Farmspace

What Farmspace does

Farmspace Systems LLC is a veteran-owned unmanned aerial systems (UAS) services company headquartered in Alamo, Tennessee, founded in 2014. The company provides drone-based solutions with a primary focus on precision agriculture, supplemented by services to first responders, government agencies, and educational institutions across the Midsouth United States. Leadership is drawn from retired military officers, including LtGen John Castellaw (CEO) and Capt Derick Seaton (EVP), which supports the company's positioning with federal and defense-adjacent buyers.

The company's core technical capabilities span multispectral imaging for crop analysis, FAA-authorized agricultural UAS spraying using the DJI Agras T-30 platform (authorized under Part 137 in December 2022), and the COVID Finder AI-based virus detection portal developed in partnership with the Department of Homeland Security and League of Your Own, LLC. Farmspace sells DJI drone hardware, provides contract flight services, offers support and maintenance, and delivers training. The COVID Finder asset is built on US Patent 10346446 (Multi-Source Analyst Ready Information), which is held by the partner rather than Farmspace itself, and the company collaborates with third-party satellite providers for AI-driven analytics.

Farmspace's business model is diversified across hardware resale, service contracts, training fees, and project-based engagements, with quote-based rather than standardized pricing. The company serves a regional customer base spanning Alabama to Texas, with no disclosed anchor enterprise customers and no publicly reported revenue. Operational scale is small (1-10 employees) and growth indicators are limited, positioning Farmspace as a regional integrator and reseller with selective government-vertical exposure rather than a scaled platform business.
