BSI & Seaweave Partnership

By combining Seaweave’s machine vision platforms with BSI’s BioID and fish behaviour science, processors gain reliable in‑line tools for high‑throughput counting, species and grade identification, and quality assessment from factory floor to export lane. This creates richer traceability, more accurate inventory and yield data, and the ability to optimise processing flows in near real time without slowing the line.

This partnership is designed to translate trusted New Zealand science into practical tools on farms, accelerating the adoption of precision aquaculture and digital twins across finfish and shellfish operations.

Seaweave holds exclusive commercial licensing and science services arrangements with the Bioeconomy Science Institute, enabling us to embed advanced fish identification, growth and health assessment algorithms directly into our systems.

The same partnership is extending to wild capture fisheries, where AI‑enabled cameras and sensors can support marine mammal detection, underwater species identification and factory‑at‑sea monitoring to reduce bycatch and strengthen compliance. Integrated with vessel and factory systems, these tools help skippers and regulators focus on the moments that matter, improving safety, sustainability and reporting while lowering the cost of observation.

Through the partnership between the Bioeconomy Science Institute and Seaweave, customers gain richer, continuous data on stock, product and environmental performance, supporting smarter day‑to‑day decisions, more accurate forecasts and earlier detection of operational or welfare issues. By connecting these insights into Seaweave’s information systems, organisations across farming, processing and wider marine operations can improve profitability, resilience and environmental stewardship without needing to overhaul existing infrastructure.
