Aydi, the AI-powered agriculture platform founded by Hassan Fayed, has raised $7.5 million in seed funding from COTU Ventures, Daltex, and Nuwa Capital, with participation from Magrabi Agriculture and Foundation Ventures. The funding will accelerate the global rollout of Orth, an AI agronomy assistant that delivers personalized, real-time insights to help farmers combat rising input costs, climate challenges, and shortages of agronomic expertise.
Orth integrates satellite imaging, weather analytics, and conversational AI to deliver precision recommendations at the plot level, enabling growers to improve crop yields and efficiency by more than 20%. The platform is designed to democratize access to world-class agronomy, transforming decades of agricultural science into accessible digital intelligence.
The funding round reflects strong investor confidence in Aydi’s mission to modernize agriculture through AI. Amir Farha of COTU Ventures, Nitin Reen of Nuwa Capital, and Ibrahim El Naggar of Daltex each emphasized the platform’s potential to bridge the global agronomy gap and bring digital transformation to one of the world’s most essential industries.
Aydi officially launched Orth at Fruit Attraction 2025 in Madrid, offering both free and enterprise tiers. The company plans to scale Orth into a comprehensive AI Operating System for Agriculture, aiming to reach millions of growers worldwide.
