We are a data-driven company.
Prakruty collects and analyses agricultural data from farms across Chhattisgarh, and every part of our operation runs there.
From smallholder paddy terraces in Dhamtari to vegetable clusters along the Durg-Raipur belt, our intelligence is grounded in real seasonal field observations, not synthetic laboratory assumptions.
Why We Chose to Build in Chhattisgarh
Chhattisgarh represents the true pulse of Indian smallholder agriculture: rich biodiversity, varied agro-climatic zones ranging from northern hills to central plains and southern plateaus, and acute seasonal shifts between heavy monsoon humidity and dry summer heat. By building our edge models and research hubs here, our tools are proven where tough connectivity and diverse pests matter most.

From a Terrace to Field-Ready Intelligence
Prakruty started on a breezy residential terrace, with a handful of engineers and agronomists growing vegetables in simple wooden boxes. When sudden fungal blight wiped out our tomato plants within four days, we saw firsthand how powerless growers are without fast, local diagnostics.
We pointed basic camera vision scripts at infected leaves to distinguish early spot from late blight. Soon, neighboring kitchen gardeners and terrace farmers began bringing us troubled leaves to scan.
What started as a kitchen-garden experiment has matured into a production edge architecture. Today, our quantized vision models run in 2.4 seconds on basic smartphones without cellular data, powering everyday decisions for growers across Chhattisgarh.
Our Mission
To give every grower instant, practical agricultural intelligence in their own field, eliminating chemical guesswork and protecting harvests with zero jargon and zero dependence on cloud networks.
Our Vision
A future where regional farm data empowers farmers rather than exploiting them, and where sustainable food production is resilient, water-efficient, and accessible to every family farm.
Our Values
The four clear standards that determine how we write code, test hardware, and partner with rural communities.
Ecological Integrity
