AgroLend
We provide a crop-monitoring data layer for lenders and insurers, delivering verified field areas, crop-season history and yield indicators sourced from open satellite data. The output comes as reports and an API, not as a lending product itself.
The problem
Today, agri lenders and crop insurers struggle with verification. Field visits to confirm declared crop areas are costly and time-consuming, draining operational budgets and delaying lending decisions. There is limited access to objective historical crop data, making it hard to assess borrower reliability or track seasonal patterns. Gathering evidence for claims and assessments is slow, particularly when insurance loss events occur and rapid settlement is crucial. These pains hit hardest when portfolio growth accelerates, when digital-lending strategies demand automation, or when major claims must be settled quickly.
The product
AgroLend is a crop-monitoring data layer that delivers verified field areas, crop-season history and yield indicators sourced from open satellite data. The system ingests field polygons and consent records, processes Sentinel-2 satellite imagery to verify cropped areas and flag seasonal anomalies, and outputs evidence reports in PDF and JSON alongside an API for batch processing. Core modules include parcel registry and consent handling, satellite crop-area verification, evidence reports, crop-history tracking with vegetation-index indicators, a full lender API with audit logging, and optional model validation testing against the lender's own ground-truth data. The lender retains all creditworthiness decisions; AgroLend provides the objective data.
What it does
Parcel registry & consent
Borrowers and lenders supply field polygons along with explicit consent records.
Satellite crop-area verification
Sentinel-2 satellite imagery provides cropped-area and season activity indicators.
Evidence report
Each parcel receives a PDF and JSON report that clearly states the methods and analytical limits.
Crop-history & yield indicators
The system tracks multi-season vegetation-index history and flags anomalies—these are indicators only, not yield guarantees.
Lender API & portal
API keys, batch processing capabilities, and a complete audit log are included.
Model validation pack
We backtest the system against ground truth data the lender provides, with fully documented accuracy and bias tests.
Problems it solves
- Field visits to verify declared crop areas are costly and time-consuming.
- There is limited access to objective evidence of historical crop data.
- Gathering evidence for claims and assessments is slow, delaying decisions.
Standards it follows
- Sentinel satellite data is free and open to use, including for commercial applications and integration into lender workflows.
