Auravant Review

• Satellite monitoring with vegetation indices (NDVI, GNDVI, MSAVI2, NDRE, NDWI and Visible) to spot anomalies, prioritise scouting and assess establishment, irrigation and re-fertilisation. The saving: fewer unproductive visits and more precise input use. The platform also offers high-definition (HD) satellite imagery at up to ten times the resolution of standard images, refreshed as often as every two days.
• Zoning and prescriptions with multiple layers and histograms, aimed at zone-based management and dose optimisation. The saving: less over-application and less within-field variability.
• Agronomic records and work orders with operational tracking and evidence from the field. The saving: less friction in coordination and traceability.
• Collaboration with differentiated permissions for sharing farms, fields and seasons securely. The saving: fewer information silos. It also has communication channels and internal chat for exchanging observations and assigning tasks between team members without leaving the platform.
• Extensions and API to connect machinery, sensors and systems (ERPs and OEM portals). The saving: no manual loading and no re-entry errors. Among the available extensions is the digital Field Notebook, free to use, which records every activity involving crop-protection products and makes audits and certifications easier to satisfy.
• Business operations management covering stock and silo tracking, season planning, yield estimation, people and machinery management, and input datasheets. The benefit: it concentrates the operational and financial picture in one place, reducing reliance on outside tools.
• Gross-margin dashboard: a newer module that shows the business's financial result on a single screen. It covers gross margin at field or zone level, crop distribution by farm, profitability per crop, comparative historical gross margin, distribution of operation costs and costs per zone. It requires zoning and yield layers to be linked to the recorded operations and rotations.
• Map Editor: a GIS interface with tools to paint zones, overlay layers and edit full screen. Average dose, total dose and associated costs are visible directly on the map.
• Bulk importer: loads operations and rotations in bulk, cutting entry time and making it easier to manage large volumes centrally.
• Rebuilt operations log: a table-style interface, advanced filters and organisation by category in separate windows, to speed up entry and tracking.
• New space administration panel: a panel for administrators only, centralising the management of users and the products available within the corporate space.

AI Functions

Auravant's artificial intelligence is applied mainly to processing satellite imagery, analysing agronomic data and generating intelligent maps. The company's own algorithms turn large volumes of geospatial and field information into visual indicators and prescriptions that support decisions.

Its main capabilities include:

• Multispectral analysis: automated processing of satellite imagery (NDVI, GNDVI and others) to identify variation in crop growth, vigour and condition.
• Intelligent zoning: automated classification of productive zones from time series and vegetation indices, which makes it easier to plan operations and optimise input use.
• Assisted prescriptions: variable-rate application maps that adjust fertiliser or seeding rates to within-field variability.
• Predictive and correlative models: historical, georeferenced data used to anticipate water or nutritional stress and suggest priority areas for scouting.
• Bioinformatics integration (Biome4all): through this extension the AI interprets soil genetic data — carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus, microbiota and so on — and translates it into visual layers that complement conventional agronomic analysis.
• Continuous learning: the algorithms update with information from new fields and seasons, improving zoning accuracy over time.

Unlike generative assistants, Auravant's AI does not depend on natural-language prompts but on quantitative analysis of satellite series, geospatial layers and agronomic databases. Its purpose is not to produce text but to produce applicable agronomic knowledge, guiding decisions on sowing, fertilisation, monitoring and soil management against objective criteria.

For agricultural SMEs, these functions save time on scouting, reduce input use and improve yield per hectare, while adding traceability and evidence to every season.

Integrations

Auravant offers extensions to sync the account with machinery, sensors and management systems, plus a developer portal with a public API. It is compatible with Trimble monitors for running prescriptions exported as Shapefiles, and integrates with OEM portals such as John Deere Operations Center and Case IH AFS Connect, as well as regional ERPs like Finnegans.

In Latin America it is common to share work orders by link and coordinate execution over WhatsApp within the operational flow itself. More recently a Cool Farm integration was added, which measures carbon and water footprint per field and brings environmental value into the production analysis without entering the same information twice.

Data Security and Compliance

Auravant states that it holds ISO/IEC 27001:2013 certification for its Information Security Management System (certificate no. 74 250 0124). It complies with the data protection laws applicable in the countries where it operates: Law 25.326 (Argentina), the GDPR (EU 679/2016), Law 13.709/18 LGPD (Brazil) and Law 18.831 (Uruguay), as well as Organic Law 3/2018 (Spain).

Data ownership rests with the user or with the company that owns the "Space" on the platform. Auravant states explicitly that it does not sell user data or share it with third parties without consent, and that it uses it only to deliver the service under its Terms and Conditions, Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy.

Personal data is stored on servers in the United States, the European Union and/or Argentina, protected by security systems that prevent unauthorised access. Information is transmitted encrypted over HTTPS, and the company maintains technical and organisational measures to preserve confidentiality, integrity and availability.

Auravant implements two-factor authentication (2FA), role-based access control and permission management for sharing information between users or spaces. Data is retained for a maximum of 30 days after an account closes, after which it is deleted or anonymised for internal statistical purposes.

Recommendation for SMEs: ask Auravant for the security datasheet or the Data Processing Agreement (DPA) before integrating sensitive information or automating exchanges with other systems.

Language – Customer Support and Interface

Interface, help centre and tutorials are available in Spanish, which lowers the barrier to adoption in Latin America and Spain. Advanced support on enterprise plans includes initial training and dedicated guidance. There is no English-language interface or documentation.

AI Language – The Tool Itself

The AI does not depend on the user's language. It works with geospatial data and satellite series and presents its results in the Spanish interface. That makes it well suited to Spanish-speaking teams without requiring English prompts — but it also means the output is read in Spanish.

Mobile Access

iOS and Android apps are available with offline mode and automatic syncing. They display maps, record notes and carry out tasks in the field — useful in areas with patchy connectivity.

Support, Onboarding and Account Management

Auravant offers self-service support through its Help Centre, where users find guides and tutorials covering the platform's main functions. Email assistance is also available, and enterprise plans add personalised technical guidance and Customer Success attention to keep implementation efficient, with step-by-step resources online and initial training on Corporate plans.

Account management on team and enterprise plans is organised through Workspaces, which administer users, define hierarchies, assign permissions and control the area or extensions in use. Spaces take two kinds of user: internal (whose domain belongs to the organisation) and external (administrators). The administrator can structure the work through two group types: supervision groups, with hierarchical roles, and collaboration groups.

Corporate spaces also include analytics with pre-configured charts and maps, and let the administrator manage the allocation of premium extensions and per-user credits.

Ease of Use / UX

The UI is built on maps, layers and panels of key metrics. Learning is progressive: users with no prior experience can start with NDVI visualisation and work up to multi-layer prescriptions. A typical SME gets value within weeks by standardising scouting, recording evidence and applying variable rates.

The structure runs from a free plan up through Pro and Premium tiers, plus Enterprise with dedicated training and support. Auravant for Education is free for students and teachers, equivalent to Premium up to 100 ha. Don't anchor a budget without assessing hectares and team size: the cost/benefit improves markedly when prescriptions and records are used consistently.

An agricultural SME in Córdoba, farming 1,500 hectares, adopted Auravant to unify and standardise its maize fertilisation prescriptions. The technical adviser defined management zones from historical NDVI series and yield layers, exported the prescriptions to compatible monitors, and shared the work orders with operators through direct links.
The result was less over-application of inputs, better prioritisation of scouting, and complete traceability of operations from the mobile app, even offline. Integrating accounting and operations with a local ERP sped up the end-of-season close and improved cost control.
