Compatible with most agricultural machinery, CultiWise offers cloud-based, AI-driven data analysis and a flexible pay-as-you-go pricing model. It’s a comprehensive solution for modern farmers seeking to optimize their operations with advanced technology.
While owning a drone gives you the flexibility to capture data whenever needed, it is not required to use CultiWise. We provide comprehensive drone hardware support and training for our clients. However, you prefer not to operate a drone yourself. In that case, you can still use satellite data or data captured by third-party drone services in the CultiWise platform.
Yes, data security is a top priority for us. We employ robust encryption and security protocols to ensure your data remains confidential and secure from upload to analysis.
CultiWise is compatible with RGB and multispectral camera data. Both types of data can be uploaded simultaneously for comprehensive analysis.
After flying your drone over the field, upload the raw imagery to the CultiWise platform. Our cloud-based system will stitch the images together, creating an orthophoto map. Using this map, CultiWise generates a prescription map targeting only the weed-infested areas for treatment.
Absolutely. CultiWise is compatible with all types of agricultural machinery. You can specify your machinery, and CultiWise will generate the appropriate application map.
Our vision is to empower farmers with an easy-to-use, cloud-based solution for variable rate and targeted chemical applications, helping them comply with upcoming pesticide regulations and optimize their use of resources. With over seven years of research and practical experience, we’re dedicated to advancing remote sensing and targeted pesticide application technology in agriculture.
CultiWise combines data from multiple sources to help farmers make informed decisions. By using our platform, you can expect:

We recommend flying the drone in midday conditions to minimize shadow effects for optimal results. However, CultiWise’s advanced algorithms can handle various lighting conditions to ensure you get reliable data whenever you fly. The general recommendation is to capture the data within one hour after the sunrise and one hour before the sunset.
Getting started is simple:
- Sign up for a CultiWise account.
- If you have a drone, capture imagery of your field.
- Upload your data to the CultiWise platform.
- Receive your detailed analysis and prescription maps directly through the platform.

The Starter features are free and include unlimited access to Basic satellite, Generic Zoning, Soil Samples, and Draw Prescription. With this package, farmers can create unlimited application maps based on the data provided by Starter features.
The Satellite Pro package is a yearly subscription service that gives you access to high-precision satellite imagery and yields potential maps. With the Satellite Pro features, you can create unlimited application maps based on the Premium Satellite and Yield Potential data.
The Satellite Pro features can also be bought independently.
The Drone Pro package includes advanced drone data orthomosaic processing. The subsequent features of green-on-brown spot spraying, green-on-green spot spraying, and plant and weed counting are based on cloud-processed data. This service is billed per hectare, per data upload, at 5 €/ha for Orthomosaic Processing and 3 €/ha for each spot spraying or plant counting service.
No, there is no limit to the number of application maps you can create. However, each map generation is billed per hectare of the uploaded data.
Yes, the Satellite Pro package includes all the features of the Starter package plus Satellite Pro features. You can still use the Starter features if you subscribe to the Satellite Pro package.
You can upgrade from the Starter to the Satellite Pro package anytime to optimize your operations further.
Suppose you exceed the Drone Pro package’s 100GB free storage limit. In that case, you will be billed according to the following storage tier:
- 101GB – 500GB: €15/month or €150/year
- 501GB – 1TB: €29/month or €299/year
- Remember, these costs are for storage only and are in addition to the per-hectare processing costs of the Drone Pro package.
No, the Drone Pro package is not a yearly subscription. It is a pay-per-use service where you are charged based on the area (per hectare) of the data uploaded for processing.
You can calculate your expected costs by multiplying the area you need to process by the per-hectare rate for each service. For storage costs, estimate the data you’ll store and add the respective storage fee if it exceeds 100GB.
