Terra automates the daily work of a commodity trading operation — the market read, the price, the truck, the paper, the stock, the invoice, the payment, the report — and delivers it finished, on WhatsApp, Telegram and e-mail. Powered by AI, supervised by people.
Discuss your operationBuilt and proven in one of the world's toughest grain markets.
Every trading operation carries the same daily grind: the market picture compiled before the open, prices worked out by hand, trucks phoned, papers chased, stock reconciled, invoices typed, payments prepared, reports assembled. None of it is glamorous. All of it has to be right, every day. We automate the routine jobs, check the output, and hand back the finished result — under your brand where it faces your clients.
The pre-open read, the mid-morning market update, weekly deliveries and trade flows, release alerts and expiry reminders — on your phone before the market opens.
Delivered prices built from the market level, differentials, transport, diesel and finance, in rand and dollars. A client asks; the answer comes back in seconds.
Transport requests to carriers on WhatsApp, replies captured, awards and bookings confirmed; export paperwork tracked to hand-over.
Every ton followed from contract to silo to delivery: inbound, on hand, in transit, delivered. The silo's own report is the source, so stock on paper is stock in the bin.
Financing followed per parcel from draw-down to close, interest computed beside the financier's number, bank movements matched to contracts. The money side closes with the stock side.
Invoices raised on the delivered weight, supplier payments prepared per load with every document attached, guarded against paying twice or over the contract — released on a person's tap.
Daily market and stock reports compiled, checked and sent by Terra — under your brand, to your clients.
The grain infrastructure map, silo tariffs kept current, weekly deliveries, fund positions and thirty years of diesel — the reference every job above runs on.
Terra is built in pieces: the market read, the price, the truck, the stock, the invoice, the payment, the report. You take the pieces your day needs. Each one runs under your own name, colours and branding, on your own data, kept apart from everyone else's. Powered by AI, supervised by people.
takes the logistics desk: requests to carriers, replies captured, bookings confirmed, under the broker's own name.
takes the market view: the morning read, the delivered price for the farm's own silo, on the phone before the market opens.
takes the lot: from the market read to the payment run, with the desk's own people on the taps.

Commodity trading has rules that generic automation gets wrong: hedges that must match exposures, carry and parity computed the way a desk computes them, paper that must be right to the ton. Our automation is powered by AI, trained on the daily routine of a real trading desk and tested against history before it runs unsupervised. Numbers are computed by code and checked before they go out. Every message is logged. Anything that binds a client waits for a human.
Tell us how your desk runs — what arrives each morning, what gets priced, what still lives in spreadsheets. We'll tell you plainly what we can take on, and what we can't yet.
