FruitSpec

FruitSpec operates in the agricultural technology sector, focusing on enhancing profitability in the fruit market by providing precise early season yield estimations. The company serves a diverse range of clients, including fruit growers, distributors, and retailers, who rely on accurate yield data for critical business decisions. Traditional yield estimation methods, which involve counting fruits on randomly selected trees and extrapolating the data, often result in inaccuracies of 30% to 40%. FruitSpec addresses this issue by utilizing patented hyperspectral imaging and computer vision algorithms to differentiate green fruits from green leaves in images, enabling accurate fruit counts and size estimations. The business model is service-based; FruitSpec conducts orchard scans and delivers detailed reports. These reports include the number of fruits, size distribution, and heat maps showing fruit quantity distribution within the orchard. Revenue is generated through service fees for these yield estimation reports.
