Cropin, the world’s largest deployed AI platform for food and agriculture, today announced OrbitAI, a breakthrough agentic AI platform built on Google’s AI infrastructure that brings autonomous decision-making to the global food systems. Trained on the complex, real-world interactions between crops, climate, weather, soil, geography, agronomic practices, and global supply chains, rather than generic internet data, OrbitAI ushers in a new era of intelligent agriculture.
OrbitAI brings together a network of specialized AI agents designed to support decisions across the food value chain. Whether used by a sourcing manager in Singapore or a farmer in Karnataka, the platform delivers region-specific, actionable recommendations in natural language, grounded in verified agricultural intelligence and real-world conditions.
Example: A sourcing manager asks “What is my soybean supply risk in Maharashtra over the next 90 days?” OrbitAI responds in under 30 seconds. Risk level HIGH, 12-15% projected shortfall driven by moisture deficit, with a clear recommendation to start buffer procurement from Madhya Pradesh Week 3.
A potato farmer in Gansu, China asks: “Is my crop healthy this week? OrbitAI responds: Disease Risk: HIGH. Humidity and temperature conditions over the next 5 days are near-perfect for a late blight outbreak. Spray within 48 hours using Cymoxanil-Mancozeb.
“AI has transformed how the world accesses information. The next transformation is how the world makes decisions about food. OrbitAI is not another chatbot. It pairs Google Cloud’s AI infrastructure with Cropin’s proprietary predictive models, trained on fifteen years of ground-truth data, to predict outcomes before they happen. We keep the complexity behind the scenes; stakeholders simply enjoy the outcome: decades of progress in months.” Krishna Kumar, Founder & CEO, Cropin.
“The next transformation in AI is moving away from technology demonstrations and focusing on measurable outcomes, specifically addressing the core challenge of ‘cost to serve’ versus ‘capacity to serve.’ By building on Google Cloud’s AI infrastructure, OrbitAI allows organizations to deploy agentic workflows that scale capacity exponentially, tackling complex real-world challenges with unprecedented pace and efficiency.” Sashikumar Sreedharan, Managing Director, Google Cloud India.
Built on Google’s AI Infrastructure
OrbitAI is developed on Google’s next-generation AI ecosystem, leveraging Gemini Models for foundation AI reasoning, the Agent Development Kit for autonomous agent orchestration, Gemini Enterprise Agent Platform for scalable model training and inference, BigQuery for planetary-scale agricultural data analytics, Google Cloud for global real-time deployment, and WeatherNext for next-generation climate and weather intelligence enabling OrbitAI to reason across vast agricultural, climatic, and geospatial datasets in real time.
Open by Design: OrbitAI as an MCP Server
OrbitAI is built on an open intelligence architecture. Beyond its native interface and being built on Google Cloud stack, it is available as a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server, enabling its agricultural intelligence layer to be accessed by frontier AI models and open-source AI systems. Enterprises, developers, and AI platforms can directly integrate OrbitAI’s crop intelligence, climate signals, geospatial data, and agronomic knowledge graph into their existing AI workflows. Whether powered by Claude, GPT, Llama, Mistral, or proprietary enterprise AI systems, OrbitAI’s intelligence can be accessed as a native tool call.
Democratising AI for Agriculture
At the heart of Cropin’s vision is ensuring that every participant in the food system, regardless of geography, scale, or technical expertise has access to expert-grade agricultural intelligence through natural language. From a sourcing manager in London and a sustainability officer in São Paulo to a trader in Singapore, a banker in New York, and a smallholder farmer in rural India, OrbitAI democratizes access to trusted intelligence and decision support. Food and agriculture support the livelihoods of more than a billion people, yet many critical decisions continue to be constrained by historical, fragmented information and delayed insights. OrbitAI bridges the gap between data and decisions, bringing autonomous intelligence to the food and agriculture industry at a time when it is needed most.
