About

The independent robotic mower lab

Mowy Lab is a specialised editorial outlet, founded to cover a sector where generic content dominates. The newsroom analyses, tests and compares every model available on the European market with the methodological rigour expected from a reference technical publication.

Founded in Vannes · Brittany

01

Positioning

Mowy Lab covers robotic mowers and connected garden machinery. No media group or industrial owner holds the title, and no brand funds the newsroom. The business model relies on affiliate revenue, clearly disclosed to readers on every article.

02

Anchorage

The newsroom is based in Vannes, Brittany, with a satellite in Nantes. This Atlantic anchorage shapes the editorial perspective: damp climate, varied terrain, seaside gardens, coastal slopes. A field reality that sets Mowy Lab apart from generic content produced from a remote desk.

03

Editorial voice

A voice that owns its authority without arrogance, that takes a position without complacency, that ranks without condescension. Constructed sentences, figures woven into narrative, precise technical vocabulary (visual odometry, RTK navigation, virtual perimeter) always explained when the topic demands it.

04

Testing bench

Every model covered is analysed then tested by the newsroom for two weeks minimum, under real-world conditions. A network of partner gardens across Brittany and Pays de la Loire covers different sizes and configurations, allowing cross-checks instead of relying on a single installation.

05

Scoring criteria

Every model is evaluated against twelve weighted criteria shared across all content. The full methodology is published and linked from every article. The score is not an arithmetic mean but an editorial reading that prioritises the most representative European-market uses.

06

Commercial independence

Affiliate links generate a commission that funds the editorial work. That commission does not influence the score, the order of recommendations, or the models that were excluded. The methodology box on every article restates this commitment.

07

Updates

Every buying guide is reviewed at each significant market shift. The date of the most recent update is displayed at the top of every article. The newsroom also publishes an annual market recap each January.

08

Visual signature

Photography in natural light, framed inside real gardens, with macro shots of technical details. Mowy Lab favours its own imagery over manufacturer assets, which is a strong credibility marker.
