N.O.A.H.

Satellite data and AI for crop insurance agents

Underwriting & Risk Startup Bootstrapped

Overview

N.O.A.H. is a satellite data analytics platform for crop insurance agents and brokers serving open-field agricultural markets. The platform processes imagery from over 100 global satellite data sources -- including providers such as Airbus, ICEYE, and ImageSat International -- combined with multi-year climate records and in-season weather feeds to support underwriting and claims workflows for Multi-Peril Crop Insurance (MPCI).

The platform delivers field-level yield predictions through attention-based AI models that ingest satellite imagery and weather data to generate per-field forecasts. The company reports accuracy rates of up to 97% for corn yield predictions. Agents use these outputs to recommend MPCI coverage levels, verify acreage, and expedite claims assessments. Co-founder Sergey Gershun brings prior experience as an ex-Sun software engineer and co-founder of an AdTech startup; the team built a proprietary database aggregating over 100 satellite data sources from providers across multiple continents.

N.O.A.H. signed its first US commercial contract in January 2025, with reported annual recurring revenue potential of USD 75K. The company was simultaneously in negotiations with a major MGA licensed in 48 states and running a prototype design partnership with a crop insurance agency in Kentucky. As of early 2025, it was bootstrapped with USD 900K in committed funding and targeting an additional USD 600K to close a Series A round.
