Identify
We map trillions of interactions between living organisms in the soil to identify the rare microbes with the right internal DNA software to produce nitrogen.
Reprogram
We reverse engineer the DNA software that makes each microbe tick, and we evaluate billions of ways to reprogram the genetic blueprint to improve how much nitrogen each microbe produces.
Produce Nitrogen
Sensing the nutrient needs of the crop, our reprogrammed microbes reliably produce the right levels of nitrogen in any weather and throughout the growing season.
Distribute at Scale
Across millions of combinations of soil types, farming practices, and weather patterns, our products operate to fuel scalable, low-carbon agriculture.
Powered By Fermentation
Pivot Bio’s microbes are produced using fermentation. They are fed sugars and allowed to grow until they’ve reached a high enough concentration to be sold for use on the farm. Fermentation replaces the chemical-based Haber-Bosch Process, which is the energy-intensive production process traditionally used to create synthetic nitrogen, and reduces potential greenhouse gas emissions by approximately 98%.
