Detect, count, and report target pests
Onboard microcontroller is programmed to detect the target pest and report data wirelessly to our OpenScout software.

You go the extra mile—your scouting app should too. Easily record and tag notes and photos as you walk your fields. Give observations a severity rating, choose your picklists, and configure pest lists so scouts only see relevant pests. OpenScout lets you visualize high-level trends across all the acres you manage.
Make tracking pest populations, lures, and pesticide applications simple. Set up traps, record pest data, and keep track of lure life from the field. Visualize pest populations geographically and keep track of how they change over time.
MyTraps is now integrated into OpenScout.

Use Spensa's extensive pest library or customize your own list so that scouts only see relevant pests for the crop and region they're scoring. Record critical, quantifiable data for each pest, as well as photos and detailed notes of any problems encountered.
Easily send compelling, visual scouting reports that summarize scouting trips, trap counts, descriptions and photos of problems found, and predictions of pest cycles in the fields you choose. Send reports directly from the field, via email, or in printed form to review with the grower in person. Schedule reports for automatic distribution on any schedule.
Automate the process of insect trapping and counting with our novel insect traps. Collect real-time trap data from your fields or orchards. Set up the traps at the beginning of the growing season and let them do the work for you. Monitor your pest populations from your computer or smartphone. Catch problems early. Use pesticides with more precision.
Onboard microcontroller is programmed to detect the target pest and report data wirelessly to our OpenScout software.
Our traps use a unique, patented, bio-impedance sensor that measures the discrete impedance property of an object that hits the sensor and determines if the signature matches the profile of the target pest.
Custom rechargeable batteries are designed to last through a season of trapping. Easily deploy in the field and view data from your web or mobile app. Uses standard pheromone lures.
Spensa is Latin for storehouse. Our goal is to help protect your crops from threats so you can fill your storehouses. We do that by creating tools that provide valuable, timely, and relevant insights.
Our agricultural models are transparent, visual, and configurable to your needs. We believe that no one can make better decisions about their crops than the grower, and technology should be used as a force-multiplier for human decisions — not a replacement for them.
We have easy point-and click alerts to allow you to communicate pest problems to all stakeholders in visual and easy to understand formats. Send reports directly from the field, via email, or in printed form to review with the grower in person. Set up reports for automatic distribution on any schedule.
We put trusted university models to work with thousands of data points collected in our tools. Combined with accurate and local weather data and environmental condition data we can help you predict problems and assess economic impact.
Prioritize fields with growth stage modeling, predict moth flight and egg hatch timing with phenology models, evaluate economic impact of treatments and timing, and visualize risks in your fields.
There is no substitute for boots in the field. Spensa's solution gives you the best of all worlds — in-field human judgment for spotting and documenting insect, weed, and disease problems; real-time Z-Traps for time-sensitive response to insect populations; world-class short-term, long-term, and historical weather from local stations; and high-resolution maps of yield and fertility.
Spensa is an eclectic group of engineers, designers, business people, and ag specialists. We're passionate about solving growers' problems.
