AI for agriculture
Make your farming business smarter.
Pluginfarm brings AI, sensors and smart technology together in one smart core. Swappable plug-in modules let you adapt the system to the job at hand. The result is one versatile system that grows with your farming business.

The idea
AI as a practical tool for the farming business
Farming businesses hold a wealth of knowledge, experience, data and technology. But that information is often scattered, and decisions still lean on experience or come after the fact. Pluginfarm brings data, sensors, AI and smart technology together. That gives you insight into what is happening, and lets you act on it in a targeted way.
You don't have to replace everything. Make smarter use of what you already have.
- 01
It all starts with data
There is plenty of information on a farm. Pluginfarm brings together data from sensors, systems and other sources.
- 02
AI turns it into insight
AI recognises patterns, connections and changes. That gives you a clearer view of what is happening and what needs attention.
- 03
From insight to action
Pluginfarm can do more than advise: it can also drive systems. That turns data into practical action, right when it is needed.
How it works
One smart core. Extendable for every application.
Pluginfarm is built around one fixed, smart core that forms the basis of every application. With different expansion modules you add exactly the functionality a job needs. That makes it one flexible, universal concept with broad use across the farming business.
Local AI. Runs on its own.
Pluginfarm is a self-contained AI system with its own network. The core processes camera and sensor data locally, and can provide insight and drive systems directly. A 4G link connects it to our servers, without depending on the existing infrastructure on site.
- Computer vision and AI running on the machine
- Designed for continuous use in the field and the greenhouse
- The same core for every application
- Software & hardware — developed entirely in house
Add exactly what the job needs
Every task gets its own module: switching, steering, measuring or precise tool control. The core stays the same; the module makes the difference.
- Connects to the core through a standard interface
- Developed and tested for each application
- Custom solutions without redesigning the whole system
Why modular?
Smart doesn't have to mean complicated.
Reusable
One proven core across many applications. No reinventing the wheel for every machine.
Flexible
Modules adapt to your machine and your task, not the other way around.
Future-proof
A new application means a new module, not a new system. That keeps costs under control.
From local data to ever smarter AI
The local Pluginfarm core collects data from daily practice. That data comes together in the Pluginfarm Cloud, where we analyse results, develop AI models further and manage systems centrally. Improvements then flow back to the local systems.
- Data from daily farming practice
- AI models that are continuously improved
- Central insight, management and development
- Our own web environment for AI insight and training

Partnership
From idea to solution, together
Pluginfarm is developed together with ITBoeren. Hands-on knowledge of the agricultural sector is combined with expertise in AI, hardware and software.
Together we develop, test and improve the concept. That creates technology born out of daily practice and technically ready for the future.
