After clear encouragement from important customers, we have been working for a long time to deliver a precision product for rainbow trout. Now, the solution is finally ready for use.


“This product is a result of the industry’s own voices. The demand from trout producers has been clear, and we have carefully listened to their needs. Norwegian producers account for 90% of consumption in Europe, making them key providers of quality food. Although the rainbow trout is a robust species, biological challenges can arise during production. Our task is to provide our customers with precise insights into the fish’s status and development, so that all decisions can be made based on solid information.” says CEO at OptoScale, Sven Kolstø.


Easy to Use

Another person who is very pleased with this new initiative is CTO, Ragnhild Skjetne Hollup: “At OptoScale, we have placed great emphasis on creating something that is easy to use. Whether you are in the office or by the pen, you should be able to find the information you need with just a few clicks, exactly when you need it. With graphs and trends, you can easily keep track of the fish’s development at all times of the day.”

Driven by Customer Needs

Ragnhild continues: “We stand out in the way we launch new products. While many tech companies rush to launch, we have chosen a different path—a path where our customers play a central role. We take the time to listen carefully to the customers’ challenges before we develop the solution. We may not always be the first to launch, but we launch with confidence and quality.”

Ready to use

“We have launched a solution that is well-tested and well-received by our customers. If you, as a rainbow trout producer, want to stay ahead of the challenges that may arise, you know who to call,” says Sven with a smile.
