Vivid Machines develops computer vision and machine learning technology to improve yield and product quality in fruit production.


They predict and manage yield by providing a clear view of tree-level data in real time. They also help diagnose pests, disease, and nutrient deficiencies through a vision system which is able to see early indications that would be invisible to the human eye.

An online platform monitors weather, fertilizer applications, and crop rotation history to deliver a comprehensive overview of crop status. The platform records, manages, and presents users' data via web and mobile applications. With timely information, farmers can optimize their fertilizer program and operation.

Ground Truth Ag's solution improves the process of obtaining and grading grain samples. This solution enables farmers to view and maintain records of their grain quality in real-time, directly on the combine, and use that information to manage risk and increase income. This technology eliminates discrepancies and saves time and money for both farmers and the companies that buy their grain.
