We Get It β Harvest Chaos is Real
Managing seasonal crews with spreadsheets and WhatsApp groups? There's a better way.
The Old Way Doesn't Scale
- Manual spreadsheets that crash during peak harvest
- Lost timesheets costing you thousands in disputes
- Visa expiry panics during critical picking windows
- Backpacker no-shows with no visibility until dawn
- Audit anxiety from incomplete compliance trails
Harvest Season, Handled
- A shared view of recorded crew assignments
- Recorded check-ins help teams review attendance questions
- Visa expiry tracking and alerts
- Crew check-in records with available location evidence
- NZ RSE attendance references; remuneration reviewed separately

Everything You Need for Kiwifruit Success
Purpose-built tools for NZ kiwifruit orchards and packhouse operations
Seasonal Crew Management
Keep recorded crew, skills, availability and visa information in one place for harvest, pruning and packing. Employers retain responsibility for employment and remuneration records.
Check-in Location Evidence
Review recorded check-in and check-out information with available location evidence across your kiwifruit blocks and packhouse floors.
Secure In-App Messaging
Communicate without sharing personal numbers β critical for managing international crews and protecting privacy.
Payment Tools
Review recorded earnings and payment events. A payment to a labour provider does not establish payment of its employees.
NZ Visa Records
Review stored expiry dates and optional provider responses. Employers must check work rights, job conditions and the records needed for their obligations.
Mobile-First Design
Beautiful mobile experience built for the orchard. Add to your home screen on iOS and Android β managers can run operations from an iPad in the canopy or packhouse floor.
Data Handling Review
Before rollout, confirm hosting, access and retention arrangements for your organisation and its workforce records.
RSE & WHV Workflows
Purpose-built for Recognised Seasonal Employer scheme and Working Holiday Visa holder management.

Help for Horticulture & Crops
Grower and Labour Contractor
Questions for a Grower and a Labour Contractor.
- What does a Grower do here?
- A grower posts the block, the start time, and the crew they need. That post is the offer on the Horticulture & Crops marketplace.
- What does a Labour Contractor do here?
- A labour contractor brings pickers and packhouse crews to that job. They accept the job before people travel.
- Where do time and pay live?
- On the job both sides agreed. Hours, compliance, and pay stay with that horticulture & crops job, not in a separate spreadsheet.
