Helios AI
Helios AI is an agricultural-intelligence software company that helps food, commodity, and procurement teams see supply shocks before they happen. Its platform aggregates hundreds of billions of climate and economic data points to forecast prices, weather risk, and supply disruptions for 50+ agricultural commodities across most of the world's export-growing districts, up to a year in advance. Founded in 2022 by Francisco Martin-Rayo and Eden Canlilar, the company sells tools like CommodiTrack, the Helios Horizon AI co-pilot, and Supply Chain Climate Audits to CPG manufacturers, traders, and Fortune 100 buyers.
Francisco Martin-Rayo
Francisco Martin-Rayo is the co-founder and CEO of Helios AI, a climate-risk and commodity-price platform that helps agri-food companies see supply shocks before they hit. A former Mexican-avocado trader who became a BCG principal and AI-fintech executive, he teamed up with ex-Google engineer Eden Canlilar in late 2022 to build an AI that scrapes 250,000 news sources every 15 minutes, runs custom models for dozens of crops, and tells procurement teams when, how much, and where to buy across roughly 90 countries.
