Xoople, a Barcelona-born deep tech startup, just made a bold entrance into the global AI scene. The company exited stealth with a staggering €115 million in equity funding, marking one of the largest investments ever made through Spain’s Innvierte programme. Backed by key investors including CDTI and AXIS (owned by the Instituto de Crédito Oficial), this milestone reinforces Spain’s ambitions in artificial intelligence and Earth observation.
Positioning itself as the world’s first purpose-built Earth Intelligence company, Xoople is now set to accelerate development of its flagship platform, EarthAI. With it, the company aims to make Earth surface data not just accessible—but deeply useful for real-world decision-making.
From Satellite Imagery to AI-Ready Insights
Xoople is flipping the script on traditional Earth observation. Instead of relying solely on raw satellite images, its EarthAI platform transforms this data into actionable, AI-friendly formats. This shift means industries can detect changes, forecast disruptions, and act quickly using a continuous stream of reliable, machine-ready data.
Whether it’s predicting a flood’s impact, monitoring infrastructure wear and tear, or tracking illegal deforestation, EarthAI helps users make smarter decisions. The platform connects seamlessly with enterprise software, enabling real-time insights that previously took weeks to gather.
Redefining How Industries Interact with the Planet
Xoople’s Earth intelligence has real, measurable impact across sectors. In agriculture, the platform helps farmers detect crop stress early, monitor soil health, and track water conditions. These insights improve yields, reduce waste, and support participation in carbon markets.
For transport and logistics, EarthAI provides visibility into infrastructure status, predicts delays from weather or terrain, and supports optimized route planning. The result? Leaner supply chains and safer operations.
Backed by strategic partners like Microsoft and Esri, Xoople ensures its data is scalable, secure, and accessible globally. These collaborations also give the platform reach far beyond Spain, positioning it as a global solution for AI-driven sustainability.
Fueling Spain’s Deep Tech Rise
Spain isn’t just watching from the sidelines. By naming Xoople a Strategic Enterprise, the country is signaling its intent to lead in Earth Intelligence. The company’s platform supports Spain’s goals of digital sovereignty, while also contributing to broader European strategies around climate resilience and tech independence.
Government leaders, including Teresa Riesgo from the Ministry of Science, have praised Xoople’s vision and timing. Meanwhile, the Spanish Space Agency described EarthAI as a turning point in satellite intelligence—bridging the gap between complex data and practical decisions.
Esri’s global head of marketing, Richard Cooke, echoed the excitement, calling Xoople’s AI-ready datasets and scientific rigor unmatched in today’s market. According to Cooke, the company brings “a dependable ground truth” that helps industries move from imagery to insight.
CEO Fabrizio Pirondini captured the company’s mission best: “In a volatile world, the ability to quickly detect and understand Earth’s changes is more crucial than ever.”
As Xoople scales its technology and expands its satellite network, it’s not just building a product—it’s shaping a new category. One where EarthAI becomes essential for agriculture, climate action, infrastructure, and beyond.
