H2L Robotics India

Meet the team.

H2L Robotics India Private Limited is a Mumbai-based data-annotation studio building high-quality training data for computer-vision and AI teams. What began in 2026 as the annotation arm of H2L Robotics BV in the Netherlands is now a growing in-house studio of 15+ annotators, reviewers and researchers — with our own QA discipline, tooling and clients across agritech, medical imaging, autonomous mobility and language.

H2L Robotics BV

We're a wholly owned subsidiary of H2L Robotics BV, a Dutch robotics company founded in 2019 that designs and builds autonomous machines for agriculture — with a focus on virus detection and precision treatment in tulip and potato fields. Their machines run at scale across Dutch fields, with over 100 units operating as of 2025.

That heritage is where our precision comes from: our team was trained on the same field imagery those machines rely on. Today we bring that standard to clients well beyond agriculture.

Our journey

Built field by field.

June 2026
Team assembled · first annotations delivered · first invoice raised

In June 2026, H2L Robotics India opened its doors at 91 Springboard, Vikhroli West and assembled its founding team. Within the month the team onboarded onto Label Studio, learned the SOPs, and completed its first full set of annotations on field imagery from the Netherlands — and raised its first invoice. A working annotation operation, live from month one.

Development of the POTECTOR300 begins

H2L Robotics began development of the POTECTOR300 — an autonomous robot for potato fields that uses RTK-GPS navigation and AI-powered cameras to detect virus-infected plants and diseases before they spread, protecting yield and reducing chemical use.

SELECTOR225 introduced

The SELECTOR225 was introduced as the wider-width variant of the SELECTOR family — a 225cm expanded bed machine built for larger tulip fields demanding greater coverage per pass, with the same autonomous RTK-GPS navigation and AI-powered virus detection as the SELECTOR180.
