    About the company

    Mavrx

    Mavrx uses imaging to bring the benefits of big data to the $1 Trillion agriculture industry. The Mavrx platform provides an aerial crop monitoring service that saves growers money by helping them more efficiently deploy their workforce & expensive resources (such as fertilizer and pesticides). With an easy-to-use web platform, growers get a real-time management dashboard for their entire field without having to physically walk the farm. Using frequent imagery (from drones, planes, & satellites), and proprietary crop-specific analytics based on hard science, Mavrx not only remotely measures crop health, but identifies issues before they are visible to the naked eye. The Mavrx platform is already used by some of the top farms and wine producers around the world. What Mavrx has delivered is a measurable improvement in the efficiency of field management, and that’s just with the minimum viable product.
