"At FarmShots, Joy built our Computer Vision systems over agricultural satellite and aerial images that allowed us to scale our company. My favorite was his model that detected live stock in drone images with 99%+ accuracy. And now with my next successful venture Gradient Health, I still counsel Joy for his ML advice."
