Cattle Care

Cattle Care was created in 2017 by immigrants from Russia, including Artem Timanov (co-founder of audio marketing startup Market Music, which was bought by Muzlab in 2020) and Ilya Colin. The latter, before the launch of Cattle Care, was engaged in the production of milking equipment in Russia. The startup is developing a platform for surveillance of cows on farms and data analysis using computer vision to control timely feeding, milking and treatment of animals.

History

2023: Raising $530,000 in investments

In June 2023, it became known about the investment of $530 thousand in Cattle Care. The developer of technologies for video surveillance of cows invested funds from 2BF, SPC Capital, Big Art, as well as several business angels. According to the results of the financing round, the startup was valued at $15 million.

One of the co-founders of the project, Artyom Timanov, said in mid-June 2023 that in the near future "they plan to close several more checks." From its inception through June 2023, Cattle Care raised a total of $2.1 million, according to the Crunchbase project. 55 farms cooperate with the startup, which have about 187 thousand cows (by June 2023).

As explained in the company, cows need to be monitored to control milking and feeding processes, as well as to track the behavior of animals. Such monitoring using computer vision allows you to improve processes, treat animals on time, which leads to an increase in milk yield and, as a result, to an increase in farm revenue, the developers say.

For a cow, feed should always be available and within sight. Food can be stored for no more than a day, so it cannot be filled with stock. Therefore, you have to put food at least twice a day. If this is not done, the cows will starve and give less milk, explains Cattle Care.[1]
