SENSEEN

What SENSEEN does

SENSEEN is a French AgriTech company founded in 2020 and headquartered in Valbonne, France, that builds compact near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy hardware combined with proprietary AI to perform non-destructive plant sap analysis directly in the field. Its flagship product, the Nutriscope, is a handheld scanner operating in the 900–1700nm range that clips onto a plant leaf and, in a single scan, measures 16 essential minerals and trace elements alongside pH, Redox potential, electrical conductivity, Brix, chlorophyll, and a stress index — outputs that traditionally required slow, destructive laboratory analyses. The device is paired with the Senseen mobile application for real-time measurement launch and viewing, the Senseen Portal (portail.senseen.io) for measurement history, statistics, dashboards, trend visualization, and data export, and SAVIA (Sap Analysis & Vegetation Intelligence by AI), which interprets raw spectral readings into actionable agronomic recommendations by reasoning about mineral balance as an integrated system rather than individual nutrients. Additional product lines include the Nutriscope XL (launched September 2025, with a rotating sample tray for analyzing heterogeneous materials such as soils, forages, and turfgrass) and the in-calibration Senseen Pencil, a lower-cost 44-light-point scanner aimed at food quality and plastic-recycling applications.

SENSEEN sells the scanner hardware as a one-time purchase through its direct e-commerce store and supplements it with two recurring annual subscriptions: the annual mineral subscription (required to access the Decision Support Tool and mineral measurement features) and the annual portal subscription (required for full data-portal access). Pricing is not publicly disclosed and appears quote-based. The primary customer segment is farmers and viticulturists; secondary segments include agricultural advisors and technical consultants (technico-commerciaux), sports turf managers (golf courses, stadiums, hippodromes) via the Bluegreen partnership, cannabis producers in Canada via Greentone, and forage/soil operations in West Africa via the URBANE European project. The company sells through its own e-commerce channel, agricultural trade-show demonstrations (Salon de l'Agriculture, SITEVI, SIVAL, Tech & Bio, European Agritech Show, Groundswell, Vi-TIC, LFDAY, medFEL), and an international partner network.

Recent strategic activity indicates a scaling posture: V1.5 metamodel release (December 2025) added 1,000+ laboratory measurements, extended mineral coverage to tomato and potato, and added Boron, Manganese, and Sodium to the measured parameter set; SAVIA was integrated into the product ecosystem in 2026 alongside a March 2026 Field Notebook feature; geographic expansion to China was secured via Vispek (October 2025) and to Canada via Greentone (March 2025); and the company is hiring a Commercial & Marketing Director alongside a Data Scientist and an Eastern/Southern France technico-commercial. Scientific credibility is anchored in co-authored publications with CIRAD researcher Olivier Husson (ISHS) on Redox measurement in vines.
