About us
Agerpoint provides spatial intelligence to empower a sustainable food system and to protect natural environments. Agerpoint tools help estimate yield, spot disease, calculate carbon sequestration potential, evaluate biodiversity, and more. The Agerpoint Capture app makes capturing detailed 3D ground truth of crops and trees as easy as recording a smartphone video. Upload models to Agerpoint Cloud, a spatial data platform, to derive accurate plant metrics via Agerpoint’s machine learning pipeline. Agerpoint Cloud supports third-party data from satellites, sensors, drones, and maps. Through a combination of artificial intelligence, high performance computing, computer vision and advanced analytics, the Agerpoint platform fuses together sensor data from mobile devices, terrestrial vehicles, drones and satellites with other information and human observations to create a highly precise, quantifiable and interactive digital record to enable better decision-making for clients across agriculture inputs, food production, forestry, insurance, government and conservation organizations. Agerpoint's Know Your Carbon™ serves to provide credibility and transparency to carbon credits by leveraging Agerpoint’s unique ability to create highly accurate 3D plant models and efficiently extract physical measurements and health information using automation and AI. Know Your Carbon™ was recognized by the World Economic Forum as a winner of the Carbon Market Challenge as announced at the UN’s Climate Change Conference, COP 26. Agerpoint was also named a 2022 Technology Pioneer by the World Economic Forum. With these advancements, our mission is to improve quality of life for our planet’s inhabitants and mitigate climate change by enabling a transformational shift in how we measure and understand plants, crops and forests.

Agerpoint welcomes the United States Federal Government's support of new guidelines for high-integrity voluntary carbon markets in the transition towards a more sustainable economy. 🌍 The recently announced principles are accompanied by new climate opportunities for American farmers and landowners provided by the USDA. By reducing the barriers to participation in the #VCM, programs like these can support rural economies and maintain land ownership for generations to come. Our team at Agerpoint remains committed to providing accessible and affordable solutions to measuring and monitoring agriculture and nature. By empowering the stewards of our land with innovative tools, we can help restore trust in natural climate solutions and scale environmental markets.

This week, Agerpoint attended the Food Innovation Conference in the UAE. The conference was organized by the World Economic Forum and Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum Global Initiatives and was appropriately titled “Reimagining Future Food Systems.” Our technology was featured in the Innovation Showcase and we were honored to demonstrate our platform and work to the UAE Ministry of Climate Change and Environment, leaders from Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum Global Initiatives along with other global innovators, private and public sector organizations and farmers working to solve challenges in food systems. Major takeaway --> Technology solutions exist today to help support the future of agriculture and to address hunger and climate change, but the innovations and bold action we urgently need are in the form of uncommon collaboration and creative business models.
