Questions, answered.
What we build, what it reads in the field, and how it is priced. If something is missing, reach out and we will answer it directly.
Pricing
Per acre, and usage based.
Pricing is per acre, with a usage-based component that scales to how much you run it. Every operation is different, so we put together a custom quote for your acreage and crop.

What does Ficio build?
Machines that see and handle food where it actually is. FieldSorter 1 grades apples in the orchard row. A picking arm reaches fruit in unstructured plantings. FicioPrep brings the same brain to the prep line. Every machine feeds one shared model of food.
What is FieldSorter 1?
Our first machine: an in-field grader that comes to the grove. It rides the row and grades each apple at the tree, before a truck moves it, sorting premium, standard, and cull and tagging every grade to the tree it came from. It is in customer trials this harvest.
Which crops do you support?
We are starting with apples. The same brain is built to extend to more crops, so if you grow something else, tell us what it is when you reach out and we will tell you where it sits on the roadmap.
Where does the grading happen?
In the orchard, before the cold chain. Grading at the tree means you catch culls early and route premium fruit to its highest value, instead of paying to move and store fruit that will not make grade.
What data do I get back?
Per-tree and per-acre records: fruit count, size, and grade by tree, and block-level rollups, so every decision ties back to the acre and the tree it came from. Metrics shown on the site are illustrative of the data type, not audited results.
Does it need connectivity?
No. Perception and autonomy run onboard in the field. It is built for the row, not the lab, and runs off-grid. We will walk through siting, throughput, and power for your operation on a live demo.

Is there a kitchen product too?
FicioPrep brings the same brain to the prep line. It is coming soon. The field is where we are working today.
