Our story

How SenseAgri AI began.

SenseAgri AI started with a conversation in early 2025. Dylan and Ryan came from different fields — one from data science and biotech, the other from veterinary medicine and animal health — but found they shared a single conviction: that the right data, read the right way, could fundamentally change how farms are run.

They got to work straight away. Dylan brought years of turning complex, messy data into clear technical systems and decisions. Ryan brought deep, hands-on expertise in poultry health and animal science. Those two perspectives became the foundation of the platform — technology that understands not just what is happening inside a house, but why.

Their goal is both simple and ambitious: to give every farmer the kind of insight once reserved for the largest operations. Not another dashboard to check, but a genuine understanding of cause and effect — so decisions are made early, with evidence, and with confidence.
