Frequently Asked Questions

Pocket Gofer helps farmers capture daily farm activities as they happen and turns them into organized, usable records

No app required. Pocket Gofer works from any web-enabled device, like texting from your phone. Our goal is to meet you where you are, not ask you to learn new tech.

Most tools ask you to sit down LATER and enter data. Pocket Gofer focuses on capturing information in the moment, when the work is happening, so records build naturally over time.

Yes. Pocket Gofer is designed to support all small farms including diversified-mixed operations, crops, livestock, pasture, processing, and more.

No. Updates are meant to be quick and easy. Short text messages, simple prompts, and eventually photos. Pocket Gofer will organize the details for you.

Anything you already track (or wish you tracked): planting, harvests, feed purchases, animal treatments, inputs, field work, sales, and general notes about what happened on the farm.

That's exactly who Pocket Gofer is for. If you can send a text, you can use Pocket Gofer.

Pocket Gofer is $24.99 per month.

We believe farm recordkeeping should be simple, and so should pricing. That's why Pocket Gofer has one straightforward monthly subscription with no complicated pricing tiers or hidden fees.

Your subscription includes text-based farm recordkeeping, weekly reports delivered to your inbox, the ability to add additional farm members, and ongoing improvements as we continue building Pocket Gofer alongside the farming community.

Before subscribing, be sure to check whether you qualify for any current promotional offers or special pricing.

Yes! We offer a free 14-day trial to anyone who books an online demo with us.

We'll walk you through how Pocket Gofer works, answer your questions, and help you get started. After your demo, you'll have 14 days to experience how easy farm recordkeeping can be with Pocket Gofer.

There's no obligation to subscribe at the end of your trial, we simply encourage you to give it a try and see if it's a good fit for your farm.

You do. Farmers always own their farm records and receive organized files they can download and keep. Pocket Gofer exists to help you manage and learn from your data, not take it away from you.

To help improve the tool and better support farmers over time, Pocket Gofer may retain older, anonymized data (more than a year old) for research and benchmarking, never tied back to you or your farm.

Your identifiable farm information is never shared or sold.

Over time, Pocket Gofer may use aggregated, de-identified data, for example, trends across regions or farm types, to develop insights that help farmers make better decisions and strengthen the broader farming community. No individual farm can be identified from this data.

You won't lose access to your information. The goal is to make sure farmers can take their records with them, not lock them in.

Yes! The best way to get started is to book a short, 30-minute online demo. We'll walk you through how Pocket Gofer works, answer your questions, and help you get set up for your free 14-day trial.

We're also working on adding the ability to purchase a subscription directly through our website. If you'd prefer to sign up online, stay tuned, that option will be available soon.

We'd love to hear from you!

Pocket Gofer is built for farmers, and your feedback helps us continue making it more useful for farms of all sizes. Whether you have an idea for a new feature, a suggestion for improvement, or simply want to share your experience, we'd be grateful to hear from you.

You can email us anytime at info@pocketgofer.com . We read every message and truly appreciate you taking the time to help us improve Pocket Gofer.

Pocket Gofer is designed to reduce stress, not create more. We know farm life is busy, and it's easy to remember something after the fact.

If you forget to record an activity, simply send Pocket Gofer a text that includes the date the activity occurred. Pocket Gofer will add the update to your activity log for the date you provide, helping you keep your records complete and accurate.

Whether it's later that day or a few days afterward, it's never too late to add an important farm activity.

Yes! This is one of the reasons Pocket Gofer is built around text messages instead of a mobile app.

If you're working in an area without cell service, your text messages will automatically queue on your phone and send the next time you reconnect to the network. That means you can record your farm activities when they happen without worrying about whether you have a signal at that exact moment.

Pocket Gofer is designed to fit the realities of farm life, including working in fields where reliable cell service isn't always available.

We recognize that AI requires energy and water resources, and we take that responsibility seriously. We designed Pocket Gofer to use AI thoughtfully, limiting unnecessary calls, batching processes efficiently, and only applying AI where it delivers real value to farmers. We believe innovation and stewardship should go hand in hand, and we welcome ongoing conversations about how to build responsibly.

We want you to feel confident giving Pocket Gofer a try.

If you cancel during your current billing month and decide Pocket Gofer isn't the right fit, we'll refund that month's subscription payment—no questions asked.

While feedback is never required, we'd truly appreciate hearing what would have made Pocket Gofer more valuable for your farm. Your ideas help us continue improving Pocket Gofer for farmers like you.

You'll also keep all of the reports Pocket Gofer has already generated and delivered to you. Those reports belong to you.

You can cancel your subscription at any time through our subscription management portal or by contacting us at info@pocketgofer.com .
