OUR STORY

The Journey of Acre Insights

Acre Insights began in 2019 with a spark of curiosity and conviction. What started as a final-year university project to detect weed infestation in sugarcane fields has grown into a continent-wide mission.

Led by 2 women who are both engineers and dreamers, we’ve built Acre Insights from the ground up, literally from a team of 2 to a company offering end-to-end intelligence for agriculture, forestry, and carbon.

​

At first, we were flying small RGB drones over sugarcane. Today, our work spans crop monitoring, forest intelligence, and carbon sequestration. We’ve grown a licensed fleet of pilots operating multispectral, LiDAR, and spraying drones, alongside a tech stack that integrates AI, machine learning, and software pipelines to deliver real-time insights at scale.

​

But more than just technology, we’ve grown a vision: to create traceability for every acre of land on this continent, driving food sovereignty, sustainability, and climate resilience.

We remain continuously inspired - by the farmers who trusted us early on, the forestry partners who push us to innovate, the investors who believe in our journey, and the growing team that brings grit, skill, and heart to the mission every day.

​

We’re engineers by training, farmers at heart, and believers in a future where every acre counts.

With love and gratitude,
