Pattern Ag

aid: pattern-ag
name: Pattern Ag
description: Pattern Ag was a predictive-agronomy company founded in 2018 and headquartered in Emeryville, California, that
  applied DNA sequencing and soil metagenomics to forecast agronomic outcomes twelve months ahead of a growing season. Its
  Complete Bio and Pattern 360 products profiled the soil microbiome to predict pest, pathogen and nutrient-deficiency pressure,
  informing crop-protection, seed-selection and fertility decisions for corn and soybean growers, and in 2023 the company
  announced what it described as the world's largest single-ecosystem metagenomics database. In August 2024 Pattern Ag merged
  with soil-sensing company EarthOptics; the combined business operates under the EarthOptics name and the Pattern Ag brand
  has been retired. As of this profile the pattern.ag website issues an HTTP 301 to www.earthoptics.com, every Pattern Ag
  deep link returns 404, and the Pattern Ag LinkedIn page redirects to an EarthOptics company page. Pattern Ag never published
  a public developer program, API documentation, SDKs or a machine-readable API contract under its own brand, and no Pattern
  Ag API surface survives. The successor company's private REST API is profiled separately at all/earth-optics.

  notes: 'Pattern Ag is an absorbed brand, not a live provider. STEP 0b contract discovery ran against every reachable Pattern
    Ag host and against the successor host set, and found no Pattern Ag contract of any kind. https://www.pattern.ag/ returns
    HTTP 301 to https://www.earthoptics.com following the August 2024 EarthOptics merger; all seven /.well-known/ paths, /llms.txt
    and /openapi.json on www.pattern.ag return 404, and the Pattern Ag LinkedIn company page redirects to an EarthOptics page.
    No npm, PyPI or GitHub organization exists under the Pattern Ag name. The inherited Website pointer to https://www.nasdaqprivatemarket.com/
    was a harvest-source artifact (harvest.yml line 18057 records that generic venue URL for every nasdaq-sourced row) and
    asserted a false fact about the company; it was removed and replaced with the real domain. The successor surface — a private
    Django REST Framework API at api.earthoptics.com whose drf-spectacular schema at /api/schema/ returns HTTP 401 — is deliberately
    NOT claimed here: it is EarthOptics'' contract and is already profiled at all/earth-optics. Written: domain-security probe,
    well-known absence record, generated llms.txt.'
x-coverage:
  state: none
  reason: defunct
  detail: Pattern Ag merged into EarthOptics in August 2024 and the brand was retired — https://www.pattern.ag/ now issues
    an HTTP 301 to www.earthoptics.com, every Pattern Ag deep link 404s, and the company never published a developer portal
    or API contract under its own domain before the merger.
