Standardize grading across facilities, reduce training requirements, and generate documented results that can be reviewed, shared, and verified.
Grading decisions influence grower payments, processing quality, inventory management, and customer confidence — yet most organizations rely on processes that vary between locations, shifts, and operators.
The Grader's Challenge
Even highly experienced graders can reach different conclusions when evaluating the same sample. Staff turnover compounds the problem — the expertise of your best grader is difficult to transfer and scale up, leaving gaps in consistency.
When grading decisions are questioned by growers or customers, organizations often lack the documented evidence to support or explain those decisions with confidence.
The result is inconsistency, training challenges, documentation gaps, and difficult conversations at the worst possible times.
Organizations need a grading process that delivers repeatable results while maintaining the transparency and documentation to support every decision made.
Inconsistent grading between locations
Same crop, different facility, different resultInconsistent grading between operators
Individual interpretation creates variabilityTraining challenges
Difficult to transfer grading knowledge to new staffDocumentation limitations
No visual record to support grading decisionsLack of transparency
Decisions difficult to explain or verify after the factMaintaining grading standards
Standards drift over time without enforcement mechanisms
Your experienced graders define the standard. CerePulse AutoGrader captures that expertise and applies it consistently — across every sample, shift, and location.
CerePulse AutoGrader is a bench-top grain grading platform designed for grain elevators, pulse processors, seed companies, and quality assurance teams.
Using advanced imaging and configurable grading models, it evaluates each grain sample against your defined methodology — then provides visual documentation of every identified defect.
Apply the same grading methodology across facilities, shifts, and operators. Maintain grading standards throughout your organization regardless of who is running the analysis.
Review identified defects through image records that provide transparency and confidence in every grading decision. See exactly what was found, and why.
Help new operators become productive more quickly. A standardized grading process reduces the institutional knowledge burden on experienced staff.
Generate electronic grading records that can be stored, reviewed, analyzed, and shared — supporting traceability, reporting, and dispute resolution.
Grading models can be adjusted year-to-year to align with changing crop conditions, customer specifications, and evolving industry requirements — without retraining staff.
Developed since 2018 and deployed operationally since 2022 across commercial grain operations in Canada. Built through years of real-world use, continuous refinement, and thousands of analyzed samples.
Traditional grading relies on an individual's interpretation. CerePulse adds a layer of documented confidence — visual evidence supporting every grading decision that can be reviewed, shared, and verified.

Addressing the trust question directly. CerePulse doesn't replace the grader's judgment — it standardizes the methodology and documents the evidence. Every classification is backed by an image record that any team member, manager, or customer can review and verify. The grading process becomes transparent, not just the result.
CerePulse AutoGrader captures your experienced graders' expertise and applies it consistently — across every sample, every shift, every location.
Your experienced grader works with CerePulse to establish what good looks like — setting thresholds and defect categories based on your specific requirements.
Dual-camera imaging analyzes each seed individually. The configured grading model classifies defects and sorts rejects — applying your standard with machine consistency.
Every sample at every location is graded to the same standard — with a visual evidence report generated and stored for every run, building a fully auditable record.

Paddle sorting mechanism — defects physically directed to reject bin
Additional grading models and defect categories can be configured as requirements evolve.
Additional crop support available through configurable grading models.
Every grading run is logged with full detail — timestamps, operator, sample type, defect percentages, and weights — creating an auditable history across all locations.
Standardize grading across multiple locations. Reduce variability between operators and shifts. Generate documented records that support grower conversations and internal quality reporting.
Gain greater visibility into incoming product quality and grading trends. Apply consistent standards across receiving operations to support procurement and customer specifications.
Apply repeatable grading standards across programs and locations. Maintain documentation to support seed quality programs and regulatory reporting requirements.
Support traceability, internal reporting, and continuous improvement. Build an auditable grading record that demonstrates consistency and supports organizational accountability.
