## About

Based in New South Wales, Australia, founded in 2019, BioScout Pty Ltd operates as an internet company that offers advanced technology for the detection and prevention of airborne diseases.

Returning investor Artesian, and Hort Innovation.

BioScout provides a solution for monitoring the spread of airborne illnesses and has been developed by the creator of a unified hardware and software system. Furthermore, the company has created a customized system for agricultural fields that combines air sampling, mapping, and data analytics. Vital information is transmitted to a disease dashboard via strategically placed sensors across the fields, triggering text message alerts for significant threats. This technology enables farmers to optimize crop yield and quality, improve pesticide application efficiency, and easily monitor disease spread.

The company generates revenue by providing AI-powered airborne disease detection and spore monitoring solutions to growers, agronomists, researchers, and agricultural enterprises. Additional revenue is earned through subscriptions to its disease surveillance platform, monitoring services, data analytics, and related agricultural technology solutions.

The company will use the August 2026 funding to support its growth and expansion plans initiatives.
