One-Liner
A tool for Indonesian smallholder cocoa and coffee farmers to compare per-kg realized prices across their 3-5 buyer contracts — killed because farmer income is too low to fund any subscription and all pivots to a better-funded buyer converge with Koltiva (the existing incumbents).
AI Thinking Process
Indonesian smallholder cocoa farmer with 2 hectares tracks 4-6 concurrent buyer purchase-orders on paper, unable to compare true per-kg realized price across buyers.
Koltiva ($10M+ raised, C.A.F.E. Practices/Rainforest Alliance traceability), Farmforce (Bayer-owned), Cocoa Life (Mondelez). Koltiva and Farmforce target certification-audit, not farmer-side price reconciliation.
G144 buyer-budget mismatch across all three pivots. Indonesian smallholder tooling at current ACV is not venture-viable. Kill.
Kill Reason
G144 buyer-budget mismatch across all three buyer pivots: (1) farmer directly — $600-1,200/year gross income, $2/month subscription TAM too small; (2) pharma-equivalent corporate buyers (Mondelez/Nestle) — exact Koltiva/Farmforce competitor territory; (3) koperasi cooperatives — Rp 500k/month per koperasi still gives $2M ARR ceiling.
