Left Hand Robotics has developed the first commercial-class, self-driving snow clearing robot capable of removing snow from sidewalks and walkways. The SnowBot Pro uses advanced GPS technology to follow a pre-determined path and an array of sensors to avoid obstacles during operation. Its rotating brush clears a sidewalk from edge-to-edge in a single pass to meet even the highest standards.

Manage Risk Better
Reduce insurance & risk management costs
- Reduce the number of laborers – leading to reduced work-related injuries
- Get detailed SnowBot Pro reports with snow removal job data & photos.

Deliver Cleaner Walkways
Meet high service standards of 1-2″ snowfall thresholds & zero tolerance SLAs
- SnowBot’s 4′ wide rotating brush clears snow better than shoveling
- Salt and other deicers can be applied automatically both before a snow event and after the brush clears a walkway
- The robot can reach places that other larger equipment cannot.
Get Dramatic Cost Savings
Reduce laborers required & clear snow faster
- Eliminate up to 80% of shovelers required when a snowstorm hits
