Summary
Neatleaf is an indoor ag robotics startup. Their flagship product is the Spyder - a fully autonomous robotic platform that scans indoor cultivation crops generating millions of data points on plant health and growth metrics. This data is analyzed and turned into actionable insights for the cultivation team to assess, monitor, and remedy. When used right, data is one of the most powerful tools a farmer can have, especially indoor when they have more control over the environmental factors. They claim that their AI-driven technology will save growers time and money but more importantly, allows them to grow healthier, more profitable crops through daily management and forecasting tools.
