“Airborne disease outbreaks like avian flu have cost the industry billions,” Hema Ravindran, Co-Founder and CEO, said. “Even in normal years, farms lose hundreds of thousands from poor air quality and preventable infections. As scientists, we knew the tech to fix it existed—we made it smarter, tougher, and farm-ready.”
Founded three years ago, KiposTech was born from a mission to eliminate avoidable losses in farming through intelligent, science-backed innovation, Ravindran said. With early tests showing over 90% pathogen kill rates, their technology is already proving its value.
“We’ve had to educate skeptical stakeholders, demonstrate real-world results, and navigate complex pilot timelines—all while building a physical product from the ground up,” Ravindran said.
Internally, KiposTech maintains a mission-driven culture focused on flexibility, equity, and impact. “Everyone is treated like a builder, not a cog,” Ravindran said. “We keep things flat, fast, and focused on outcomes—so every team member knows their work truly matters.”
