As of December 2024, startup Avalo is revolutionizing crop breeding with AI, cutting development time by up to 70%. Backed by $6M in seed funding and aiming for a $10M Series A, Avalo’s machine learning platform uses GDIP to slash costs by 100x and boost accuracy. From drought-tolerant cotton to (eventually) edible broccoli, Avalo accelerates four crop cycles annually, helping farmers tackle climate chaos with a smile and smarter seeds.
