Our take

Both freshwater and seawater ecosystems have been hugely impacted by over-fishing. Aquabyte sets out to revolutionise the fishing industry in a sustainable way with its AI software to support fish farms.

Aquabyte offers advanced technology designed to simplify the lives of fish farmers. Users can easily install its camera and utilise it for population analysis, assessing factors such as health, growth, weight, and indicators of welfare, including lice count. This data is then integrated into a software platform that leverages AI to facilitate informed decisions regarding harvesting, biomass control, and more. This approach effectively reduces the intensity of farming practices, leading to enhanced efficiency and sustainability in the food production model.

The market for sustainable food production is huge, but Aquabyte has found a niche within it and operates without direct competition. Its growth has been impressive, with farms stationed globally, and its 2022 funding is being focused on greater expansion across the world.
