Applied AI for land, soil and water
rurtech.ai builds AI that reads satellites, soil records, photos and voice, then turns them into decisions people can act on. Agriculture is our first platform. Soil health and ending blanket urea are our first priority.

Enter the world of rurtech.ai
Satellites see land, water, crops, buildings and ships every few days. We build the models that turn those pictures into answers. Agriculture is where we started. The same engine works wherever a decision depends on what is happening on the ground.
Live aircraft positions from ADS-B on satellite imagery, and orbit and pass prediction for mission planning.
Parcel-level evidence of crops, soil moisture and land use over time, to support lending decisions.
Crop condition by date for a drawn parcel, with flood and fire layers, to support underwriting and claims review.
A decade of archived imagery to track construction, audit encroachment and check how land has changed.
Flood and hazard mapping from Sentinel-1 radar, which sees through cloud, with live fire detections and village search.
Groundwater prospects and quality, depth to water and pond volumes.
AI weather on a 3D globe, carbon dioxide and methane plumes from NASA EMIT, and daily global satellite views.
Plantation site checks and canopy views over any drawn area, and vessel detection from Sentinel-1 radar.
Every picture is a screen of our own tool, or a Sentinel-1 or Sentinel-2 image.
Our first priority · powered by rurtech.ai
A flat urea dose treats a whole field the same, and no field is the same. RurSat reads the soil, maps the field and sends a dose for each patch.
A lab value always comes first. 12.6 million government soil lab tests are indexed across 33 states. Where no test exists, the 12-parameter soil card is marked as an estimate.
Satellite zones inside the real field boundary, so weak and strong patches are seen apart.
Urea, DAP and MOP for each zone on WhatsApp, in Hindi, with when to apply.
The zone map moves urea from strong patches to weak ones. Half-zone, half-flat strips with crop cuts measure what can be cut.

GLOSOLAN runs under the Global Soil Partnership of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations and works to harmonise soil laboratory measurements.
The AI underneath
Every answer is grounded on field data, not free text. Where a lab value exists, the lab value wins.
Member of NVIDIA Inception since 23 April 2026. Inception Capital Connect access approved 24 April 2026. The models run under our own NVIDIA NGC enterprise organisation, RurTech For Arayans LLP.
Served through NVIDIA NIM. They reason through a farmer’s question and decide which tools to call.
AI weather forecasts feed our crop and pest pipeline through a public forecast service. We have also run the model ourselves: 120 hours over India in 14 seconds on one RTX GPU.
Find the right passage in our agronomy knowledge before an answer is written.
Read field video frame by frame for pest checks.
Text to speech in Hindi and English.
Soil and groundwater models are trained on NVIDIA GPUs with PyTorch and CUDA.
Speed up heavy imagery and map jobs on a GPU worker we start when the work needs it.
Wind, spray drift and runoff on a field, modelled on NVIDIA’s digital-twin blueprint for fluid simulation. Our own solver, running in the browser.
Plan, call tools and answer from field data.
Whisper and other speech models: voice notes in and voice replies out, in Hindi and other Indian languages.
YOLO detection and SAM segmentation: pest photos, animal detection, field boundaries and vehicle handover checks.
Surface soil minerals from NASA EMIT, and lab-spectra screening models.
Crop vigour and moisture from Sentinel-1, Sentinel-2 and Landsat, with gradient-boosted models on top.
A soil lab PDF in, a Soil Health Card out.
