BinSentry names Justin Wong Vice President of Corporate Development. August 25, 2026 BinSentry has announced the appointment of Justin Wong as Vice President of Corporate Development, adding an experienced ag-tech and corporate finance executive to its leadership team as the company continues its global expansion. In the new role, Wong will lead strategic initiatives supporting BinSentry's growth, including corporate strategy, business development, partnerships, mergers and acquisitions, and capital planning. BinSentry provides AI-driven feed management technology for animal agriculture, using monitoring and data tools to help livestock and poultry operations improve visibility into feed inventories and management. Wong brings more than 14 years of experience spanning ag-tech, corporate finance, mergers and acquisitions, and business growth. "BinSentry is one of the fastest growing ag-tech companies in the world, and I'm very excited to be coming on board to build a team to accelerate BinSentry's next stage of growth," Wong said. A finance graduate of the University of Minnesota, Wong began his career in investment banking at Piper Jaffray, advising companies across agriculture, biologicals, renewable energy and industrial markets. Prior to joining BinSentry, Wong spent nearly a decade at Indigo Ag, where he led corporate development and strategic finance initiatives. During his tenure, he was responsible for more than $975 million in equity and debt financings and led the execution of acquisitions, carve-outs, strategic partnerships and new business creation. BinSentry CEO Ben Allen said the appointment comes as the company moves into its next stage of development. "I'm proud to welcome Justin to the leadership team at a very important moment in BinSentry's trajectory," Allen said. "We've made the transition from innovative startup to a global enterprise with the technology, the infrastructure and the resources to work at scale with some of the world's biggest companies. Justin will play a key role in developing our global strategy to keep that momentum going and take BinSentry to the next level." The appointment strengthens BinSentry's leadership team as the company continues to expand the use of technology and data-driven feed management across global animal agriculture.
BinSentry and Distynct sign MOU on bin and barn monitoring. Partners will bring real-time feed inventory and environmental monitoring to supply chains and animal operations. August 18, 2026 BinSentry Inc., a global leader in AI-powered animal feed inventory management technologies, and Distynct Corp., an innovative provider of smart alarm systems for livestock barns, have signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) to work together as preferred partners to provide protein producers and integrators with the best available technologies for real-time visibility and 24/7 monitoring of livestock barns, feed bins and supply chains. The MOU enables the companies to work together as non-exclusive preferred partners so customers can easily pair Distynct's and BinSentry's technologies to get a complete picture of conditions inside their barns and feed systems. "BinSentry and Distynct offer complementary solutions that can help protein producers make the critical leap from outdated manual systems to automated, data-based decision-making and efficiency," said BinSentry chief executive officer Ben Allen. "BinSentry will focus on the movement and consumption of feed - the most expensive part of raising animals - while Distynct provides around-the-clock environmental monitoring inside the barn. Working together as preferred partners allows animal producers to get the best technology available today from the best providers, knowing that data integration can be managed and trusted." BinSentry sensors and software provide feed mills and producers with real-time visibility into feed inventories and consumption, helping reduce waste, improve efficiency and strengthen supply chain resilience at scale. The platform uses best-in-class optical sensors and AI-powered algorithms to create detailed 3D images of the surface from any angle inside a farm feed bin or ingredient bin at a mill. Real-time data from the bins is fed into user-friendly dashboards that can be accessed from any device, anywhere, at any time. Distynct's proprietary smart alarm and monitoring system is reliable and user friendly. It was developed specifically for livestock and poultry production barns, providing remote monitoring of water, temperature, power and other environmental conditions 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year. The system integrates easily with existing on-farm infrastructure to give producers the tools they need to efficiently and proactively manage their entire operation, whether they have two sites or 200. "Distynct was developed as an open platform to work with other technologies and answer critical questions about conditions inside animal barns, then put that information at producers' fingertips, anywhere, anytime," said Distynct founder and CEO BJ Brugman. "This MOU will allow our customers to pair systems from two of the most reliable and trusted names in live animal production for unparalleled, real-time visibility and data-based management from barn to feed bin to feed mill." BinSentry provides customers with enhanced forecasting and operational capabilities, with technology solutions for the animal feed supply chain that increase efficiency, reduce costs, enhance profitability and improve safety. Today, BinSentry is monitoring over 65,000 assets daily across North America and South America. Distynct is a pioneering provider of smart alarm systems for livestock barns, offering barn owners simple yet powerful tools to monitor barn conditions remotely.

BinSentry sues BarnTools over feed bin monitoring technology. While BinSentry alleges willful infringement of its patented feed-bin monitoring system, BarnTools asserts the lawsuit is entirely without merit and vows to defend its independent technology. August 04, 2026 01:08 PM BinSentry Inc. has filed a patent infringement lawsuit against BarnTools, LLC in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Iowa. The lawsuit filed by BinSentry, an agricultural technology company that develops agricultural feed bin level monitoring equipment, alleges that BarnTools infringes a BinSentry patent (U.S. Patent No. 12,359,958 titled "Bin Level Monitoring System") issued on July 15, 2025, through its BinTalk products, including BinTalk and BinTalk Pro products. "The patent covers, among other things, a bin level monitoring system that includes a sensor with mounting bracket, a transmitter, a circuit board, an enclosure, and a transmitter for collecting, processing, and transmitting feed-bin level data," BinSentry said in a statement issued on Aug. 4. Among other things, the complaint alleges that BarnTools' own patent filings cited BinSentry's published patent materials related to the asserted technologies, and that despite BarnTools' knowledge of BinSentry's then-pending patent application, BarnTools nevertheless continued to develop and market products that allegedly infringe BinSentry's patent rights. "BinSentry built a successful business model on a foundation of cutting-edge science and scalable proprietary technology that delivers clear, quantifiable value to our customers," says BinSentry CEO Ben Allen. "Our technology platform is helping major protein producers and feed millers transition from outdated, inefficient manual systems to automated, real-time feed inventory management that is more efficient, more profitable, safer and more sustainable. This lawsuit is about protecting BinSentry's innovation, standing up for our customers, employees, and investors, and supporting a fair and competitive marketplace." BarnTools denies claims in BinSentry feed-bin sensor patent lawsuit. BarnTools believes these claims are without merit, says Michael Hansen, CEO of BarnTools. "Our technology was independently developed, and we have full confidence that the legal process will confirm our position," Hansen says. "BarnTools has earned its market leadership by solving real problems for livestock producers and advancing an industry that is ready for better technology. We will vigorously defend our innovations, but we will not allow unfounded litigation from a competitor to distract us from our mission, our customers, or the work ahead." BarnTools respects intellectual property rights and takes its obligations seriously, the company said in a statement to Farm Journal's PORK. "Since becoming aware of BinSentry's allegations, we have obtained a strong non-infringement opinion from a nationally recognized patent law firm confirming our position," Hansen says. "Competitors can choose to litigate. BarnTools will continue to innovate." BinSentry has demanded a jury trial. The company is seeking monetary damages for lost sales and the unauthorized use of its patented technology, as well as an injunction to prevent BarnTools from continuing to manufacture, market, import or sell the accused BinTalk systems and related software.
