SilkAI connects Central Asian agricultural producers directly to verified international buyers using AI. Eliminate the middlemen. Close the price gap. Keep your margin.
"A farmer in Mary, Turkmenistan earns $0.28/kg for export-grade peanuts. The same cargo lands in Hamburg at $1.40. The 78% gap is not about quality. It is about access."
Central Asia sits at the geographic heart of the world's oldest trade network. The Silk Road once made this region the switchboard of global commerce. Today, 180,000 smallholder producers operate in near-total market opacity — no pricing data, no verified buyer networks, no export documentation support.
Intermediaries exploit this information gap, capturing 55–70% of the margins that belong to the people who grew the crop.

We're rebuilding the connection — this time with AI, in your language, on your phone.
Upload crop details, quality grade, and volume via our mobile app — in Turkmen, Russian, Uzbek, or English. AI verifies and converts your listing to international grade standards instantly.
Our AI surfaces verified global buyers filtered by your crop, quantity, and delivery window. Review buyer ratings, trade history, and offer prices before you respond.
Negotiate in your language. Auto-generate export contracts, phytosanitary certificates, and customs documents. Payment escrow protects both sides. You ship. You get paid. Done.
Our engine learns your crop profile and surfaces only buyers with verified trade histories. Match rate 3× higher than cold outreach via standard trade directories.
Live commodity feeds from 12 major exchanges. Know your crop's global price before you quote locally. 15-minute refresh. Daily SMS digest for low-connectivity users.
One-click generation of export contracts, phytosanitary certificate drafts, and customs declarations. Supporting key import markets including EU, UK, GCC, China, and South Asia. AI-reviewed before submission; independent legal review recommended before signing.
Full support in Turkmen, Russian, Uzbek, Kazakh, and English. AI translates all buyer-seller communications in real time with domain-specific agricultural vocabulary.
No long-term contracts. Cancel any time. Every plan includes onboarding support.
For individual farmers getting started with direct trade.
For serious producers trading internationally, regularly.
For cooperatives and aggregators managing multiple farms.
I sold my sesame harvest to a buyer in Düsseldorf at 3.8× my previous price. SilkAI handled the translation, the contract, and the documentation. Payment arrived in 12 days.
We manage 40 member farms. The cooperative dashboard shows every buyer, every live price, every open contract in real time. Five export deals we could never have found otherwise.
Finally, a platform built for how we actually work — on our phones, in our language, for our crops. The price alerts alone changed how I negotiate with every buyer, local or international.
