Try it yourself

Change one value. Watch the whole cycle respond.

Horizon offers planning, production, finance and analytics tools. Adjust an assumption in history, the planner or the budget — and see it ripple through every module and into the numbers that decide the farmer's margin.

Why Horizon

We don’t just sell software — we sell better decisions.

The answer to the questions above isn’t yet another dashboard — it’s how Horizon is built: planning, production and finance on one platform, fed by your own data.

01

One platform, not ten tools

Planning, production, budget and cost on the same platform. Change one assumption and the whole cycle — right down to cost per kilo — responds.

02

The numbers behind every decision

Forecasts, optimisation and scenarios on your own history, not rules of thumb. You see the outcome before you decide.

03

Built by a team with real depth

A marine-biology PhD, pen-side operators, production planners and 20 years of aquaculture-economics experience — developed in close collaboration with farmers. Biology, economics and technology, in one team.

The technology

The industry's best forecasting — built on the industry's data.

Everything we project forward rests on the Horizon growth model — machine-learning driven, trained on a unique dataset and validated against real production data. It is essential to planning and budgeting: it tracks the fish, not the average, so plans, budgets and forecasts hold through the whole cycle.

Sustainability

Better biology is better business.

Sustainability in aquaculture is about making the right decisions, every day. Better numbers mean less waste, more accurate feeding and healthier fish — and what's good for the biology is usually good for the economy.

The team

A team of specialists that answers the phone.

We're around 12 people in Trondheim — a marine-biology PhD, people who've worked pen-side and planned production, and 20+ years building economics tools for fish farmers. Not an anonymous portal in English — but advisers who know your production, and have time for you.
