The paperwork problem in production agriculture is always the same shape. Something is recorded in the block or the cellar, on paper or in a message, and someone types it into a spreadsheet in the evening. The record is late, incomplete and impossible to audit, and everyone knows it. That gap is where an app actually pays for itself.
The requirement is the process
Nobody here needs a new business model. They need the existing one recorded properly: block records, spray and irrigation logs, harvest intake, cellar movements, maintenance and inspection reports, with a photograph and a timestamp that hold up when a certification body asks. Getting that right means understanding the sequence people actually follow, not the one written in a manual.
Offline is the default, not a feature
There is no signal in the middle of a block and often none in the cellar. An app for this work captures data without a connection and reconciles it cleanly when one returns, without duplicates and without silently losing an entry. Building that in from the start costs almost nothing; adding it to a live product is a rebuild.
It has to talk to what you run
The hard part is rarely the screen. It is the interface to the production, stock or accounting system already in place. That gets clarified before anything is built and priced into the fixed price. A polished app that nobody uses because the data does not arrive is the most common failure in this category.
The deal
- First Version (MVP) from $27,800, market-ready app for iPhone and Android from $83,300
- Interfaces to existing systems clarified before the build
- Offline capture with clean reconciliation
- Fixed price and scope in writing before the first line of code
- Full handover of code, cloud accounts and documentation
A worked example: apps for field documentation.
