Text here about existing process using spreadsheets and testing taking too much time to come back with results, after the event… We are an innovative artificial intelligence startup, inspired in Cape Town and nurtured at the University of Surrey. Founded by Dr. Michael Short, a South African native, the company was born from a bold vision: to transform the biofuel industry using machine learning and AI. By combining cutting-edge technology with deep industry insight, BiofuelAI empowers biofuel producers to move beyond intuition, enabling smarter, faster decision-making to maximise output and accelerate the transition to low-carbon energy.
No extra work
Uses existing data to feed the Ai
Easy to understand
Intuitive dashboard and recommendations
Maximise output
Predict and react in real time
Whole site optimisation
Text here explaining the streamlining of site management and production, saving time, everything in one place, use on phone, tablet, desktop etc… Using Ai informed decisions to increase its commerciality and accelerate progress to NetZero. Practically that means more energy, less waste and faster more predictable returns for capital assets.
Reporting dashboard
Text here reporting valuable product in itself ‘Extra Value’. Ease of use the sort of facts and figures it returns etc…Using Ai informed decisions to increase its commerciality and accelerate progress to NetZero. Practically that means more energy, less waste and faster more predictable returns for capital assets.

Helping you make decisions easier
Text here explaining analysis using Ai provides scenarios, your choice to implement ‘Human in the loop’, what it means to your business not generic responses etc… Biogas production is largely experience driven. Yet vast amounts of data are available. We use AI to process it and enhance decision making.
Easy onboarding

Practically that means more energy, less waste and faster more predictable returns for capital assets.
Key questions answered…
No—BiofuelAi doesn’t need hardware to be plugged into your biogas plant systems. Our cloud platform is accessed through a web browser. Simply upload your existing spreadsheets and we can get you up and running. If in the future you want to upload new data automatically we can help with that.
Typically, it takes 6 weeks from sign up to go live.
- Receive historical data sets
- Configure your AI model and deploy it to the BiofuelAi platform
- Onboard and trainers users
- Go live
Most customers are onboarded within 2 weeks, depending on staff availability. Our team handles the heavy lifting—from data integration to model configuration—while working closely with the biogas plant management to ensure a smooth rollout.
BiofuelAi optimisation models begin working straight away, identifying actions that will create operational improvements—such as increased gas yield, reduced flaring, improved engine efficiency or reduced biological instability. With every new piece of information received, the models learn and optimise against your specific processes, ensuring continuous improvement.
Returns vary by plant size and feedstock recipe, but customers typically see efficiency gains of 5–15%, alongside reductions in feedstock waste and flaring. This translates into a strong ROI from the BiofuelAi platform. We’re happy to work with you to model expected benefits based on your specific plant data, feedstock and production goals.
Absolutely, we are a “human-in-the-loop” organisation. You’ll have direct access to our technical team for ongoing support, as well as an account manager who understands your operation. We’re available for regular check-ins, troubleshooting, and continuous optimisation support—so you’re never left on your own.
