Calice develops computational modeling and AI-driven "virtual trials" that simulate plant–environment–management interactions to predict product performance across climates and regions. Its platform combines environmental sequences with client-provided performance data to reduce the number of physical field experiments and shorten product development timelines; the company reports being able to model future years from one or two years of data and to identify more commercial candidates using fewer test sites. Calice works with major agricultural companies including Syngenta, BASF, Corteva, GDM, TMG, Nufarm, Nuseed and Puna.bio across crops such as soybean, corn, wheat, cotton, sugarcane, barley, canola, carinata, potato and sorghum, with discussions underway for horticulture. Founded in 2022, the company has expanded into Brazil and the United States and employs just over 20 professionals, mainly scientists and agronomists. Financially, it completed a roughly $1 million pre-seed and a $2.5 million seed round to fund expansion, and management plans additional fundraising to accelerate growth.

Founded in December 2024 by Germán Serrano and Hernán Asorey, Ab Astra develops advanced muongraphy technology that uses cosmic-ray muons to create high-definition images of the interior of large geologic bodies and critical infrastructure. The company targets exploration and production applications in mining of critical minerals such as lithium, copper, uranium and rare earths, and also cites dual-use applications in defense and nuclear sectors. Its technology combines compact next-generation sensors, reconstruction algorithms and AI-driven 3D/4D interpretation models that the founders say can deliver large improvements in spatial resolution versus comparable methods. Ab Astra plans to commercialize through a mix of measurement-and-analysis services, field equipment installation, and a continuous-monitoring platform for 4D subsurface interpretation. Current development work includes first-in-class sensor design, patio testing of initial units, algorithm development and preparation for pilot tests in salt flats (salares). The company positions its solution as a way to reduce exploratory costs, improve resource modeling and support environmental monitoring such as aquifer protection.
