Malaysia-based LintraMax has recently announced significant upgrades to its flagship cloud platform Quatro that brought a range of AI-powered features aimed at transforming how oil palm plantations and mills handle productivity, decision-making, and operational intelligence.
The centerpiece of the AI upgrade is definitely the use of agentic AI backed by LLMs that helps its users to engage directly with operational data using natural language. This means managers can ask questions like “How did my crop yield perform this quarter?” and instantly receive data-backed insights, complete with charts and reports. The feature also supports generating an Executive Insights report, helping plantation owners identify trends, inefficiencies, and business opportunities at a glance.
For on-site operations, Quarto now supports an FFB recognition function that uses mobile phone cameras to automatically count harvested Fresh Fruit Bunches (FFB). LintraMax plans to expand this feature soon to include crop quality assessment, a crucial determinant of oil yield and profitability.
Supporting these AI tools is Quarto’s integration of IoT sensors within palm oil mills, which allows 24-hour machinery monitoring. The system can automatically alert engineers to irregularities, reducing manual inspections while improving safety and efficiency.
Since its launch in 2016, Quarto has become Southeast Asia’s leading cloud-based plantation management system, with users across Malaysia and Indonesia. Meanwhile, LintraMax will showcase the enhanced Quarto at Hall 5 during PIPOC 2025, happening from November 18 to 20 at KLCC.
