Value proposition

Generates unlimited, fully annotated synthetic satellite data for remote areas, rare objects, and edge cases — eliminating the bottleneck of costly, scarce, and biased real-world training data for Earth observation AI

Products and solutions

Synthetic Data Engine — AI-powered platform combining generative AI (multimodal diffusion models) and 3D processing to generate unlimited variations of synthetic satellite imagery with pixel-perfect labels, segmentation masks, multispectral capabilities, and consistent temporal data for training Earth observation AI models

Unique value

Combines proprietary generative AI with procedural 3D processing to create synthetic satellite imagery from scratch (not just inserting 3D objects into real imagery), with automatic pixel-perfect labels, multispectral capabilities, and consistent temporal data — enabling AI training where real data is unavailable or cost-prohibitive

Target customer

Geospatial analytics firms, environmental monitoring organizations, mining & raw materials companies, agriculture analytics providers, forestry & conservation organizations, and government agencies needing AI models for Earth observation

Industries served

Environmental Monitoring (deforestation, biodiversity, carbon stock estimation), Mining & Raw Materials, Agriculture, Infrastructure Monitoring, Climate Risk Assessment, Regulatory Compliance (EU Deforestation Regulation)

Technology advantage

Proprietary multimodal diffusion models trained on 1.4M image patches using EuroHPC supercomputing infrastructure (A100/H100 GPUs via AI Factory Austria); fusion of generative AI and 3D processing for synthetic data generation; automatic pixel-perfect labeling and segmentation; multispectral and temporal consistency capabilities; ESA BIC Austria incubation

How they differentiate

Unlike competitors (AI.Reverie/Meta, Rendered.ai, Sensity AI) that focus on general synthetic data or 3D object insertion into real imagery, Another Earth focuses exclusively on Earth Observation and climate resilience, generating fully synthetic satellite imagery from scratch with automatic labeling — addressing the specific bottleneck of training data scarcity in geospatial AI

Main competitors

AI.Reverie (now part of Meta), Rendered.ai, Sensity AI

Key partnerships

AI Factory Austria / EuroHPC (access to supercomputing infrastructure for model training), ESA BIC Austria (business incubation), NovaTerra (Brazil — deforestation monitoring, agricultural analysis), GeoTerra Image / GTI (South Africa — mining environmental impact monitoring)

Notable customers

NovaTerra (Brazil), GeoTerra Image / GTI (South Africa)

Major milestones

Founded 2024, ESA BIC Austria incubation, Access to EuroHPC supercomputing via AI Factory Austria (2025), Commercial deployments with NovaTerra (Brazil) and GeoTerra Image (South Africa), €3.5M Seed round closed March 2026

Market positioning

Early-stage deep-tech startup positioned at the intersection of generative AI, Earth observation, and climate tech; targeting the growing €5.5B+ Earth observation value-added services market by 2031; focused on underserved regions (Brazil, Sub-Saharan Africa) where real training data is scarce

Geographic focus

Global with initial focus on Brazil (Amazon rainforest, Cerrado) and Sub-Saharan Africa (mining, biodiversity); HQ in Vienna, Austria with presence in London, UK
