Who it is for

What a head start
buys you.

Procurement, agronomy and quality each turn that head start into a different decision. Finches works on the origins you buy from, whether you deal with those farms directly or buy through traders and processors.

Procurement
Decide whether to make or buy while there is still a market to buy from.
  • Spot a short harvest while you can still steer contracted volume
  • Weeks of lead time before the market prices it in
  • Every alert comes with the evidence behind it
What it is worthOne purchasing director buys on the spot market before the rest of the market knows a crop is tight. His own estimate of what that saves him: about 25 percent.
Agronomy
Act while the crop is still growing, when sowing, harvest pace and the pack plan can still change.
  • Disease and weather risk per region, with the research behind it
  • Rules you write yourself, from what has gone wrong before
  • Field visits recorded offline, the write-up done on the drive back
What it is worthSowing two weeks earlier, agreed with the growers, and three to four hours saved on every farm visit.
Quality
Put your testing where the risk sits, and see lots drift before the lab confirms it.
  • Limits watched per crop, origin and spec
  • Sampling aimed at the fields carrying the risk
  • Your own lab results read alongside public signals
What it is worthA customer running Finches expects to take five to ten percent off an annual analysis budget.

Risk alerts matched to your sourcing regions and farms

A frost in week 12 means something different for spinach than for almonds. Our agentic system reads every signal against your crops and varieties, then tells you where to act and what to do.

A mobile app to capture ground truth
