Australian startup Cropify's AI machine cuts lentil grading time from 45 to 6 minutes with high accuracy.
A new Australian startup, Cropify, has developed an AI-powered machine called Cropify Opal that cuts lentil grading time from up to 45 minutes to just six minutes.
Using high-resolution cameras and cloud-based AI, the device analyzes grain for damage, mold, insects, and foreign seeds to determine quality and price.
Founded in 2019 by farmers Anna Falkiner and Andrew Hannon, the technology was calibrated to match human grading standards after initial tests showed it was stricter.
Initially focused on red lentils, Cropify plans to expand to chickpeas, faba beans, and other grains.
The company raised $2 million in 2024 and is preparing for another funding round as part of Australia’s growing agrifood tech sector, which draws about $800 million annually.
