Looking Ahead to 2026: Refinement, Scale, and Recognition

As we look ahead to 2026, Ground Truth Ag enters the year from a position of confidence. Our systems are deployed. Manufacturing is in place. Operational processes are established. The focus now is refinement and scale. 

For us, 2026 is not about proving automatic grain grading.  The opportunity ahead is to continue raising the bar on performance, speed, and consistency, while expanding the reach of our technology across more crops, facilities, and regions. 

“The system works,” said Kyle Folk, our Chief Executive Officer. “Now the focus is on making it faster, broader, and more valuable across the industry.” 

From Implementation to Continuous Improvement 

“We are no longer focused on whether the system can be implemented,” said Divyesh Patel, our Chief Operating Officer. “Our attention is on refining what is already working and continuing to exceed expectations.” 

This refinement includes continued progress on our on combine device, growing demand for benchtop systems, and deeper performance across an expanding library of grain models. 

Expanding Models and Market Reach 

Model expansion will be a key priority in 2026. We are preparing to introduce new grading capabilities for corn, canola, and oats, building on the progress made with soybeans, red lentils, hard red spring, and amber durum.  

“More grain types, more regions, and more facilities,” Kyle said. “That is where our focus will be.” 

As adoption increases, speed and operational efficiency remain top of mind. Facilities rely on timely, consistent grading results, especially during high volume periods, and we continue to refine both hardware and software to meet those demands. 

Built to Support Scale 

One of the most important foundations for 2026 is the manufacturing capability we built over the past year. 

In 2025, we established quality assurance processes, deployment standards, and remote update capabilities that now support installations across Canada and the United States. These systems allow us to scale while maintaining the reliability our customers expect. 

“Learning what it takes to deploy at scale has been a major milestone,” Kyle said. “Strong manufacturing discipline and operational structure are what make long term growth possible.” 

Looking Forward 

What excites us most as we move into 2026 is the momentum we are seeing across the industry. 

“We are seeing a shift in how grain quality is evaluated,” Divyesh said. “There is growing openness to new approaches, and real adoption is happening.” 

For Kyle, the word that defines what lies ahead captures that momentum clearly. 

“2025 was collaborative,” he said. “2026 will be recognized.” 

Recognized not just as new technology, but as a dependable and trusted part of how grain quality is evaluated across the supply chain.
