Pitch

About the Campaign

Berry growers face rising labour costs & worker shortages; a significant portion of raspberries are wasted as fruit is left unpicked. Fieldwork Robotics has created the first precision raspberry-harvesting robot, using AI & multi-arm automation to cut costs, reduce waste, & offer consistent, efficient harvesting for growers.

Market Opportunity

Fresh raspberries are a fast-growing (11.4% CAGR) multi-billion-dollar market. UK production depends heavily on manual labour, causing raspberries to be left unharvested due to a lack of pickers. Our unique IP enables gentle, automated picking and ripeness detection - key to sustainable berry farming.

Traction & Key Accomplishments

Fieldwork Robotics, founded in 2016, operates in the UK, Portugal, USA, & Australia. After early harvesting trials in 2019, in 2023 we received £1.5M in investment from VC Elbow Beach, closed a £1.5M seed funding round & secured Innovate UK grants. In 2024, we launched the AI-powered Fieldworker 1, capable of detecting ripeness with greater accuracy, & partnered with Costa Group, a leading Australian grower. A later agreement with Burro delivered a base-agnostic, efficient solution for growers.

Use of Funds

- Establish operations in Australia

- Capital for contract manufacturing

- Optimise pick cycle & grow harvesting capabilities (day & night)

- Build fleet management with a multi-operational platform & visualisation capabilities

- Develop further compatibility with base navigation tech for increased utility

Runway Disclosure

Please note that the minimum target for the round provides the company with 4 months of runway.

The company currently has several ongoing conversations with potential investors, which will increase this runway period. Investors will be updated if these investments convert.

Convertible Key Terms

This investment round is being raised by way of a convertible equity investment structure, in this case an "Advanced Subscription Agreement" (“ASA”).

The key terms that apply to the Company’s ASA are set out below. See also the Key Terms document in the 'Documents' section for further details.

Conversion is triggered by ("Trigger Events"):

- An Qualifying Equity Fundraise – defined as the Company raising equity investment capital of at least £2,800,000 from one transaction or a series of transactions, in exchange for the company issuing equity shares. A Qualifying Equity Fundraise will automatically trigger conversion of the ASA;

- A Non-Qualifying Equity Fundraise - defined as the Company raising equity investment that does not meet the Qualifying Equity Fundraise minimum threshold. Conversion pursuant to a Non-Qualifying Equity Fundraise will be at the election of Republic Europe.
- A Change of Control of the company (transfer of more than 50% of the share capital); or

- An IPO – being a listing of the company’s shares on a recognised stock market or secondary market.


On the occurrence of a Trigger Event, your investment will convert at the lower of:

a) A 25% discount to the lowest price paid per share in connection with the Trigger Event; or
b) the lowest conversion price of any investment made as part of the round.
The Longstop Date is 6 months from the date of the advance subscription agreement. Please note this will be after the Campaign closes.

If conversion has not been triggered by the Longstop Date, shares will be issued on the Longstop Date at the Default Share Price, which is the lower of:

a) The lowest price of any shares issued after the date of this Agreement; and

b) a price per share of £29.16 based on a company valuation of £10,668,472.

The ASA would also convert to equity at the Default Share Price in the event of winding up or liquidation of the company.

Group Structure

Investment in this round will be going into Fieldwork Robotics Ltd, the Top Co.

The Company is majority investor owned, with the largest stakes being held by Elbow Beach Investment Ltd, The University of Plymouth Enterprise Limited and Frontier IP Group. The CEO currently holds 4% of the fully diluted equity through unvested options.

The Founder & Chief Scientific Officer holds 9.98% of the fully diluted equity and works for the Company on a part time basis.

Share Classes

The Company has 2 classes of shares, A Ordinary shares and Ordinary shares. The shares rank equally in all respects and carry no additional rights.

Outstanding Convertible Loans

FieldWork Robotics Limited (the “Company”) has the following outstanding convertible loans, which may convert to equity after this round and dilute existing shareholders:

1. A £350,000 convertible loan note from Elbow Beach Investments Limited (“Elbow Beach”), executed on the 12th May 2025 (“Loan Note”) with the following key terms:

Interest rate: Fixed rate of 20% per annum (Interest Rate). Interest shall only be payable if a repayment event or an Event of Default (being the Company’s insolvency or administration) occurs.

Conversion trigger:
- Automatic Conversion: The Loan Notes automatically convert on the earlier of the next Relevant Fund Raising (raising an equity round over £2,800,000 ) into the senior share class issued in the Relevant Fund Raising or a Change of Control event into A Ordinary Shares.
- Election by Elbow Beach: Elbow Beach may elect to convert the Loan Notes on (i) a Fund Raising (raising an equity round of £2,800,000 or less) into senior share class issued in the Fund Raising; or (ii) on the nine-month anniversary of the Loan Note’s date (i.e., 12 February 2026) into A Ordinary Shares.

Conversion price: The Loan Notes shall convert into shares at the following conversion prices:
- On a Relevant Fund Raising, the conversion price will be a 50% discount to the price per share paid for the senior shares issued in that Relevant Fund Raising.
- On a Change of Control or a Fund Raising (or nine-month anniversary conversion), the conversion price will be a 50% discount to the price per share paid for the most senior share class in the Company's last Financing Round.

Repayment date: The principal amount of the Loan Note shall be redeemed (repaid) together with accrued interest, if Elbow Beach so determines, on the following events:
- Completion of a Fund Raising.
- The nine-month anniversary of the date of the Instrument.
- A material breach by the Company of the Loan Notes.

The Loan Note shall be immediately repaid if an Event of Default occurs.

2. Up to EUR 250,000.00 loan/credit from Atlântico II - Fundo de Investimento Alternativo Fechado de Capital de Risco (“AOC”) with the following terms:

This is an investment structured as a debt-like instrument which provides for capital injection into the Portuguese subsidiary of the Company and conversion into equity in the Company:

Interest rate: Compound interest of 7% per annum.

Valuation Cap: the Company’s post-money valuation of EUR 11,160,000.
Maturity Date: 5 December 2026.

Conversion: The loan will convert into shares in the Company on the first to occur of the following events:

- Liquidity Event: In the event of a merger or sale of the Company or its Portuguese subsidiary, the loan plus accrued interest, will convert into the most senior share class at a conversion price based on the Valuation Cap. Alternatively, AOC can elect to receive a payment in cash of 1.2x the investment amount plus accrued interest.
- Dissolution Event: In the event of a winding up or liquidation of the Company or its Portuguese subsidiary, AOC shall be entitled to receive a payment in cash of 1.2x the investment amount plus accrued interest.
- On the Maturity Date, the loan plus accrued interest will convert into the most senior preferred shares class at a price based on a Company's post-money valuation of EUR 8,750,000.

Investing involves risks, including loss of capital, illiquidity, lack of dividends and dilution, and should be done only as part of a diversified portfolio. Please read the Risk Warnings before investing. Investments should only be made by investors who understand these risks. Tax treatment depends on individual circumstances and is subject to change in future.

This campaign for Fieldwork Robotics has been approved by Seedrs Limited (trading as Republic Europe) ("Republic Europe", "us" or "we"), as of 10 October 2025 as a financial promotion. Republic Europe is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority with firm reference number 550317. In approving this campaign, Republic Europe has concluded that the information, taken as a whole, is "fair, clear and not misleading." This means that for factual statements we have reviewed evidence of their accuracy, and that for aspirational statements we believe they are phrased appropriately in light of their speculative nature. You should note that in the case of factual statements, the evidence we review is provided by the business, and we do not audit it, which means that we may not be able to identify forged or altered evidence. You should further note that in the case of aspirational statements, the nature of the type of businesses presented on the Republic Europe platform is such that they are likely to have high ambitions, and we may approve statements that convey those ambitions even where we do not believe, or we do not have a view on whether it is likely, that they will be fully realised. The pre-money valuation and investment sought in the campaign are those set by the business: they are not reviewed or established by us, and the valuation is not an independent view of what the business is worth. Given the nature and type of businesses presented on the Republic Europe platform, it is possible that the business has very little cash remaining prior to receiving this investment, and the investment sought may be necessary for the business's on-going existence.

Republic Europe does not make investment recommendations to you. No communications from Republic Europe, through this website or any other medium, should be construed as an investment recommendation. Further, nothing on this website shall be considered an offer to sell, or a solicitation of an offer to buy, any security to any person in any jurisdiction to whom or in which such offer, solicitation or sale is unlawful. Republic Europe does not provide legal, financial or tax advice of any kind. If you have any questions with respect to legal, financial or tax matters relevant to your interactions with Republic Europe, you should consult a professional adviser.

Tax Relief (SEIS)

This business is eligible for SEIS relief - providing qualifying investors with income tax relief of 50% of their investment and certain other tax reliefs. Tax treatment depends on individual circumstances and is subject to change in future. Click to learn more.

Tax Relief (EIS)

This business is eligible for EIS relief - providing qualifying investors with income tax relief of 30% of their investment and certain other tax reliefs. Tax treatment depends on individual circumstances and is subject to change in future. Click to learn more.

Valuation (pre-money)

Valuation rounded from Convertible

This is the fully-diluted pre-money valuation of the business (i.e. before the new investment comes in and including issued options and other equity interests). In contrast, the post-money valuation is based on inclusion of the new investment in the value.

It is calculated as the pre-money valuation plus the amount of new investment. e.g. If Company A is ascribed a pre-money valuation of £1,200,000 by prospective investors investing £300,000, its post-money valuation is £1,500,000.

The investee business is responsible for setting its own valuation, it has not been prescribed by Republic Europe.

Pitch type

Investing in a convertible campaign allows you to invest today, with your investment converting into equity in the future, at a discount compared to other investors.

Learn more about pitch type on Republic Europe

Equity Offered

The equity offered is the percentage of the company’s shares being issued in return for the amount of investment raised.

When the amount raised is less than 100%, the equity offered is based on the target raise. Once the company has raised over 100% it is based on the total raised.

In some scenarios, entrepreneurs may accept additional direct investment after closing their Republic Europe campaign. Provided this is within 6 months of the closing and on the same terms, we do not typically offer pre-emption rights on that extra investment (where you have the opportunity to invest again to maintain your percentage shareholding).

Learn more about investing and pre-emption rights.

Nominee investment

This shows if you are able to choose, when making an investment, that you be represented by, and your shareholding be managed by, the Nominee investment.

Custodian

If you invest in this Campaign, Republic Europe will act as Custodian rather than provide our standard nominee service. This is due to the fact that the business is not directly involved in the share sale and Republic Europe will not benefit from any rights under a shareholder agreement. As a result, Republic Europe will handle administrative tasks as we do normally, but you will not have information or voting rights, updates from the business, preemption on future fundraising, or ongoing support about business trading activity.

Secondary market

This shows if the business has opted-in or opted-out of allowing its shares to be bought and sold on the secondary market.

Find out more

Direct investment

If available, this is an option to invest and hold shares 'directly' in the company (rather than via the Nominee investment). This option is only available to those investing over the threshold amount, which is determined by the fundraising company.

If you choose to hold your shares directly, you will be responsible for any contractual or administrative arrangements with the company you are investing in.

Payment options

We are not able to accept card payments for investments into this sector. You can pay for your investment by creating a bank transfer, using funds in your investment account or create a Pay by Bank payment. Your investment will only be completed once the funds have reached our account.

Business Involvement

This Campaign offers shares for sale in business that is not directly involved in this Campaign or the sale. As a result, the Campaign and post-investment experience, including investor rights, will differ from a business-led campaign on Republic Europe. Most notably, the business will not engage with investors in the discussion forums both during and after the sale or provide any updates to investors.
