Pune: KhetiBuddy, an agritech startup working with agri-food supply chains, has announced the launch of Verdnt, its next-generation enterprise SaaS platform designed to serve as an AI-native SaaS backbone for mid-to-large agribusinesses operating across complex and fragmented supply chains.
With Verdnt, KhetiBuddy marks a strategic shift toward embedding farm intelligence directly into enterprise decision-making systems.
Fragmentation Across Agri-Food Supply Chains
Agribusinesses today operate across geographically dispersed farms, markets, and supplier networks, often relying on systems that offer limited visibility into on-ground farming practices.
This fragmentation results in gaps in farm-level traceability, limited assessment of climate and production risks, and challenges in contract compliance and execution.

Verdnt functions as an enterprise data backbone that unifies agronomy, operations, and sustainability workflows across the agri-food value chain.
By integrating farm data into procurement, production planning, inventory management, and sustainability dashboards, Verdnt enables enterprises to transition from retrospective reporting to proactive, data-driven decision-making.
Verdnt Designed for Enterprise-Grade Farm Data Visibility
Built for mid-size to large agri-food businesses, food and beverage companies, agri-input firms, and large enterprises where farm data visibility is critical for operational and regulatory decision-making, Verdnt moves beyond standalone digital tools.
The platform ensures consistent, auditable data flows from farms to enterprise systems, supporting governance, compliance, and operational efficiency at scale.
AI Capabilities Built on Explainable and Auditable Data
The AI capabilities within Verdnt are layered on an existing enterprise backbone that captures structured data across farm operations, sustainability metrics, and enterprise workflows.
This architecture allows artificial intelligence to be introduced incrementally for functions such as risk identification and decision support, while maintaining transparency and human oversight.
The AI models deployed within Verdnt are trained on agronomic, climate, and compliance-related datasets, ensuring that outputs remain explainable, traceable, and auditable for enterprise users.

Commenting on the launch, Vinay Nair, Founder and CEO of KhetiBuddy, said that Verdnt reflects the company’s long-term vision of building an AI-native SaaS backbone for agribusinesses.
He noted that while agri-food ecosystems generate vast volumes of data, much of it remains disconnected from core enterprise decision-making. The platform aims to integrate farm intelligence into everyday business operations rather than treating it as a standalone reporting function.
Verdnt Builds on KhetiBuddy’s Global Enterprise Deployments
Verdnt builds on KhetiBuddy’s existing enterprise deployments across food companies, wineries, and agri-input businesses, where its software has supported farm digitisation, sustainability reporting, and compliance readiness.
Recent pilots conducted in North America and Europe have further validated the platform’s ability to integrate farm and sustainability data into enterprise environments.
With the launch of this new platform, KhetiBuddy seeks to establish a common operational and intelligence layer for agri-food enterprises, positioning farm data as a foundational component of enterprise systems.
