Their design looks gorgeous and serious to me. Maybe what I think does not count because I'm not a farmer. They could A/B test this with a more enterprise-y looking site, who knows.
I like their site because it looks so simple to use and shows it could be very valuable very quickly, kind of like an iPhone. I'd be surprised if they don't see some considerable adoption, esp among the newer generation of farmers.
- randomdata 14y agoI am a farmer and I think it is fine. Some of the interfaces I have seen for farm-related software are hilariously bad. The big farms already log all this information (and more) automatically, so it seems that the target market is really smaller hobby farmers where a "fun" interface probably isn't so bad anyway.
- abbasmehdi 14y agoAnd that is exactly how all great companies start (by flying under the radar until it is too late for the incumbents).
- itmag 14y agoI am a farmer This makes me curious. What brings you to HN? :)
- randomdata 14y agoI wish I had some elaborate story for you, but I'm also a software developer.
- itmag 14y agoWhich career came first?
- randomdata 14y agoI have been around the farm my whole life, but my first real job was doing design/development/general IT work in high school. I've worked in software-related roles ever since, primarily on the programming side. About four years ago I established my own farming operation. It is still small, but I'm working on slowly growing it.
