Monarch® is a technology leader in software-defined vehicle and AI-powered autonomy solutions for off-highway OEMs.
About us
At Monarch, we’re leading the digital transformation of farming. Monarch believes in putting farmers first. Our smart electric tractor enhances existing farm ecosystems. Monarch helps farmers by addressing labor availability, meeting consumer demands for sustainability, and providing actionable data-driven farming insights. Monarch enables economically competitive organic and beyond farming through intelligent electro-mechanical solutions that replace harmful chemicals. While driven by bleeding-edge technology, the Monarch Tractor still plows, tills, and hauls better than any other tractor in its class. The Monarch Tractor will both spur and enable future generations of farming technologies. We have the technology and the team to develop, build, and scale the Monarch to digitally transform farming around the world.

When expansive, real-world data meets advanced AI models, the path to autonomy accelerates exponentially. MonarchOne™ gives OEMs a unique advantage: access to one of the largest, continuously expanding off-highway datasets in the world, collected from messy, unstructured, dynamic (MUD) environments. “The advent of AI in the last two years has really accelerated what’s possible when you have the right kinds of data.” — Praveen Penmetsa, CEO, Monarch. This data lake is used to extensively train MonarchOne’s AI systems to adapt across vehicle types and industries from agriculture to construction, accelerating model development and deployment.

Off-highway industries are at an inflection point. OEMs face rising pressure to automate their next generation of work machines — yet the path to autonomy is fragmented, costly, and slow. In this video, Monarch CEO Praveen Penmetsa shares what’s really holding back progress, and how a unified software-defined vehicle and AI platform like MonarchOne can accelerate innovation across every off-highway category. The future of off-highway autonomy starts with collaboration — and it starts here: https://bit.ly/3KKCYNT #Autonomy #OffHighway #SoftwareDefinedVehicles #AI #MonarchOne

Matthew Rogers said it well. AI & Robotics with real world use cases showing tangible and measurable value is the future. For example: Monarch's autonomous dairy feed pushing app reduces labor costs, fuel costs & input costs due to regular feed pushing(sometime 10+ times a day). Now we are also able to port the same dairy feed pushing app onto different farm vehicles using our MonarchOne Platform. More efficient and more sustainable thanks to Physical AI. #AgTech #AI #Autonomy #SoftwareDefinedVehicles #MonarchOne
Let’s retire the phrase “climate tech.” In order to scale up grids, add resilience to infrastructure, and prevent the housing market from insurance collapse, we need to retire not just the language, but the entire categorization of “climate tech”. We must dismantle the umbrella term into specific areas in need of urgent work like energy tech, waste tech, food tech, and carbon tech. For example, my team Incite.org invested in Monarch Tractor, a startup with a fleet of AI-powered electric vehicles and tech solutions that work for agricultural clients ranging from dairy farmers to municipalities to winemakers. Monarch isn’t a “climate tech” company. It’s an AI and robotics company with clear environmental benefits. Don’t get me wrong. “Climate tech” served well as an initial rallying cry. Now, we must get specific and tackle problems at scale with advanced technology operating where AI meets the physical world. There is no alternative. I make my case in Fast Company. Article in comments. Welcome thoughts/high fives/counterpoints in there as well.

🚜💦 Can you wash an electric tractor? Absolutely! It’s one of the most common questions we get at Monarch Tractor—and the answer is yes. The Monarch MK-V is built for real farm work and designed to handle the mud, dust, and daily wear that come with it. A good wash will keep your MK-V looking fresh while staying tough where it matters. Because let’s face it—no tractor stays spotless for long. 👉 Watch our quick guide on how to properly wash your Monarch MK-V: https://bit.ly/3HN7NjP #MonarchTractor #ElectricTractor #FarmTough
