Platform
Who the platform serves, and how far each is actually built
Eleven kinds of party touch an agricultural value chain. We serve some of them today, some partially, and some not at all. This page says which is which, because the alternative is eleven pages that each imply a finished product.
01
The map, with status
Status is not a roadmap promise. “Served” means the surfaces exist and are server-backed. “Partial” means some of it runs in a browser and would be lost with the laptop, so it may not be scoped into a contract. “Not yet” means we have built nothing and will say so rather than take the meeting under a different description.
| Party | What they need from the record |
|---|---|
| Aggregator or processor running a scheme | Advance, delivery, netting and settlement as one ledger — Served |
| Exporter or packhouse | Application records and interval gates — Served. Lot custody — Partial: it syncs across handsets, but through an untyped store with no custody check, no code uniqueness and no void history. The audit pack — Partial: the evidence pack has no server home at all |
| Producer | A grower who holds their own tenant — Served, sponsored or not: they sign in, run their workspace, and accept or decline their own programme invitations. A grower who exists only as a row in a scheme's register — Not yet: no login attaches to that row, so the scheme acts on their instruction |
| Programme or donor-funded scheme | That the money reached producers — Served. The voucher and MRV registers that evidence rather than assert it — Partial: one device's view |
| Lender or guarantee provider | Which borrower is going wrong, on what evidence — Partial |
| Capital partner holding a book | A portfolio view across investees under mandate — Partial, browser-local |
| Input supplier or distributor | The recommendation as a record, the advisor register and the farm's consent mandate — Served: released and server-backed, the farm grants and narrows, the supplier reads within scope and writes nothing, and every cross-tenant read lands on the farm's own audit trail. The supplier's own console — Partial: a channel tenant signs in and arrives at a farm workspace, so the view across an advisor network is not yet a surface. The withdrawal query — Served on the farm side, and it is what a supplier would sign in for |
| Buyer or retailer | Origin and practice for a consignment they are selling on — Partial |
| Certification body | Evidence in the shape their standard asks for — Not yet, we produce it, they consume it |
| Insurer | Exposure and loss against a verified record — Not yet |
| Regulator or competent authority | Statutory records in the instrument's own form — Not yet |

Why this is one page and not eleven
An industry page per party is the standard move and we are not making it. With no nameable customers, eleven pages would be the same paragraph re-nouned eleven times, and a taxonomy is only credible when every cell in it is full.
Ten thin pages read smaller than one honest page. When there is a customer in a segment and something specific to say about it, that segment earns a page of its own.
