Farm labor is booked by phone call. We're turning it into two taps.
Agricultural contracting, field and barn work alike, is fragmented, offline, and relationship-driven. Douar Group is building the booking layer for it, starting in Brittany.
X pilot farms live, X jobs booked, X€ in GMV to date, growing X% month over month, at a X% take rate and a X% contribution margin per job.
The app is live on iOS, Android and Web today, with real bookings already running.
The French ag-contracting market is worth X€B, and X% of it is still booked by phone. Existing ETAs and co-ops book by relationship, with no shared booking layer, no price transparency, and no data trail, and none of them serve both field and barn work under one product. Public cadastre and building data now let a farmer declare either in minutes, no manual survey needed. That combination, an unbundled market plus newly usable open data, is why this works now and didn't five years ago.
Field contracting, on demand
Ploughing to harvest, priced and booked in-app instead of by phone.
Barn contracting, on demand
Vaccination to manure removal, same booking flow, same standard.
Founder-market fit today. A deliberate, funded gap tomorrow.
Farm upbringing in Brittany, engineering degree from ENIB Brest, autonomous field robotics at AgriProTech, tractor ECU work at Breizelec, BMW Group, and the Paris robotics startup HyLight.

- Pilot farm onboarding
- Billing and invoicing conversations

Raising a seed round to expand past Brittany.
Placeholder terms: X€ at a X€ pre-money valuation, to fund crew hiring, app development, and expansion into two new regions.
