Aquaculture Technology Investments: Enhancing Efficiency and Innovation

 

MacLab, through its associated entities, is excited to announce seed investments in two pioneering technology ventures aimed at advancing productivity and innovation in the aquaculture sector. MacLab is working closely with both companies in the development of their products and looks forward to becoming a customer integrating their products and services into our mussel farming operations, enhancing sustainable growth.

Seaweave

A spin-off from SnapCore Group, Seaweave is pioneering an AI-powered monitoring and automation system designed for aquaculture and seafood processing. This advanced system integrates cameras, sensors, and AI to provide real-time data, empowering farm managers to optimize operations, boost productivity, and improve traceability. Seaweave’s actionable insights equip aquaculture enterprises with tools to refine and enhance farm performance.

Harvest Hub

A cutting-edge initiative from AI studio NAI, Harvest Hub is developing an innovative, mobile-based tool specifically for the mussel farming industry. Leveraging mobile technology and artificial intelligence, this tool enables mussel farmers and processors to monitor and assess key mussel attributes more efficiently, supporting data-driven harvest decisions that can increase crop yields and revenue.

MacLab is thrilled about the potential of these ventures to drive significant advancement in aquaculture farming, promoting greater efficiency, productivity, and sustainability across the industry.
