Land feasibilityin one API call.
Rootfifteen turns any coordinate on Earth into a 0–100 land score, using live satellite, climate, terrain and hazard data. Built with guidance under ISRO, with formal IN‑SPACe registration being pursued to unlock access to ISRO labs and deeper space‑agency collaboration. Weeks of survey work become a single request. Five-minute read.
Nobody knows if a piece of land works until they physically go there.
Whether it is a farm, a factory site or a solar park, land feasibility still means field teams, DGPS receivers and total stations scouting large tracts for weeks just to answer basic questions.
A single preliminary land assessment runs into lakhs. Firms screen only a handful of options because each one costs real money and calendar time — in agriculture as much as in infrastructure.
GIS platforms and imagery marketplaces hand you layers and pixels. Somebody still has to be a remote-sensing expert to turn that into a decision.
The result: land is chosen on relationships and intuition, and the bad news arrives after money is committed — across farming, construction and every land-heavy sector.
One request in. One decision-grade number out.
A project manager reads one number and a band. No GIS training, no imagery licences, no interpretation layer to hire.
Because a check costs a request instead of a site visit, teams can rank hundreds of candidate parcels before anyone travels.
Every score ships with the raw surface, climate, terrain and hazard values behind it, plus a plain-English summary.
A large, already-spending market — we sell the decision, not the pixels.
Global commercial Earth-observation analytics and geospatial services spend, growing at a low-to-mid teens CAGR.
Land feasibility, site selection and agri land assessment across India, South-East Asia and the Middle East — our two live verticals only.
A realistic 3-year target: roughly 1% of SAM, reachable with ~150 mid-size EPC, infrastructure and agri-finance accounts on annual API contracts.
Figures are our own estimates, built bottom-up from published EO-analytics market sizing and target-account counts. Treat as directional, not audited.
Deep tech under the hood, one number on the surface.
Sentinel-2 L2A at 10–20 m, Copernicus DEM for terrain, multi-year climate reanalysis and recorded seismic history — fetched live per coordinate.
A weighted fusion of surface, climate, terrain and geohazard pillars with hard gates for disqualifying conditions such as open water.
The same coordinate returns different indicators and bands for Farming versus Construction, because the two care about opposite things.
A 250-site backtest across farms, deserts, cities, mountains and coasts — with every miss published on the accuracy page.
API subscriptions, priced on volume.
Enterprise seats and call quotas sold per organisation, renewed annually. Land screening is a recurring workflow across farms, infrastructure and future verticals.
Metered per-call pricing beyond the included volume. A large farm or pre-construction screening grid alone is hundreds to thousands of calls.
Data sources are open and free at source. Cost per assessment is compute and bandwidth, so gross margin stays high as volume scales.
We are pre-revenue. Pricing is being set with design partners, so we are not publishing CAC or LTV figures we cannot yet defend.
Everyone else sells data. We sell the verdict.
| Option | What you get | Expertise needed |
|---|---|---|
| Field survey teams | Ground truth, weeks later | High · and expensive |
| GIS / imagery platforms | Layers and pixels | Remote-sensing specialist |
| Consulting reports | A PDF per site | Outsourced, slow |
| Rootfifteen | A 0–100 score + verdict, instantly | None |
Data sources are public and replicable. The calibrated weighting, gating and band logic that turns them into a trusted number is not.
The core scoring algorithm is currently being prepared for a patent application.
Every scored coordinate and every logged miss feeds back into calibration, so accuracy improves with usage.
One customer can screen thousands of parcels.
Direct founder-led sales into large EPC and infrastructure firms, where one contract covers a national pipeline of sites.
Banks, insurers and farm-tech platforms underwriting land-backed exposure need a defensible, repeatable land number per parcel.
The public demo lets a technical buyer validate the product for farming or construction before any sales conversation.
Grants, research partnerships and published accuracy work make procurement easier in conservative sectors.
Live product, real data, credible backing.
Backed with an $8,750 grant through Emergent Ventures at the Mercatus Center, George Mason University — non-dilutive funding that took V1 from concept to a live, publicly testable API.
250 coordinates scored across farms, deserts, cities, mountains and coasts. 94% landed in the predicted band, and every miss is published rather than hidden.
A live API serving real Sentinel-2, Copernicus DEM, climate and seismic data — publicly testable today, no sales call required.
Farming and Construction each return their own indicators and bands from the same engine, proving the model generalises.
Design-partner conversations underway with EPC and infrastructure firms whose site pipelines run into the hundreds per year.
Civet Projects: a ₹10,000 crore order book as our anchor design partner target.
We are in discussion with Civet Projects Private Limited, an EPC firm with a reported order book of around ₹10,000 crore, for a design-partner deployment on live pre-construction site selection. One such account screens hundreds of sites a year, so a single contract validates both the product and the pricing model.
Potential partnership · not yet contracted
An EPC design partner gives us real site outcomes to calibrate against — the feedback loop that makes the score model harder to copy.
Two verticals today. The same score sells into eight more.
Each vertical reuses the same data pipeline and score model — we only tune indicators and bands, so a new market is weeks of work, not a new company.
V2 adds higher-resolution imagery and polygon-level assessment instead of single points. That is the release that makes these eight verticals sellable at enterprise scale.
Three targets for the next twelve months.
Formal IN‑SPACe registration is being pursued to unlock access to ISRO labs and technical facilities, deepen the working relationship with ISRO scientists, and bring institutional space-agency credibility to the platform.
The core scoring algorithm is being prepared for a patent application — protecting the one part of the stack that cannot be replicated from open data.
Higher-resolution imagery, polygon-level assessment instead of point queries, and the next set of verticals mapped out on our roadmap page.
Raising a pre-seed round to scale a live API into a category standard.
The round is being raised on a founder-led basis to cover roughly the next eighteen months: shipping V2, converting design partners into paid deployments, and closing out the IP and registration work. Round size, instrument and terms are shared directly on a call.
V2 resolution, polygon assessment and the infrastructure to serve enterprise call volumes reliably.
Convert the Civet conversation into a paid deployment and add anchor accounts across farming and infrastructure.
Complete the patent process and the IN-SPACe registration that unlocks ISRO lab access and institutional partnerships.
