  Participated · Seed · Feb 2023

  Inarix provides an AI-powered crop analysis platform that lets users take a picture of their crops with a smartphone to get real-time, multicriteria crop qualification results. Launched in 2018 by Pierre Chapelle and based in Paris, the product replaces time-consuming actions from several machines with a single fast smartphone-based measurement. Today the platform analyzes two main crops—barley and soft wheat—and the company reports a user base of more than 400 users in France. Inarix plans to nearly double its crop analysis capabilities and add new crops including corn, soybeans and coffee within the next 6–12 months. The company intends to use recent funding to scale its technology, grow its team, and pave the way for expansion into new markets including the United States. The recent fundraise supports these operational and expansion plans.
