Our story
GrowBotiq is the result of about two years of research and development across plant science, software, computer vision and hardware-software integration.
Around 200 beta growers, from experienced home growers to medium and large operations, shaped the trichome workflow and the cultivation tools you see in the app today. Along the way we have collaborated with universities and cannabis companies.

The idea
Growers still judged harvest by eye, with a loupe. We started building a trichome dataset and training the first models.
2025
First AI detection
Transparent, cloudy and amber, classified automatically. Then we moved everything on-device.
Early 2026
Beta with growers
Around 200 growers, universities and cannabis companies shaped the app.

For business
We work with cultivation facilities, extraction labs and cannabis brands. From pilots to tools built around your workflow.
Collaborations
Joint projects, pilots in your facility and data partnerships.
Custom solutions
Features, models and reports built for your strains, rooms and processes.
Research
Studies with universities and labs on trichomes and harvest quality.
Vision
We want GrowBotiq to be the point of reference for cannabis cultivation: the tool every grower opens before making a decision.
Today a photo tells you when to harvest. Together with universities and labs, we are studying how much more a single image of the trichomes can reveal about what’s inside the flower.
GrowBotiq doesn’t replace lab testing. It adds data you can collect every day, without destroying a single flower.
Research collaborations, professional pilots, or just feedback from your grow room. We read every message.
