On a Mission to Transform Vietnamese Agriculture
From the fields of Dong Thap to millions of farms—building a sustainable future for agriculture.
"Technology shouldn't be a privilege for those who can afford it. It should be a bridge bringing knowledge to those who need it most."
— Vinimex AI Lab Founding Vision
The Problem We Saw
Vietnam has 9 million farming households. They feed the nation, export rice across the globe.
But when they need information about crop diseases, market prices, or weather forecasts—they still rely on word of mouth or guesswork.
Meanwhile, AI technology is transforming every other industry. Why should agriculture be left behind?
Our Journey
The Spark
A conversation with a farmer in Đồng Tháp changed everything. He lost 40% of his rice crop to disease—not because solutions didn't exist, but because information never reached him.
Building in the Fields
We didn't build in an office. We built in rice paddies, coffee farms, and dragon fruit orchards. Every line of code was tested by real farmers facing real problems.
Đom Đóm is Born
Named after the firefly—a tiny light in the darkness. Our AI assistant became that light for thousands of farmers, answering questions at 3 AM about why their crops were yellowing.
Scaling Impact
15 provinces. 10,000+ farmers. But we're just getting started. Our vision: every farmer in Vietnam—and beyond—has access to world-class agricultural intelligence.
What We Believe
Farmers First
Every decision we make, we ask: 'Does this help the farmer?'
Built for Reality
Our AI works on a 2G connection, in a muddy field, with one hand.
Obsessed with Impact
We measure success in yields increased, not just downloads.
This isn't just about technology. It's about people.
Every line of code we write, every feature we build, stems from one simple question: How can we help Vietnamese farmers live better lives?
