At Beef Sommelier, we provide our B-som Diagnosis with the aim of creating a world where producers can raise their ideal cattle and consumers can enjoy beef that truly matches their preferences. Our technology not only quantifies biological information from beef cattle, but also supports producers in achieving their target meat quality. By introducing a new scientific perspective that goes beyond conventional standards, we make the “unseen qualities” of beef visible and measurable. This enables consumers to clearly understand the characteristics of the beef they choose. B-som is the world’s first scientific diagnostic service that bridges the gap between producers and consumers.

We offer three core services: “Actaba” for detecting abandoned farmland, “Detaba” for estimating crop classification, and “Ninataba” for connecting farmland with people. By leveraging satellite data and land parcel information, we visualize farmland to promote effective use and sustainability. We also support environmental conservation and regenerative agriculture through soil analysis, calculation of GHG emissions and carbon removal (aligned with SBTi-FLAG), carbon credit projects, and the promotion of decarbonized agricultural materials.
