## Meet the Agrivero team.

- We are an international team of technology and coffee experts: software and hardware engineers, data scientists, and coffee and sustainability professionals.
- We enjoy working on difficult technical and industry problems, and we believe our solution will help many people run their coffee business more efficiently. The challenge fascinates us, to say the least.
- We began automating green coffee grading in 2021, and we will continue until the AI grading standard is widely adopted and transparency is tangible.
- We are based in Berlin, Germany.

## Darina Onoprienko
