The platform development started in 2016 and already in mid-2017 the first grain lots were transported in the Southern Federal District. In 2017, Smartseeds won Vnesheconombank's Development Award contest in the Best Digital Economy Project category. In 2020, Smartseeds entered into strategic partnership with Demetra-Holding, which made it possible to integrate a number of services into the logistics and target Smartseeds' strategic development towards a holistic ecosystem for all participants of the agricultural transportation market.
More than 1 million tons of grain were shipped using the platform in 2022. In 2023, Smartseeds signed a cooperation agreement with the Ministry of Agriculture of the Krasnodar region and became a strategic partner of the National Mercantile Exchange (NAMEX) to support grain shipments by road. In 2024, the Smartseeds platform was ranked among the top three largest digital freight forwarders in Russia, according to Kept, the audit firm (ex-KPMG).
