Asunción, Paraguay

Environmental

intelligence systems.

AI applied in forests, rivers, streets and greenhouses. Data infrastructure for the ecosystems that global platforms overlook.

Who We Are

We started with a greenhouse

We started in 2018 with a hydroponic greenhouse in Asunción. Not as an AI lab — as an agricultural business. We grew, sold and learned. From the first cycle we began capturing data and building our own tools: sensors, 3D-printed prototypes, monitoring systems. In recent years, we incorporated computer vision, machine learning and artificial intelligence — not as a buzzword, but as a real working tool. It showed us how much faster we could move and how much further we could go with what we already knew. Every unsolved problem became a project.

Paraguay

Why Paraguay?

AI infrastructure consumes two critical resources: electricity for compute and water for cooling. Paraguay has both in abundance.

100% renewable

Paraguay's electricity comes almost entirely from hydroelectric sources. We train and operate on clean energy from the source.

Energy surplus

Itaipú and Yacyretá make Paraguay one of the largest net energy exporters in the region. Here, compute can be deployed where the energy already exists.

AI infrastructure advantage

With abundant energy, competitive electricity costs and favorable conditions for compute-intensive industries, Paraguay offers a real foundation for deploying AI infrastructure.

Energy infrastructure

Two dams. 17,000 MW.
99% renewable.

Paraguay generates virtually all its electricity from hydropower — and produces so much it exports more than half. Two binational dams make this unique global position possible.

Itaipú

Paraguay · Brazil

The second largest hydroelectric dam in the world by installed capacity. 20 turbines at 700 MW each. Supplies approximately 86% of Paraguay's electricity and 10% of Brazil's.

Yacyretá

Located on the Paraná River between Paraguay and Argentina. Complements Itaipú as the country's second hydroelectric source, ensuring redundancy and supply stability.

Our Network

We work with those who know the territory

We partner with organizations facing complex field problems that need more than dashboards: they need systems that work. The data belongs to those who generate it — we provide the tools.

Environmental agencies

Governments and conservation institutions

They need continuous and reliable data about their ecosystems — biodiversity, vegetation cover, water resources — but lack the technical capacity to generate it. FDF deploys the sensors, operates the models and delivers decision-ready data. The data is theirs.

Science and research

Scientific institutions and universities

They work with species and environments that global models don't cover. They need annotated datasets with regional taxonomic rigor, validated by domain experts. We build those datasets alongside them — AI-first annotation pipelines with scientific validation, not the other way around.

Infrastructure and local government

Municipalities and public management agencies

They manage assets they have no systematic data on: roads, watersheds, green areas, urban infrastructure. FDF builds and operates autonomous monitoring systems — without the agency needing to set up its own technical team to make it work.

Carbon markets

Carbon projects and verifiers

Carbon markets need automated, auditable and scalable monitoring across hundreds of thousands of hectares. We combine field experience in the region with autonomous monitoring systems to build the infrastructure these projects still don't have.

“A research institution with the speed of a startup. Technology built to operate in the field, not just on screen.”

Work with us

We work with research institutions, environmental agencies and governments that need AI systems capable of operating in the real world.
