What Terra Labs does

Terra Labs AB is a Stockholm-based private software company founded in 2023 by Peder Stahle and Adam von Corswant that develops an AI-powered earth intelligence platform combining satellite imagery with artificial intelligence to monitor and analyze forestry and land assets. The company's core product, Forest Intelligence, ingests Earth observation data and applies computer vision, predictive analytics, and process automation to deliver forest inventory outputs (species identification, volume estimation, growth-rate tracking), thinning recommendations, change detection across time, and — by the company's claim — fully digital forest management plans that match the quality of human-made plans, described as an industry first.

The technology stack combines proprietary AI models with high-resolution satellite imagery sourced from an exclusive reseller agreement with Airbus Defense and Space in Sweden (signed October 2025). Outputs are delivered through web interfaces and APIs under an annual SaaS subscription model with Order-Form-based pricing; the Airbus imagery is also resold on demand to customers as a transaction-fee revenue stream.

Go-to-market is enterprise-direct sales targeting large organizations, complemented by the Airbus channel in Sweden. The customer base is anchored by two major Swedish forestry cooperatives — Södra (2.8 million hectares) and Mellanskog (1.7 million hectares) — with stated expansion intent into Banking (collateral monitoring), Insurance (risk assessment), and Government (land-use enforcement). As of the latest disclosed point the company had 1-10 employees and had raised approximately €4.5M in total funding (a SEK 6M pre-seed from Cofounded Kapital in 2023 followed by a €4M seed round led by Norrsken VC in March 2024).

Scale indicators2 records

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights5 records

Broad incumbents

• Trimble: Established provider of geospatial and forestry management software with broad enterprise and government reach. Comparable as a forestry software incumbent, though Trimble's product portfolio is much wider and its forestry tools are not AI-native satellite analytics platforms like Terra Labs.
• Planet Labs: Large satellite operator with daily global imagery and a growing analytics layer serving forestry, agriculture, defense, and government. Comparable through overlapping imagery supply and analytics, but operates at vastly larger scale and competes as both a data provider and an emerging analytics platform.
• Esri: Dominant GIS and spatial analytics platform widely used in forestry, environmental, and land management organizations. Comparable as foundational tooling for forestry geospatial work, but operates as a horizontal GIS platform rather than a verticalized AI satellite analytics product.
• Maxar Technologies: High-resolution satellite imagery provider with deep relationships across defense, intelligence, and commercial markets including forestry. Comparable through the satellite data supply side that Terra Labs also depends on (via Airbus), and increasingly through Maxar's own analytics offerings.

Direct peers

• Orbital Insight: Satellite imagery and AI analytics company that turns geospatial data into insights for industries including forestry, agriculture, energy, and financial services. Closely mirrors Terra Labs' model of layered AI analytics on top of third-party satellite constellations for enterprise customers.
• Descartes Labs: Geospatial AI analytics platform that ingests satellite imagery at scale and applies machine learning to deliver insights across agriculture, forestry, and commodities. Directly comparable to Terra Labs on technology stack, AI-first analytics, and enterprise B2B delivery, though it serves a broader set of verticals.
• Sentinel Hub (Sinergise): Earth observation analytics platform offering ready-to-use APIs and processing pipelines for satellite imagery, frequently used in forestry, agriculture, and environmental monitoring. Directly comparable as a developer-facing geospatial platform that enables AI-derived insights from multi-source imagery.
• SkyWatch: Satellite imagery distribution and analytics platform providing API-based access to multiple earth observation data sources for enterprise and developer customers. Comparable business model around bundled satellite data and analytics, with a similar channel focus on reselling third-party imagery.

Emerging players

• Picterra: Geospatial AI platform that enables organizations to train and deploy machine learning models on satellite and aerial imagery for land monitoring. Comparable AI-first approach to forestry and land-use analytics, though positioned more as a horizontal ML tooling layer than a verticalized SaaS product.

Regional players

• Tietoevry (Silvia forestry platform): Nordic IT services and software provider whose forestry management platform (Silvia) serves Swedish and other Scandinavian forest owners. Directly comparable as a regional forestry software incumbent competing for the same Swedish cooperative customers (Södra, Mellanskog) that Terra Labs serves.
