About Scanners Tally

Scanners Tally is a purpose-built companion app for professional livestock scanners. Long days, variable weather, patchy coverage, and the need for accurate tallies inspired us to build a tool that keeps things simple while saving time.

Instead of wrangling notebooks or spreadsheets after a job, Scanners Tally lets you capture results as you go. At the end of the run you have clean tallies, expected lambing & calving numbers, and a shareable summary for the farmer.

Principles

Who it's for

Professional livestock scanners looking to streamline their workflow and deliver value-added insights; and farmers wanting quick clarity after scanning day.

Who we are

Hamish is a software engineer with 15 years experience. He went to Canterbury University and studied Chemical Engineering before pivoting into software. He's worked on many types of cloud based software solutions spanning different technology stacks across New Zealand, Australia, and the United Kingdom.

James is a professional livestock scanner from New Zealand with a passion for technology and improving farm productivity. Studying Agriculture at Lincoln University, he has a deep understanding of the challenges faced by farmers and scanners alike.

Hamish and James grew up in the same small rural town on the East Coast of New Zealand. We built Scanners Tally to solve our own challenges in the yards and help fellow scanners work smarter, and more accurately.
