Who we are

SeedSoft-Who-we-are

At Tellus Mater, we are passionate about empowering seed companies with innovative tools designed specifically for their unique challenges. Our flagship product, SeedSoft, is the result of over a decade of expertise in the seed industry and a commitment to improving how businesses manage their product portfolios and field trials.

SeedSoft was born out of real-world needs. In 2011, our co-founder Pascal realized the need for a digital solution to organize and track the vast number of trials across Africa. Over the years, this initial tool evolved into a comprehensive, flexible platform tailored to the needs of Seed companies around the globe.

The Beginning: A Standalone Seeds Variety Catalogue
Pascal recognized the need for a digital solution and developed the first version of a Seeds Variety Catalogue. This standalone database was designed to support the Africa Middle East (AME) team of Syngenta Vegetables, improving access to variety information.

Transformation into a Web-Based Platform
Maciej joined the team and led a complete overhaul of the system. The transition to a web application introduced key features such as trialing modules, workflows, pricing, and forecasting. The platform was adopted by the entire AME Vegetables team, resulting in:
• 100+ active users
• 400+ trials conducted yearly
• 1,000 varieties managed in the catalogue
• Over $1M in annual savings through optimized trial management, pricing policy enforcement, and streamlined processes

SeedSoft: A Comprehensive Business Management Platform
Pascal initiated the development of SeedSoft as an in-house Seed Business Management Platform for Telusem. The cloud-based system integrated essential tools, including variety catalogues, trial management, pricing, life-cycle tracking, and workflows, providing a seamless digital ecosystem for seed businesses. Of course the new system is no way related to Syngenta.

Global Expansion as a SaaS Solution
SeedSoft evolved into a software-as-a-service (SaaS) platform, making its powerful features accessible to innovative seed businesses worldwide.
We've also recognized the need to provide Change Management support and thus SeedSoft is a system, a set of business processes and an implementation service.
