About

Started with advanced analytics, we then added Workflow management

Quarter of every
plate is protein

Our mission is to make animal
protein more affordable, accessible
and traceable

2012

Ecto was started in 2012, with advanced analytics for the fish farming industry... but then realized the huge gap in data (availability, accuraccy, accessibility) and workflow management

2020

In 2020, Ecto switched its main focus to the development of a contemporary management system that would simplify data recording and increase efficiency of operations

2021

Ecto.Jobs was launched in 2021 and instantly received significant traction from clients in all main protein industries - fish, poultry, and pork - with 8K+ pieces of data entered each day

Our Principles

Emphasizing animal welfare

The animals we eat keep us healthy. We have a responsibility to return the favor, on farms or in the wild.

Driving transparency

We use data to get to the bottom of things and create new knowledge, even when the outcomes are challenging or inconvenient.

Prioritizing farmers

Farming is hard work, so we work hard to make it easier. We put ourselves in their shoes when we develop our innovations.

Improving, every day

Every project starts somewhere, and we don’t wait until we have a crystal clear path to get started. We get started, learn by doing, so we can keep getting better.

Preventing versus reacting

The long-term benefits of prevention may seem “invisible,” but proactive management is easier and cheaper than reactive treatment.

Creating value

We chase solutions, not just technology for technology’s sake. We aim to to make the biggest possible impact with minimal resources.
