CenterPoint Accounting for Agriculture: Accounting: general ledger with profitability by field, crop or herd, grain-bushel/head-count/feed inventory, Schedule F mapping, farm ratios (working capital, debt-to-asset, operating expense), depreciation and land-rent tracking; cloud-hosted or local install. Labor: integrated ag payroll (Form 943, piece-work crew pay, bilingual stubs) plus Employee Portal/Online Time Clock; not a workforce-scheduling tool. Equipment: vendor integration page lists John Deere Operations Center (pulls field boundaries into Production Analysis maps) as the only equipment-brand integration. Elevator/buyer: GrainTrac integration posts settlement checks and grain-sale invoices into CenterPoint; Plaid bank feeds. Vendor terms mention 'AI Features' but no AI assistant is described on product pages. No mobile app described on vendor pages fetched.
Taranis: Taranis flies drone 'missions' (service plans of 4-6 missions/season) producing leaf-level detections of stand count, weeds, insects, disease and nutrient deficiency; broadacre satellite monitoring with weather/precipitation layers. Ag Assistant is a generative-AI tool producing zone-level agronomy recommendations and season summaries. Yield Impact (May 2026) estimates bu/ac yield loss per detected threat on enrolled corn acres. Input relevance is via recommendations sold alongside retailers' crop-protection portfolios (Syngenta partnership), not an input marketplace. iOS/Android app plus web dashboard.
