About

CredoSense Inc. is a Toronto-based ag-technology company that designs and manufactures a low-power crop health diagnostics system delivered through a Hardware-as-a-Service (HaaS) subscription. Its flagship product—a handheld leaf-chamber—fuses transmittance spectroscopy, plant gas exchange infrastructure, micro-climate sensors, soil probes and RGB imaging in one platform. Embedded Artificial Intelligence (AI) processes sensor readings, satellite imagery and weather feeds to generate acre-level prescriptions for irrigation, nutrient application and pest control in under one minute. The system is calibrated via rigorous field trials and communicates over LTE/5G networks, giving certified crop advisers, agronomists and medium-to-large growers rapid, ground-truth insight without the burden of capital ownership.

Project

CredoSense Inc. is developing the Regulation-Aware Agronomic Intelligence System (RAAIS), an artificial intelligence agent that helps crop advisors and growers pinpoint crop stress and make better decisions about crop health. RAAIS uses data from CredoSense’s Leaf Chamber system, which measures plant, soil, and microclimate conditions in the field in under a minute, along with evapotranspiration (ET) data and fungal spore load (proprietary technology).  Through the support of the Development and Commercialization program, CredoSense will work with the ventureLAB TDS to train and benchmark the RAAIS AI Components. 

Impact & Outcomes

By the end of the 6-month project, CredoSense will have developed and tested a packaged, field-ready RAAIS prototype integrated into their existing cloud platform.  Within 3 years of project completion, CredoSense anticipates the product will generate up to $600,000 in incremental annual recurring revenue and support the addition of 2- new full-time team members.
