Who this is for

A country elevator where the same person runs the scale, buys the grain, signs the checks, and answers the phone — sometimes all before lunch.

One or two scales. One office. No IT department, no controller on staff, no five-figure software budget.

If that is your operation, this is built for you. If you run a multi-site cooperative with full-time finance staff, or you need RFID kiosks and unattended weighing today, we are probably not the right fit yet — and we will tell you so.

How it actually works

Connected, not just collected

Each stage feeds the next. Enter a delivery once and the contract balance, the producer's portal, and the site inventory all update in the same breath. Nothing gets entered twice. Storage invoices are one click per month — pick the month, the system runs them.

01 · Contract
Multiple contracts per producer, automatically tracked.
A producer might have three or four contracts open at different prices and delivery windows. The system keeps every running balance current, per producer. At delivery, pick which one the load applies to.
02 · Receive
Calculated before the truck pulls off.
Weight, moisture, drying cost, QR code — all captured from the scale and analyzer feeds. Click print and the ticket is in the producer's hand.
03 · Sell
Every haul fulfills an open sale.
Set up a sale contract with each buyer. As hauls go out, bushels move from undelivered to delivered. The dashboard surfaces what is still owed across every buyer.
04 · Ship
Hauls update three running totals.
Truck loads. Site inventory drops, the buyer's undelivered count shrinks, the haul joins the trucker's open invoice. Pay the trucker; the next haul starts a fresh invoice.
Features

From the scale to the invoice, in one place.

Corn, soybeans, wheat, milo — set up per grain, priced your way.

QR code linking to a live demo ticket in the producer portal Scan it — this is what your producers see

Producer portal

Producers scan the QR code on their ticket or log in to see their own deliveries. Fewer “what did I haul in?” calls.

  • Only their own loads, never anyone else’s
  • Turn it off per producer

Keeps weighing when the internet drops

The scale-house terminal runs the full app on site and syncs when the connection is back. Included with every paid plan.

Daily Position Report

Position by commodity over any date range. Cash grain, warehouse receipts, open storage, and elevator-owned grain — reconciled and printable.

  • Position by commodity and date range
  • Elevator-owned grain reconciled
  • Printable for state warehouse reporting

The headaches, handled

The things that usually end up on a side spreadsheet.

  • Split loads between landlord and tenant
  • Archive customers at season end
  • Every change logged, with who made it

Running at country elevators this harvest. $450 a month or $5,000 a year, everything included — see pricing.

Try it on practice customers, not your real ones.

Spin up test customers that behave exactly like real ones — deliveries, contracts, drying, storage, settlements — but never count toward your site totals. Run a full harvest through the software before you put a real producer on it.

Start 30-day trial
Included with every paid plan

A scale-house terminal that works without the internet.

When your trial converts, we ship you the terminal — pre-configured, ready to mount in the building. It runs the full Horizon Grain app right there at the site, and syncs back to your hosted account the moment you are online again.

Harvest does not stop when the internet does.

No extra charge. Hardware, setup, and the local app are all part of the paid plan.

From a customer
My kid handled the scale one morning while I was buried in a maintenance fix — applied the loads, printed the tickets. Last winter in Cabo with my family, producers wanted to sell grain, and I entered them in the app from my phone.

Frequently asked

The questions operators ask before signing up.

Honest answers. Yes, even the ones that read “not yet.”

Does Horizon Grain handle DPR, 1099s, state reports, or accounting export?

Daily Position Report — yes, by commodity and date range, printable for state warehouse reporting. 1099s, state-specific report formats, and accounting export (QuickBooks and the rest) are not built. You will keep your accountant or current tool for those.

How does my existing data come over?

You enter opening balances per producer at setup — those add into your site totals, and you are current. New deliveries, contracts, and sales go in from there. There is no automatic import from another system today. Depending on how many producers and open contracts you are carrying, plan on anywhere from a focused afternoon to several hours spread across a few days.

Can I get my data out?

If you need a specific export or report, email Horizon. Anything that makes sense for one elevator probably makes sense for the next, so the answer is usually to build it into the product rather than ship a one-off file.

What happens to my data if I cancel?

Held for twelve months after cancellation, in case you come back. We can pull what you need during that window. After twelve months, deleted permanently.

What do producers see in the portal?

Their own deliveries, anonymized. They cannot see your other producers or your contract data. You can disable the portal per producer, or producers can opt out themselves.

What happens if the internet drops at the scale house?

The local terminal keeps capturing tickets locally — producers leave, your day continues. When the connection comes back, the terminal syncs automatically. Multi-day outages handle the same way as multi-minute ones.

Will my price change later?

Not for your first 24 months. After that, your price can change only when your term renews, never mid-term. Any increase is capped at 5% per year, and we'll tell you in writing by June 1 so you can budget for the season ahead.

How much hand-holding during onboarding?

We check in a couple of times during your first two weeks of real deliveries — making sure tickets land right, drying calculations check out, settlements come out clean. After that, email when you need us.

Spend thirty days in it. See if it fits.

No credit card. No phone number. No sales call. Test customers stand in for your real producers until you are ready to switch them over.
