Otta's take

CTO of Otta

LiveEO’s Earth Observation platform uses satellite data, data analysis software, and AI to help infrastructure companies monitor and assess risks. Backed by the European Space Agency, LiveEO, founded in 2017, has major European clients like Deutsche Bahn, E.ON subsidiaries, and Gascade. A partnership with Planet enables global scaling of its monitoring operations.

Since 2021, LiveEO has tripled its revenues and doubled its workforce, showcasing its successful integration of space tech and enterprise data. Recently, LiveEO secured $10 million from Greencode Ventures, allowing entry into the market for compliance with the European Union Deforestation Regulation (EUDR). This regulation mandates companies verify their imported commodities do not contribute to deforestation.

LiveEO’s AI models are enhancing climate resilience for global infrastructure networks, including collaborations in the USA, Australia, and Japan. The new deforestation monitoring solution positions LiveEO as a leader in this emerging market. With a robust AI and deep tech stack, LiveEO is setting a new industry standard, unlocking the full potential of earth observation for humanity and life on Earth.
