Optifish has developed an algorithmic calculator that provides data-driven production planning and can evaluate and optimize aquaculture facility design. The company was formed about a year ago by CEO Vegard Hansen, CPO Fredrik Gundersen and CTO Håkon Grini and currently employs five people including a lead developer and an expert advisor. Prior to the funding it has secured three customers: Andfjord Salmon, Helgeland Miljøfisk and Icelandic Laxey. Optifish has been focused on validating the algorithm with customers and customer follow-up has consumed significant time to date. With the NOK 8 million raise the company plans to embed the algorithm into a user-friendly application to enable scaling while remaining a lean team and using AI tools to accelerate development. Founders report they retain most of the company after the round.
