Scanabull is transforming the cost of animal weighing using the latest iPhone LIDAR, layered with proprietary AI-powered 3D imaging algorithms. Farmers, vets, and processors can now weigh animals in seconds—accurately, affordably, and without traditional infrastructure.
Inaccurate animal weights cost the industry millions annually, affecting feed decisions, health outcomes, and sale prices. Scanabull solves this with a portable, edge-based system that delivers reliable data instantly, even in remote locations. The technology has been demonstrated to New Zealand meat processors, with strong interest and engagement. Discussions are underway regarding testing, which is planned to commence in Q4 2025, as development work continues.
The global market for livestock weighing exceeds NZ$2B, spanning North America, Europe, Australia, and New Zealand. The current solution is focused on cattle, though Scanabull’s technology is designed to be species-agnostic, with plans to expand to other farm animals such as horses and sheep in the future.
Revenue will come from hardware sales and software subscriptions, with a disruptive price point that is far below the NZ$30K cost of traditional systems. The company’s competitive edge lies in its custom-built AI models, which run offline and are tailored specifically for livestock.
Founder and CEO Dan Bull, leads the team, bringing over 15 years of experience in geospatial analytics and data science. He’s supported by a lean, skilled group of AI and software developers focused on delivering a robust, scalable product.
Scanabull is raising NZ$600K to accelerate product development and execute its go-to-market strategy. Funds will support team expansion, model refinement, and commercial rollout.
