Building the infrastructure layer for parametric crop insurance in Africa.
MicroCrop is building the technology platform that will enable insurance companies, cooperatives, lenders, and NGOs to launch parametric crop insurance products — powered by blockchain, satellite data, and automated smart contracts. We believe protecting smallholder farmers from climate risk shouldn't require years of infrastructure development.
Idea & Research
Identified the gap in parametric crop insurance infrastructure for Africa. Began researching blockchain-based solutions, weather oracle integrations, and mobile money payout rails.
Platform Development
Started building the MicroCrop platform — smart contracts on Base, Chainlink oracle integrations, WeatherXM data pipelines, and M-Pesa payout infrastructure via Swypt.
MVP Complete
Completed the core platform: multi-tenant architecture, white-label onboarding, risk pool deployment, automated damage assessments, and analytics dashboards.
Seeking Partners & Funding
Actively seeking early partner organizations and seed funding to deploy the platform with insurance companies, cooperatives, and agri-lenders across East Africa.
Built on technology you can trust
Our platform is built on proven infrastructure — Base for on-chain transparency, Chainlink and WeatherXM for reliable data oracles, and M-Pesa for last-mile farmer payouts.
Our team
We're a team of builders passionate about using blockchain, data science, and agricultural technology to solve real problems for African farming communities.
Our team combines expertise in smart contract development, satellite data analysis, insurance product design, and mobile money integrations to build the platform infrastructure that organizations need to serve farmers at scale.
Our vision: Making parametric crop insurance accessible across Africa.
We're building toward a future where any organization — insurer, cooperative, lender, or NGO — can launch crop insurance products for their farmers in weeks, not years. Here's what we're working toward.
