Science and technology working as one for BioID+.
Strategic partnership with the Bioeconomy Science Institute of New Zealand
Seaweave is proud to partner with the Bioeconomy Science Institute (BSI) of New Zealand, formerly Plant & Food Research, to advance BioID+ and morphometrics for seafood species in Aotearoa New Zealand and worldwide. Together we draw on nearly a decade of world‑leading research in AI fish imaging, morphology and underwater monitoring, pairing BSI’s biological and morphometric expertise with Seaweave’s applied BioID+ and machine vision capability. This alignment of science and technology turns complex biological signals - such as identity, count, size, sex and condition - into decision‑ready insights for producers and researchers.
For Seaweave, this agreement is about moving proven BioID+ and morphometrics methods out of the lab and into everyday seafood operations. By integrating BSI’s advanced computer vision and modelling work with Seaweave’s applied BioID+ capability, we can help producers and researchers turn visual identity and biological parameters into practical insight that supports better decisions. Working alongside BSI, iwi and industry partners, we aim to co‑design digital tools that serve both commercial performance and kaitiakitanga, and that can scale from Aotearoa New Zealand to aquaculture regions around the world..
By pairing BioID+ and morphometrics with deep biological expertise, Seaweave and the Bioeconomy Science Institute are helping Aotearoa New Zealand move toward its goal of a climate‑resilient, multi‑billion‑dollar aquaculture sector by 2035, while opening new opportunities for sustainable seafood production globally.
BSI develops new wild‑catch and aquaculture technologies so the world can enjoy more seafood while protecting marine ecosystems. Seaweave draws on BSI’s biological and welfare expertise to co‑develop BioID+ and morphometrics‑based systems that improve the quality and value of each harvest, including in exposed open‑ocean environments. BSI pioneers fish‑centric production and harvesting methods, while Seaweave integrates these insights into AI‑enabled imaging, BioID+ and decision tools for farmers and fishers, helping seafood producers move toward more sustainable, data‑driven production.
