Koidra is excited to announce the launch of DataPilot Basic, the free version of DataPilot, a comprehensive web-based and mobile application designed to centralize greenhouse agronomy data and generate actionable insights.

Today, greenhouse data is often scattered across systems: climate information resides in control panels, while crop records is still commonly tracked with paper forms or spreadsheets. This disconnect leads to inconsistent records, manual errors, and missed opportunities for optimization. DataPilot Basic solves this by unifying all agronomy data into a single, cloud-based platform, accessible through Koidra’s Control Center app—available on both desktop and mobile.

With DataPilot Basic, growers can:

  • Streamline crop data entry – Record data directly from the field using the mobile app, or input data via the web application. Built-in calculations reduce errors and support more informed decisions.
  • Visualize climate and crop data in one place – Sync real-time environmental data and view trends, correlations, and performance insights—all in one centralized dashboard.
  • Access data anytime, anywhere – Use the mobile app for quick data capture on-site, and the web app for advanced data analysis and management.

Why now?

Digital tools are more accessible than ever, but many growers still lack simple, affordable solutions. DataPilot Basic lowers the barrier, giving every grower a path into smarter, more efficient operations—without complex setup or upfront cost to get started.
