Sense. Control. Analyse. Plan.
Kinokora joins sensors, a controller box, firmware, a cloud server, an app and crop research into one system that keeps an indoor crop on target.
Why indoor growers lose crops
Tight climate windows
Mushrooms, microgreens and herbs need narrow temperature, humidity and CO₂ ranges. A few bad hours can spoil a batch.
Manual work
Growers check rooms by hand and run equipment on timers. Nobody watches the room at 3 a.m.
No data, no learning
Without records, nobody knows why a batch failed, so the same loss happens again.
Closed-loop climate control
The box measures the room every few seconds and switches each output to hold the targets for the current crop stage.
- Humidity and VPD control with foggers and misters
- Ventilation on CO₂ and temperature
- Heating and lighting schedules
- Safety limits on every output
From readings to decisions
Sensor data flows to a time-series database. The app turns it into graphs, daily summaries and alerts, and compares each room with its crop model.
- Live and history graphs
- VPD and dew point computed from the readings
- Alerts when a trend drifts out of range
- Batch journal with tasks, photos and yields
Crop research and AI
150+ crop models
Each crop has stages, climate ranges, care steps, equipment and economics, built from agronomy research.
AI farm assistant
Explains readings in plain language, finds the likely cause of a problem and suggests the next step.
Plans and calendar
Stage-by-stage plans and daily tasks for each batch, from start to harvest.
One system, five layers
- SensorsTemperature, humidity, CO₂ and probes in the grow room.
- Controller boxESP32 firmware that runs the crop plan and switches equipment.
- ServerFastAPI, MQTT and a PostgreSQL / TimescaleDB time-series store, hosted in India.
- AppAndroid, iOS and web: live readings, graphs, alerts, plans and the AI assistant.
- Crop knowledgeThe research database that sets every target and task.
