What Agxio does

Agxio is a UK-based AI and data science company founded in 2018 that develops specialized machine learning, IoT analytics, and computer vision platforms for the agriculture, biotech, and life sciences sectors. Its product portfolio spans eight proprietary systems — Apollo (generative explainable AI), Mercury (IoT sensor analytics), Ceres (controlled environment automation), GALEN (microbiome sequencing analytics), Centaur (advanced Gen-AI with behavioural science), Zeus (disease monitoring), Chiron (parasitology image and video classification), and an underlying Low-Code Stack platform — which are deployed across traditional farming, vertical and controlled environment agriculture, microbiome research, and medical imaging applications. Documented technical benchmarks include up to 83% multilabel accuracy and 0.96 ROC AUC on brain tumor MRI classification, automated parasite egg quantification from video, and real-time environmental anomaly detection.

The company operates a B2B enterprise model with custom quote-based pricing. Revenue mechanics combine subscription or recurring licensing of its AI platforms, ongoing sensor network analytics services, and professional services for deployment and integration. Customer segments span government-backed programs (notably Farming Connect's 18 demonstration farms across Wales), academic and medical research institutions, agricultural businesses, vertical farming operators (Menter Môn Tech Tyfu), and technology integration partners (Digital Farming, Techion, Oxford Nanopore). Distribution relies on direct enterprise sales, strategic partnerships, and the company's certified service provider status with Oxford Nanopore Technologies. Agxio maintains development operations at the Aberystwyth Innovation and Enterprise Campus in Wales and a research hub at Cambridge Science Park, and has raised approximately £2.85 million across a £750K seed round in June 2020 and a £2.1M Pre-Series A round in March 2022, with backing from Welsh Government and Development Bank of Wales.

Core offering

Agxio develops and licenses a suite of proprietary AI and machine learning platforms that combine generative AI, explainable AI (XAI), deep learning, and IoT sensor analytics to serve the agriculture, biotech, and life sciences industries. Core offerings include the Apollo generative explainable intelligence platform, Mercury IoT analytics platform, Ceres controlled-environment automation, GALEN microbiome analytics, Centaur advanced Gen-AI, Chiron parasitology image/video classification, and the underlying Low-Code Stack deployment architecture. The company also delivers professional services for deployment and integration.

Product overview

Agxio offers a suite of eight specialized AI/ML products organized around a unified Low-Code Stack platform. The core portfolio includes Apollo (Generative AI and explainable intelligence), Ceres (automated environment control), Mercury (IoT sensor analytics), GALEN (microbiome sequencing analytics), Centaur (advanced Gen-AI with behavioral science), Zeus (disease monitoring and prediction), and Chiron (automated image/video classification). The Low-Code Stack serves as the foundational architecture enabling rapid deployment across agricultural biotech, life sciences, controlled environment agriculture, and medical imaging applications. The platform targets mission-critical systems in finance, science, and sustainable infrastructure.

Products and services

• Apollo Accelerated Generative eXplainable Intelligence (AI/Machine Learning) platform that operates beyond-human-scale performance. Apollo evaluates critical data and produces predictive models to solve real-world problems including multilabel brain tumour MRI classification, and enables robotic platforms to run machine learning models for big data analytics across agriculture and life sciences.
• Mercury IIoT connectivity and applied machine learning platform that ingests sensor data and provides real-time monitoring and analytics for traditional farming and controlled environment agriculture. Mercury creates intelligent solutions for problems such as water quality, soil health, and environmental condition monitoring within minutes.
• Ceres Automated environment platform providing command and control for optimal growing conditions in controlled environment agriculture including vertical farms, grow rooms, and hydroponic facilities. Ceres automates monitoring and control of temperature, light, humidity, and nutrient availability.
• GALEN Microbiome sequencing analytics engine using automated, rules-based analysis of biomarkers against pre-determined target ranges. Identifies potential disease factors and indicates preventative or corrective nutritional measures for re-balancing microbiomes in human, animal, and equine health applications.
• Centaur Advanced AI platform combining SLM and LLM generative AI with behavioural science and automated ML. Empowers producers to make real-time decisions and take sustainable action to protect and maximise yields through edge technologies, sensors, and big data.
• Chiron Automated image and video classification software with built-in pre-determined models and configurable parameters. Automatically identifies and quantifies parasite eggs and indexes parasite motility by detecting movement between video frames, automating the gold standard faecal egg counting technique.
• Zeus Platform technology for advanced AI applications in disease monitoring, analytics, and prediction across agriculture, animal health, and human health domains.
