Aerobotics is a South African-based AI company that specializes in precision agriculture. The company was founded in 2014 and initially focused on using drones to collect data and imagery of crops. However, they soon realized that the real value was in the data analysis and insights that could be derived from this imagery, and thus began their transition into an AI company.

Aerobotics uses machine learning algorithms to analyze the data collected from drones and satellites to provide farmers with actionable insights about their crops. Their platform can detect issues such as pest and disease outbreaks, nutrient deficiencies, and water stress, enabling farmers to make data-driven decisions and optimize their crop yields.

Aerobotics has also developed a tool called Aeroview InField, which allows farmers to collect and analyze data from their crops using their mobile devices. This enables farmers to quickly identify and address issues while in the field, saving them time and resources.
