About Us…
Livestock businesses operate in unpredictable conditions. Weather shifts. Markets move. Costs rise and fall.
But business performance doesn’t have to move the same way.
The strongest livestock businesses aren’t the ones relying on gut-feel and assumptions.
They’re the ones making better decisions, based on what’s actually happening in their business, animal by animal, over time.
But with data capture happening under pressure in the yards; too often it’s inconsistent and inaccurate.
Information is stored for compliance purposes, but not trusted to support judgement calls. Insight arrives too late — or not at all.
Sapien exists to change that.
Sapien helps maximise your productivity by turning accurate animal data into insight you can actually use to make better decisions in the moment, and for the future.
We’re built to work in real operating conditions — in the yards and on the ground — not just behind the desk. It means systems that are simple to use, flexible enough to fit different
businesses, and deliver insight to support decisions when they matter most, not when it’s too late.
Sapien began more than 20 years ago in the yards, when our founder Rob was asked by his father, a livestock producer, to help capture individual animal data more easily and reliably, so it
could be used to make better calls. With no practical tools available, Rob taught himself to code and built a system that worked in real farming conditions. That system became the foundation
of Sapien.
Today, Sapien is shaped by decades of experience across farming, consulting and software development. We work closely with livestock businesses to ensure data is captured accurately,
insights stay relevant, and our system evolves in response to the needs of the people who rely on it. We’re built for livestock decision-making, not just record keeping.
Sapien.
Better livestock decisions.
