A network of autonomous AI agents that continuously ingest field data from IoT sensors, cameras, drones, and satellites — then produce decisions and execute them. Not dashboards. Not alerts. Decisions. Delivered via WhatsApp in the language your farmers already speak.
Each agent specializes in a different aspect of field management. Some act autonomously. Others recommend actions and wait for your confirmation via WhatsApp. Click any card to learn more.
Continuous soil monitoring and fertilizer optimization
Monitors soil moisture, pH, NPK, and temperature continuously. Produces fertilizer recommendations per plot.
Automated irrigation from soil and weather data
Combines soil moisture, weather forecasts, and crop water needs to trigger irrigation automatically.
Computer vision for early threat detection
Computer vision analyzes camera and drone imagery for threats. Delivers early warnings and treatment protocols via WhatsApp.
Optimal harvest date from maturity and market data
Cross-references maturity indicators, weather forecasts, and market prices to determine optimal harvest date per plot.
Next-season crop and variety recommendations
Recommends what to plant next season based on soil history, climate projections, and market demand data.
Satellite crop health scoring and shade management
Satellite and drone data for continuous crop health scoring, shade management, and intervention zone mapping.
Hyperlocal 72-hour forecasts and extreme alerts
Hyperlocal forecasting fused with on-farm sensor data. 72-hour field-level forecasts and extreme weather alerts sent automatically.
Auto-order seeds and fertilizer at best prices
Auto-calculates input needs from the crop plan, finds best prices at nearest agro-dealers, and places orders via M-Pesa.
Speak in your language, get AI responses by voice
Farmers speak in their language via WhatsApp voice notes or phone call. AI responds with spoken recommendations, alerts, and confirmations in 2,000+ languages. No typing, no reading required.
Match seasonal workers to harvest demand
Matches seasonal labor demand with available workers based on crop calendar, harvest timing, and local labor registry. Handles worker scheduling, task assignments, and mobile money payments.
Adapt crop optimization for controlled environments
Labs cross-pollination agent that adapts field-tested crop optimization protocols for controlled environment agriculture. From ground to orbit — what works on African farms can feed Mars.
Aquifer mapping, irrigation scheduling, rainwater harvesting
Comprehensive water resource management across the farm. Maps aquifer levels, optimizes irrigation scheduling, and designs rainwater harvesting systems based on terrain and seasonal patterns.
"Before Watoko, I was guessing. Now my phone tells me exactly what my soil needs."— James K., Nyeri County
Brain operates in a continuous loop — sensing, observing, analyzing, deciding, and delivering. Every cycle makes the next one smarter.
Every user gets the right tool for their role. Farmers get WhatsApp. Managers get dashboards. Agronomists get deep field-level data.
Daily recommendations, one-tap approvals, weather alerts, pest warnings. Voice messages for low-literacy users. Eventually: lightweight mobile app.
Multi-farm overview, aggregate health maps, input ordering for all members, season performance reports.
Field-level detail, historical data, intervention tracking, side-by-side plot comparisons.
"The voice agent changed everything. My mother can now get farming advice without reading a single word."— David O., Kisii
Brain fuses five distinct data streams into a single, coherent picture of every plot on your farm.
Soil moisture, pH, NPK, temperature, humidity. LoRaWAN connectivity across all plots.
NDVI, canopy cover, field boundaries, forest monitoring. Sentinel-2 + SatLogic.
Pest/disease detection, fruit maturity, weed identification. Edge AI processing.
Topography, crop counting, damage assessment, shade canopy analysis.
Forecasts, historical patterns, microclimate models from multiple providers.
Watoko was built for rural Africa — not adapted for it. Every system works without continuous connectivity. Intelligence doesn't stop when the signal does.
Sensors transmit over LoRaWAN with 15km range — no cellular network required. On-device models process data at the edge.
Every recommendation can be delivered via SMS or USSD on basic phones. Voice Agent works over standard phone calls — no data needed.
Actions queue locally and sync when connectivity returns. No data loss, no missed decisions, no gaps in the timeline.
Satellite imagery and crop models cached locally. Field teams access full farm intelligence without a connection.
Nearby devices relay data through mesh networks, extending coverage across valleys, hills, and areas without towers.
All field sensors run on solar. No grid power, no batteries to replace. Deploy and forget — they just work.
Every observation Brain makes flows into Market, Ecosystem, and Labs — and their data flows back to make Brain smarter.
Yield predictions power forward contracts. Harvest quality data sets fair pricing. Market price signals optimize harvest timing and next-season crop selection.
Farm performance data enables credit scoring. Satellite data triggers insurance payouts. Credit enables farmers to invest in better inputs.
Every sensor reading, satellite image, and observation feeds research models. Labs returns optimized crop protocols that improve Brain's recommendations every season.
We handle everything: site assessment, sensor installation, satellite activation, agent configuration, training, and support. You just farm.

Brain uses LoRaWAN connectivity for sensor data, which works independently of cellular networks with ranges up to 15km. Satellite imagery is processed in the cloud. Recommendations are delivered via SMS when WhatsApp isn't available, and the Voice Agent works over basic phone calls. The system is designed for low-connectivity environments from the ground up.
Each agent cross-validates data against multiple sources. If a soil sensor sends anomalous readings, the system flags it and compensates using satellite data and neighboring sensor readings. You'll receive a maintenance alert, and our field team can replace faulty hardware within 48 hours.
Brain starts delivering value from day one using regional models trained on thousands of farms. Within one season, the system calibrates to your specific soil, microclimate, and practices. By season two, recommendations are highly personalized and outperform regional averages.
No. Brain works with whatever data is available. You can start with satellite imagery alone (zero hardware cost) and add sensors progressively. Each additional data source improves precision, but the system provides value at every level. See our Grants program for subsidized hardware.
Yes. Brain delivers recommendations via SMS and USSD for basic phones. The Voice Agent works over standard phone calls — just dial in and speak. Cooperative managers with smartphones can also relay information to members during group meetings.
End-to-end encryption for all data. AES-256 at rest, TLS 1.3 in transit. Your farm data is never exposed.
Farmers own their data. Export or delete anytime. No lock-in, no hidden data monetization.
Anonymization before any research use. GDPR-compliant processing. Consent-first approach to all data sharing.
Annual audits, strict access controls, documented incident response. Enterprise-grade security for every farmer.
Data stored in-region on AWS Africa (Cape Town) and Nairobi. Your data stays close to home.
Every AI decision is logged, traceable, and explainable. Full transparency on what the agents do and why.
Get Brain running on your farms. Real-time data in, autonomous decisions out — getting smarter every season.
