Since its foundation in 2017, EEVE has used two alternative names: AIRobots (2017)[1][2] and The Toadi Order (2018–2020).[3]

EEVE's flagship product, the perimeter-free lawn robot Willow, is a robot capable of mowing lawns and conducting surveillance, with the ability to equip additional tools and operate solely on computer vision and artificial intelligence.[4][5][6] Willow was introduced in the United States via a Kickstarter campaign in 2020 with object recognition and security features. The first test robot deliveries in the US occurred in 2023.[7][8]

Early attempts at perimeter-free solutions were Ambrogio[9] and Husqvarna which was RTK-based solution designed for larger areas.[10]
