University and institutional campuses operate like small cities: open, dynamic, and highly visible. Sidekick is designed for these environments, where crews must work safely around students, staff, and visitors while maintaining consistent standards across large acreage.

FAQ
It’s the fastest way to expand capacity, reduce labor strain, and deliver consistent results across parks, campuses, and golf courses, without replacing your existing fleet.
What does Havenshine do?
Havenshine builds practical solutions for professional grounds care, with solutions that offer intelligent follow autonomy, or full autonomy. Havenshine systems extend the capabilities of crews and the equipment they already use, helping operators cover more ground safely and consistently in real-world environments like parks, campuses, golf courses, and commercial properties.
How is Havenshine different from fully autonomous or robotic mowers?
Our Sidekick solution follows a path created in real time by a human-operated mower, allowing the system to adapt instantly to changing conditions while maintaining human judgment and control, so it's easy to manage obstacles, debris, and other edge cases. This makes Sidekick safer, more flexible, and better suited for public-space operation. Our fully autonomous solution, ideal for controlled environments, benefits from the substantial training data provided through Sidekick, giving our autonomous mowers an industry-leading level of real-world understanding.
Is Sidekick safe to operate around people?
Yes. Sidekick is designed specifically for environments where people and obstacles can appear unexpectedly. Operators remain within line of sight and can take immediate control at any moment. The system includes emergency stop mechanisms, proximity awareness, and obstacle detection, and is designed to meet or exceed commercial equipment safety standards for public spaces.
Do operators need special training to use Sidekick?
No specialized robotics training is required, Sidekick works the way crews already work today. Operators mow as they normally would with a Captain mower, and Sidekick follows that pattern, offset to the exact amount for maximum efficiency, and all in real time. Teams with Sidekick are productive quickly, with minimal onboarding.
Do I need to replace my existing fleet to use Havenshine solutions?
No. Sidekick is designed to retrofit onto leading electric zero-turn mowers. This allows organizations to add autonomy without replacing trusted equipment or making large upfront changes to their fleet. It’s the fastest, most cost-effective way to expand capacity.
What types of environments does Sidekick work best in?
Sidekick is built for real-world, changing environments, including municipal parks and recreation areas, university and corporate campuses, golf courses, and commercial grounds. It is especially well-suited for environments that are active, public, and difficult or impossible to fully isolate or pre-map.
How much more work can crews get done with Sidekick?
Sidekick enables a single operator to mow with two machines simultaneously, effectively doubling mowing capacity per operator. In live deployments, Sidekick has demonstrated 3.5+ acres per hour on 74-inch decks, while maintaining consistent coverage and safety in active environments.
Does Sidekick require mapping, wires, or fixed infrastructure?
No. Sidekick creates and follows paths in real time based on the human-operated mower. It does not require pre-mapping, buried wires, beacons, or external infrastructure, making it well-suited for sites that change frequently.
What kind of data or reporting does Havenshine provide?
Havenshine software provides visibility into key operational metrics such as acres cut, runtime, and utilization. This data helps supervisors and managers understand productivity and ROI without changing existing workflows or systems.
Is Havenshine building fully autonomous mowers?
Havenshine’s long-term vision includes fully autonomous grounds care in controlled environments. Today, Sidekick delivers immediate value by expanding capacity safely and practically. Our fully autonomous platform, Hero, demonstrates what’s possible in predefined environments while Sidekick serves as the scalable, near-term solution for real-world operations.
