“The companies that win aren’t just automated—they’re automation is repeatable, maintainable and scalable by design.”

Many growing operations invest heavily in custom automation. This includes building hardware, software, dashboards, and cloud infrastructure from scratch. However, this approach is often slow and costly. Projects typically take 6–12 months per site and can cost between $50K to $150K+. Additionally, they require ongoing support from developers and integrators.


Advanced Autoponics offers a faster, more scalable solution. We provide a complete automation platform, including industrial-grade hardware, configurable control logic, built-in sensor support, and seamless interfaces through Geminy UI and Geminy Cloud. Designed specifically for production environments, our system enables you to go live in weeks—not quarters. It simplifies deployment, scaling, and support.
