Dayatani Digital Pte Ltd

DayaTani is an agritech company founded in 2023 with headquarters in Singapore and operations in Indonesia. The company provides technology-based solutions aimed at increasing smallholder farm yields. Its agricultural platform incorporates tools for soil health assessment, weather prediction, and plant disease diagnosis, centered around an AI-powered chatbot named Pak Dayat that farmers can access via its application or WhatsApp. While the company focuses on digital innovation, it maintains a commercial seed business, supplying high-quality seeds such as watermelon and potato tubers to farmers and traders to generate sustainable revenue and fund its long-term technical development.

The firm's model is designed to support the economic well-being and productivity of farmers, currently serving thousands of users in regions like West Java. By leveraging the revenue from its seed distribution, DayaTani seeks to democratize its technological tools, eventually aiming to provide advanced agricultural insights to millions of smallholders. The company has secured significant seed funding, including a $2.3 million round in early 2024, to scale its R&D sites and expand its reach. Through ongoing research and strategic partnerships with NGOs and potential government entities, DayaTani works to bridge the gap between traditional farming practices and modern digital solutions to improve overall crop yields.
