Equinom launches AI-powered solution for plant-based protein industry

August 20, 2024

Equinom, a pioneering ag-tech company, has announced the commercial availability of Manna, its AI-powered solution designed to transform the plant-based protein industry. After eight years of rigorous development, Manna is poised to redefine efficiency and precision in yellow pea dry fractionation.

At the core of Manna is its ability to bridge the gap between biology and processability. By analyzing the biochemical parameters of grains, the AI system predicts optimal machinery settings, resulting in substantial improvements in processing efficiency. Additionally, Manna can grade and select the best yellow pea varieties for processing, empowering processors to make data-driven purchasing decisions.

The financial benefits of Manna are equally impressive. Early adopters have reported potential savings of between US$300,000 and US$500,000 for every 10,000 metric tons of grains processed annually. This level of cost reduction is a game-changer for an industry striving for sustainability and profitability.

Initially offered as a service, with a SaaS model planned for the future, Manna is already making waves in the yellow pea processing sector. Equinom has ambitious plans to expand the system's capabilities to include other crops, such as wheat, in the coming years.

“We are thrilled to introduce Manna to the market,” said Itay Zemach, Director, R&D Program Manager at Equinom. “This technology represents a significant leap forward in plant-based protein production. By optimizing processes and reducing costs, we are helping our partners to build a more sustainable and profitable future.”

Equinom’s Manna arrives at a time when consumer demand for plant-based alternatives is surging. As the industry expands, the need for innovative solutions to enhance efficiency and reduce costs becomes increasingly critical. Manna addresses these challenges head-on, positioning Equinom as a leader in the plant-based protein revolution.
