In an era of mounting climate risks and fragmented farm-level data, the promise of AI in agriculture lies not just in automation, but in transformation. Cropin, a leading global agri-tech startup, has embraced this promise by developing a robust Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) platform that digitizes the entire agricultural value chain. Leveraging artificial intelligence, machine learning, remote sensing, and deep learning on satellite and drone imagery, Cropin empowers farmers, agribusinesses, and governments to make informed decisions that enhance productivity, transparency, and sustainability.
Fusing data and design — the Cropin technology stack
At the core of Cropin’s innovation is a suite of AI-powered solutions designed to tackle the most pressing challenges in agriculture:
- SmartFarm provides visibility into on-ground operations, enabling real-time monitoring of resources, processes, and performance.
- SmartRisk uses AI-based business intelligence to help financial institutions and governments assess credit risk and provide timely loan recovery support.
- SmartWare supports supply chain efficiency by managing traceability, compliance, quality control, and inventory across packhouses and exporters.
- AcreSquare bridges the last-mile gap between technology and farmers, allowing companies to communicate directly with growers, share advice, and facilitate training.
- PlotRisk combines satellite imagery with AI to predict crop health, yield, pest outbreaks, and water stress at the individual farm level—creating a hyper-localized, predictive agriculture engine.
Together, these tools form a comprehensive digital ecosystem that maximizes per-acre value by minimizing risk, enhancing visibility, reducing costs, and ultimately increasing yields.
Scaling intelligence — impact across farms, crops, and communities
Cropin’s reach today is a testament to the scalability of its model. The firm has helped digitize over 16 million acres of farmland, managing 388 crops across more than 9,400 crop varieties, and impacting nearly 7 million farmers globally. Its partnerships span agribusinesses and government programs across continents. Cropin has also been recognized as an ally of the Global Action Agenda for Innovation in Agriculture and is part of the European Carbon+ Farming Coalition, which aims to accelerate sustainable farming and decarbonization under the European Green Deal.
From pilot to paradigm — embedding AI into the future of farming
Cropin’s journey reflects a shift from fragmented, reactive farm practices to proactive, predictive agriculture. With a committed annual recurring revenue of over $15 million, the company has proven that technology-led transformation in agriculture is not only viable but essential. As global food systems face unprecedented pressure, platforms like Cropin are redefining how agricultural resilience and prosperity are cultivated—one field at a time.
