Goal: fund 5 new robots
- 🤖 $1 Plants 7 Seeds!
Every dollar helps create a new Grasshopper--an underwater robot that can plant Seagrass 15x faster then humans! $1 plants 7 seagrass seeds! - 🗳️ Name a Robot!
When you donate, you’ll get to vote on names for these underwater robots—and one lucky DDC member will win the honor of naming a robot entirely! - 🌱 Seagrass captures 2x more CO₂ per acre than the Amazon
Seagrass covers just 0.1% of the ocean floor, but accounts for 20% of the ocean’s entire CO₂ sequestration ability! It’s also a crucial nursery for marine life, making it one of the most powerful ecosystems on the planet. - Let’s build some regenerative robots, DDC!
Name this robot!

This is a big issue as these ecosystems are vital for carbon sequestration, marine biodiversity, coastal protection, and fisheries that support millions of livelihoods.
Reefgen’s underwater robots can restore seagrass 15 times faster than manual methods, tackling the rapid decline of seagrass meadows through scalable, regenerative robots!
DRAG
Reefgen builds underwater robots that plant seagrass—faster, cheaper, and at scale.
They’re adaptable, easy to use, and empower local teams worldwide to restore marine ecosystems with speed, safety, and consistency.
It’s like giving nature a high-tech helping hand. 🌊🤖

The technology Reefgen has created has the potential to enable seagrass restoration to be upscaled and become more cost effective. This will increase success in using seagrass restoration as a nature-based solution for tackling climate change and for restoring seagrass meadows where they have been lost.
The technology used by Reefgen has potential application across a range of systems and could alleviate bottlenecks for seagrass restoration.
