AI-Powered Grape Ripeness Detection.
On the Vine and On Time
Who We Are
Precision Harvesting for the Modern Vineyard
Ripen AI is a Queen Mary University of London initiative transforming grape ripeness detection using portable optical sensors and artificial intelligence. We help winemakers harvest smarter with real-time, non-invasive data right from the field.
Current Vineyard Challenges
The Hidden Costs of Traditional Harvesting
Manual Sampling
Old methods rely on slow, hands-on testing that limits coverage and delays decisions.
Destructive Testing
Crushing grapes for lab results wastes fruit and inflates costs unnecessarily.
Climate Uncertainty
Changing weather affects ripeness timing without real-time tools, quality suffers.
Are you a grower, agritech innovator, or winemaker?
We’d love your input on the biggest challenges in grape harvesting.
