Technology That Grows More With Less.
What started as a small rooftop polyhouse in Kota evolved into a technology-driven farming model, proving that agriculture can be built on control, not uncertainty.
Eeki developed proprietary growing chambers backed by patents, enabling farming inside fully controlled environments where every input is optimized for consistency and scale
Achieving 300%+ higher yield while reducing water usage by up to 80–95%, Eeki demonstrates how farming can become both productive and sustainable at the same time.
By removing dependency on soil and seasons, Eeki enables year-round production, making farming more predictable in an era of climate uncertainty.
Eeki’s model converts non-arable land into high-output farms, creating a new way to think about land — not just as space, but as a long-term income-generating asset.
With $20.1M raised across multiple funding rounds, Eeki has gained backing from institutional investors, validating its technology-first approach to agriculture.
Eeki launched its first commercial farm, proving that its model could work beyond controlled experiments and into real markets.
The journey began with a rooftop polyhouse in Kota, where early experiments tested the possibility of controlled environment farming.
Raised $7M in Series A2 funding, aimed at expanding farms, strengthening R&D, and scaling its next-generation farming technology.
The company established its first research farm, focusing on building scalable and repeatable farming systems.
Eeki Automation Private Limited was formally incorporated, marking the transition from experimentation to a structured agritech venture.
Introduction of advanced aeroponic growing chambers, marking a shift towards more efficient, precise, and scalable farming systems.
The company began scaling operations with multiple farms and increasing acreage, moving towards a larger production footprint across regions.
With funding from investors like Avaana Capital and General Catalyst, Eeki strengthened its position as a serious player in agritech innovation.
