AgAnswers.

The latest improvements. The people behind them.

Always growing.

Easier tickets, clearer plans

  • Log a load without setting up every list first

    Improved

    Type a driver, crop, bin, or field directly when adding a scale ticket, or leave those details blank. Gross and tare weights are all you need to save a ticket; your saved lists are still there as suggestions.

  • A heads-up before your free beta ends

    Improved

    Farms with a dated free beta receive reminders on the web before it ends. Billing shows the end date and, after choosing a deferred plan, the first charge date; the ended screen explains how to resume access and confirms your records are still there.

  • Find a field’s loads by the names you use

    Improved

    Ticket searches and totals recognize a field’s recorded aliases and linked John Deere name, helping bring its loads together. Ambiguous names stay separate instead of assigning a load to the wrong field.

    Shipped by AidanWeb

More context. Less waiting around.

  • Bring your files together in one upload

    Improved

    Upload a ZIP of PDFs, images, and audio from chat or Files. AgAnswers recognizes the documents inside, shows their progress, and prepares them for your questions. You can also select a larger batch without splitting it into groups of ten.

    Shipped by AidanWeb
  • See the work behind your answer

    Improved

    Longer questions now show the current step and elapsed time, so a busy assistant doesn’t look frozen. Steps using John Deere data carry its mark, making it easier to see where an answer is coming from.

A smoother day on the farm

  • Your files, without the wait

    Improved

    Files opens on the documents added by your farm, without waiting for every generated view to load. Choose “Made for you” when you want those views, or “All” to see both; switching between them keeps what’s already loaded.

    Shipped by AidanWeb
  • Switch farms from one simple menu

    Improved

    Open the farm name to switch farms, accept an invitation, or create a new farm. Everything lives in one dropdown, with your current farm clearly marked.

    Shipped by AidanWeb
  • The controls you need stay in sight

    Improved

    The sidebar’s collapse control and chat menus are always visible. Fold Today, Yesterday, or Older to tidy up your conversations; a small indicator still lets you know when something inside needs your attention.

    Shipped by AidanWeb
  • More useful field and equipment records

    Improved

    See where record information came from, filter fields by their latest recorded crop, and reach a field from its tickets. Lease lists put approaching end dates first, and ticket lists can be edited from Tickets.

    Shipped by AidanWeb
  • Spot the conversations that need you

    Improved

    Unread and attention markers make it easier to find a reply you have not opened or a conversation waiting for your next step.

    Shipped by AidanWeb
  • Keep your workspace preferences and accounts straight

    Improved

    Theme and layout preferences follow your account on the web. Add or switch signed-in accounts from the person menu, with unsent chat drafts kept for accounts that remain signed in.

    Shipped by AidanWeb

Answers from the records you can use

  • Ask from the chat you are already in

    Improved

    AgAnswers can read the records your role allows without making you switch chat modes. New records still use the chat’s privacy setting, and the assistant asks before saving information from a more private record into a less private chat.

    Shipped by GeneWeb

Settings, one thing at a time

  • Open just the settings you need

    Improved

    Settings now shows one section at a time and loads it when you open it. Switch sections without losing a half-written prompt or an upload in progress, and use your browser’s Back button to retrace your steps.

    Shipped by GeneWeb
  • Change document privacy with the right role

    Improved

    People whose farm role allows them to change documents can also move those documents between privacy levels they can access. Clear results explain when a change could not be completed.

A better way to share files in chat

  • See your photos as soon as you pick them

    Improved

    Image previews appear immediately in the composer, with upload progress alongside them. Other files show their name, type, and status, and you can remove an attachment while it’s still uploading.

    Shipped by AidanWeb

An easier prescription review

  • Edit and confirm from the card

    Improved

    Review imagery dates, adjust exact rates, and create the confirmed file directly from the prescription card. Boundary previews now preserve holes in the field outline.

    Shipped by AidanWeb

From prescription to Operations Center

  • Find records and tables in one menu

    Improved

    Records, Datasets, Record Sets, and the Viewer are grouped in the dashboard section menu, with the destinations your farm has available.

    Shipped by AndrewWeb

Review a field prescription in chat

  • Keep the settings for each field

    Improved

    On the web, inspect imagery thumbnails, change the dates, and edit three to five zones with exact rates and units. Each field keeps its saved settings, so moving through several field drafts does not mean starting over.

    Shipped by AidanWeb

Less duplicate work with your files

  • Reuse a file you have already uploaded

    Improved

    Repeated uploads can reuse the existing document instead of creating another library record. Removing a chat attachment leaves shared files intact, and a deleted file’s name remains visible in old messages.

    Shipped by GeneWeb

Manage your plan and welcome your crew

  • Start an invited beta farm without a payment step

    Improved

    Farmers marked for beta access now receive that access when they create an operation, without waiting for a separate manual activation.

    Shipped by AidanWeb

Files that stay with the work

  • Send a file on its own

    Improved

    Attach a file and send it without typing a message. You can send while the upload finishes, with a clear notice if the file needs to be uploaded again.

    Shipped by AidanWeb

Your John Deere data, in view

  • Start with your operation name

    Improved

    Setup chooses an app address from your operation name and handles name clashes for you. Connecting John Deere returns you to setup so you can keep going.

    Shipped by AidanWeb
  • Better spelling for your farm names

    Improved

    Dictation now uses names already recorded for your operation to help recognize fields, equipment, people, and other farm terms.

    Shipped by AidanWeb

Connect John Deere during setup

  • Connect John Deere during setup

    Improved

    A dedicated setup step helps you connect John Deere. The assistant also recognizes when access has been revoked instead of reporting the connection as active.

    Shipped by AidanWeb

Hear answers sooner and add details as you go

  • Listen while the answer arrives

    Improved

    Turn on spoken replies to hear the assistant as it responds. Pause, resume, skip ahead, or replay the finished answer.

    Shipped by AidanWeb
  • Review tickets comfortably on a phone

    Improved

    The web ticket dashboard now uses readable cards on small screens, with filters for date, field, crop, driver, and bin, plus paging through older loads.

    Shipped by GeneWeb

A clearer view of grain and farm records

  • Know what is in each bin

    Improved

    Bin totals and fill percentages now reflect the grain currently in storage. Admins can mark a bin emptied while keeping the original load tickets on record.

    Shipped by AndrewWeb
  • Keep records beside your conversation

    Improved

    Open the dashboard, map, and records beside chat, or expand them to fill the screen when you need more room.

    Shipped by AidanWeb

Track grain tickets and simplify imports

  • One map-file upload flow

    Improved

    Administrators can upload a GeoJSON or zipped shapefile from Chat, Records, Settings, or the map. Review whether it contains operational boundaries or FSA data before finishing the import.

    Shipped by AidanWeb
  • Keep tasks on your farm’s time

    Improved

    Administrators can set a workspace timezone. Task entry, displayed times, reminders, and time references in chat use that setting consistently.

    Shipped by AidanWeb
  • Connect and find your way from chat

    Improved

    A John Deere connection card can appear directly in a conversation, and map help can take you to the import controls.

    Shipped by AidanWeb

FSA maps, reports, and easier downloads

  • Work through multi-page FSA reports

    Improved

    AgAnswers can annotate planting maps and prepare reports across multiple pages, using field geometry, John Deere activity, and your records. It keeps track of progress so work can resume and every page is accounted for before the final PDF.

    Shipped by AidanWeb
  • Download records with useful filenames

    Improved

    Download files and generated reports from a row, preview, or multi-selection. Uploaded files keep their original names, and administrators get clearer confirmation before removing records.

    Shipped by AidanWeb
  • Keep long messages easy to scan

    Improved

    Long questions collapse to a short preview. Open the full message whenever you need to read or copy it.

    Shipped by AidanWeb

Faster chats and smoother team invites

  • Open long conversations faster

    Improved

    Chat opens at the newest messages and loads older history as you scroll up. New questions stay in view while the answer arrives.

    Shipped by AidanWeb

Clearer tasks and safer boundary imports

  • Review boundary conflicts before saving

    Improved

    When an imported boundary matches an existing field with a different name, choose an alias, rename it, or keep the existing name. Reimporting a file updates matching boundaries without duplicating them.

    Shipped by AidanWeb

The AgAnswers beta begins

  • A clearer field map

    Improved

    Expand the map to full screen, see field names directly on the map, and use the redesigned field list to find, inspect, and manage boundaries.

    Shipped by AidanWeb

Better, one update at a time.
