Hectre has secured 12 million USD to scale its computer vision fruit scanners and launch an AI-driven trading platform. The Auckland-based startup aims for a 1 billion USD valuation by leveraging real-time quality data to rebalance the power dynamic between growers and retailers. By integrating automated sizing directly into a marketplace, Hectre moves the industry from simple crop monitoring to a vertically integrated data ecosystem. This systemic shift toward information symmetry allows producers to capture higher value through transparent, data-backed price discovery. 🍎
