.
Convert a recurring clearing expense into a documented, fire-resilient asset, with an audit trail regulators and wildfire mitigation plans can cite.
Restoration that lowers real fire behavior on your ground, plus the records that support insurance conversations, disclosures, and long-term stewardship.

Our demonstration site is a 12-acre oak woodland property in Mariposa County in the Sierra foothills. It was degraded by invasive wild oat and is now being restored plant by plant under the same map, software, and ledger we sell. Every method we bring to your land is proven on ours, and it's where our autonomous platforms will do their first field trials.
Peer-reviewed research shows invasive annual grasses increase fire occurrence and frequency across US ecoregions, while native perennials hold more moisture, carry less fine fuel, and slow spread. California's own analysis puts the return at $3.75 saved for every $1 spent on wildfire prevention. We turn that evidence into acreage, and into records.
