Optoscale

Optoscale (OptoScale AS) is a Norwegian aquaculture technology company founded in 2015 in Trondheim that builds AI-powered, camera-based edge-computing monitoring for fish farming. Its Bioscope units capture real-time measurements of fish weight, biomass, sea-lice counts, welfare, behaviour and feeding, producing tens of thousands of validated measurements each day directly on the unit rather than on remote servers. Customers view trends, graphs and high-resolution imagery through the OptoScale web portal, export to Excel/CSV, and integrate the underlying data into their own analytics and farm-management systems via OptoScale's data API. OptoScale was acquired by Insight Partners in 2025.

Optoscale is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Aquaculture, Fish Farming, Monitoring, and Computer Vision.

Optoscale’s developer surface includes support, engineering blog, and 7 more developer resources.
