About FarmD
Our mission is to empower farmers worldwide with accessible, intelligent technology.
Our Story
FarmD was born from a simple observation: the people who feed the planet have less access to smart technology than a single offshore platform control room. While agriculture is one of humanity's oldest and most essential practices, technological innovations often fail to reach those who need them most — the farmers.
A farmer in Karnataka shouldn't need a smartphone, an English vocabulary, or a data science degree to make better decisions about their own land. Founded in 2020, FarmD set out to change this by building an AI-powered platform that speaks multiple languages, works without a smartphone, and puts precision agriculture in the hands of the people who need it most.
From a single-acre family plot to a thousand-farm enterprise, FarmD is designed to adapt. Because smart farming shouldn't be a luxury — it should be a right.
Our Values
These core principles guide everything we do at FarmD.
Accessibility
Agricultural technology should be accessible to all farmers, regardless of their technical expertise or resources.
Sustainability
We are committed to promoting sustainable farming practices that preserve natural resources for future generations.
Innovation
We constantly explore new technologies and approaches to solve the most pressing challenges in agriculture.
Inclusivity
We embrace diversity in language, culture, and farming practices to create solutions that work for everyone.
The Founder
Saurabh Singhvi
Founder
An IIT Bombay engineer who spent 17 years designing oil refineries and gas processing plants across Norway, the UAE, and India — and somehow ended up building AI for farmers. Life is strange like that.
After nearly a decade of solving billion-dollar problems for the world's largest energy companies, Saurabh noticed something uncomfortable: the people who actually feed the planet have less access to smart technology than a single offshore platform control room. A farmer in Karnataka shouldn't need a smartphone, an English vocabulary, or a data science degree to make better decisions about their own land.
So he built FarmD — an AI-powered platform that speaks multiple languages, works without a smartphone, and puts precision agriculture in the hands of the people who need it most. From a single-acre family plot to a thousand-farm enterprise, FarmD adapts. Because smart farming shouldn't be a luxury.
Saurabh also runs Ignis Engineering and its flagship product Katalysis AI, an AI platform transforming industrial engineering. Turns out the instinct is always the same — find the people doing critical work with outdated tools, and give them something better.
Engineer by training. Farmer's ally by choice. Builder of things that actually work.
