OK
Inside its target. Nothing to do today.
You: Nothing
How it works
From scattered records to one ranked brief.
Rigo AI joins up what you already have, checks it before trusting it, and ranks every block against the water and pump hours you actually have.
How it’s done today
The answer is spread across six places.
A probe graph, a weather app, the WhatsApp group, a notebook, a board letter and your consultant’s last call. You join it all up in your head, every morning.
With Rigo AI
Rigo AI turns it into one short list.
Ranked by what needs water before the next pump slot, with the cost in m³ and how sure we are. When the data is bad, it says so.

every block, dailyWhat you’ll see
Every block gets one word.
The same word and colour on the map, in the list and on WhatsApp. The word is always printed, so nothing depends on colour alone. And Rigo is never more sure than its data.
Watch
Will need water in the next few days, or heat is coming.
You: Plan a pump window
Act
Needs water before the next pump slot. At least two signs agree.
You: Approve, change or check first
Hold
The data isn't good enough to say. Rigo tells you what to check.
You: Check the probe, take a reading or walk the block
Deficit
Short on water this week. Your plan says this block waits.
You: Keep the plan or override it
How sure? Always in words: high when two or more sources agree, medium when one good source is missing, low when it’s only an estimate. Never “87%”.
Western Cape winelands
Built around three things every farm runs short of.
- The water you’re allowed
- The pump hours you have
- The people who decide
The 2026/27 pilot
One farm. One summer. Measured.
We’re choosing one irrigated wine farm for the 2026/27 pilot: 4–8 blocks, Dec to Mar, no new hardware to start. You decide if it’s worth paying for.
