Farmers and ranchers can benefit from new software that’s focused on bookkeeping

The fields are just a small part of the farming equation, as bookkeeping is just as vital. It is why one group created Ambrook, software that allows farmers to focus on more jobs outside the office.

“What enabled us to build was something that kept the simple simple, while making the complex possible. And so we have producers who come to us who really just need to be able to have more time in their day. We’ve cut their bookkeeping by more than half. We build up workflows that are for folks who spend more time in the field than in the office. And so you can do all of your bookkeeping and payments on a mobile app. Which is pretty unusual for bookkeeping software. We see more than 50% of our customers spend the majority of their time on our mobile app. So that’s one piece. So it’s, if you just wanna do tax prep, replace the shoebox of receipts. You take it to your accountant. We have a really great AI receipt capture that makes that really easy to categorize all the way to the folks who are using spreadsheets not as a ledger, but to do complex analysis,” said Mackenzie Burnett.

Burnett tells aginfo.net that this project has been years in the making, and the team worked with a diverse group of farmers.
