“Until we have Star Trek transporters, we’re going to have to find a new way to shrink time and space, to stretch brains and not bodies, and to be on the farm without being on the farm,” explains Saik. “AGvisorPRO connects agriculture in a brand new way.”
AGvisorPRO’s connectivity matrix pairs information seekers – say a farmer wondering how to upload maps into a monitor – with advice providers, whether they are a farmer, agronomist or industry expert.
“Every one of these intersection points on this connectivity matrix [above] is a value proposition connecting the seeker to the advisor,” said Saik.
So, how does AGvisorPRO work? It all starts with a question.
After creating a free account, a farmer seeking information inputs a question/topic into the system. A matching algorithm provides the number of experts that are available to answer the question.
When an expert is selected, AGvisorPRO connects the seeker with the provider via audio. Once connected, users can toggle between audio and video, as well as share high resolution pictures.
A key feature of this platform is that the entire session is archived. Farmers can go back into the system to review the video or share with others within the operation.
If advice given is being monetized, a transaction will take place within the application.
After each session, the information seeker will rate the advice provider, much like how you would rate an Uber driver.
