Calice

Calice is tackling global food security by equipping agriculture with advanced predictive tools. Its flagship product, NODES™, integrates comprehensive crop data to predict and improve yield, quality and adaptability across changing environmental conditions.

Traditional seed breeding programs take up to ten years and rely on trial and error, or on basic statistical tools built around the knowledge of a handful of lead breeders. NODES™ replaces that with a data-driven approach that cuts both the time and the cost of a breeding program, and unlocks new value in seed material companies already own.

Early adopters — from independent breeders to multinational seed companies — are already working with the technology. Founded by Ramiro Olivera, Esteban Hernando and Pablo Romero in Buenos Aires, Calice is rebuilding one of agriculture's slowest processes around prediction instead of trial and error.
