Toronto-based AgTech startup, Vivid Machines, raised a $4.3M Seed round by BDC Capital Thrive Venture Fund.  The company uses computer vision to provide real-time insights to crop growers and fruit marketers.  Vivid Machine plans to use the funds to expand its system applications, including increasing the number of crops it analyzes. The round included participation from Algoma Orchards, Tall Grass Ventures, StandUp Ventures, Entrepreneur First, and BoxOne Ventures, among others.  Earlier this month, a similar company that analyzes crop lifecycles using AI, South Korea-based Green Labs, raised $38.4M in debt financing.
