Overview
Founded in 2017 in Waregem, EEVE has developed the Willow, an autonomous outdoor robot designed for lawn mowing and garden maintenance. With over 3,000 units deployed, the company has moved beyond early adopter phase and is building toward broader consumer market penetration.
EEVE's approach combines robotics hardware with AI-driven navigation and mapping, enabling the Willow to operate without perimeter wires and to handle varied outdoor terrain. The consumer outdoor robot market is growing as homeowners seek automated solutions for time-intensive garden tasks.
EEVE is part of Belgium's emerging consumer robotics segment, distinct from the industrial robotics companies such as Movu Robotics that dominate the country's robotics deal flow.

In the news
- People already know how a robot should perform in the field. The problem is that we keep testing and building them in labs, making the technology more complex instead of more useful. True simplicity doesn’t come from adding more. It comes from deeply understanding your own world your movements, your environment, your daily reality. That’s exactly what Willow X does. You lead. She follows. You show the movement, and she mirrors your actions in your environment. Simple. Collaborative. Built for the real world. Willow X isn’t just
- Looking forward to meeting fellow robotics enthusiasts and growing the Belgian robotics community together!
