Our Story

Building Grower Technology
Since 1999

Over 25 years partnering with growers, distilled into a platform built for the way growers actually work.

Who We Are

Over 25 Years Serving Growers

Innovative Technologies Group — known in the industry as Inntec — was founded in Tampa, Florida in 1995. In 1999 we turned our focus to horticulture, partnering with growers to solve the challenges unique to their operations. By 2002 that work had taken shape as PAOS — the Premier Automated Ordering System, built in Microsoft Access — which grew into the platform we now call GrowerLive.

Over the years we've partnered with growers and brokers of every scale across North America. That experience gave us something no feature list can replicate — a deep understanding of the challenges unique to this industry.

Growing operations are complex — managing inventory across locations, coordinating production, planning shipments, keeping merchandisers accountable, and making sense of mountains of data. Most general-purpose software simply wasn't designed for it. We built GrowerLive specifically to solve those problems.

GrowerLive is our cloud-first platform — customizable to fit how each grower actually operates, accessible from anywhere, and continuously improving. We launched a major new version in 2023 and are now exploring how artificial intelligence can push the industry even further.
