arvo turns yard work into clean digital records. Score, weigh and verify your herd with one paddock-ready app — fully offline, paired with your Bluetooth EID wand, and reports ready before you've washed your boots. Built with NZ contractors and farm staff in mind, arvo handles the moments that matter: pre-mating herd reads, calf weighing, DNA sampling, sale-yard verification, and NAIT cross-checks. No paperwork. No spreadsheets at midnight. Just tap, scan, and move to the next animal. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Run Scoring Sessions — pick the traits that matter (Liveweight, BCS, DNA, Herd Read / Audit), score animals in any order, and let arvo handle EID matching, flagging and totals. • Quick Scans — for ad-hoc days: scan an EID, tag it as Sold / Purchased / Transferred In/Out, done. One token per scan, free CSV export. • Standalone NAIT Snapshot — an independent, scan-only NAIT cross-check tool. Import your current animal register and audit any mob against it. Completely separate from your herd files, with strict private-tool disclaimers. • Bluetooth EID Reader Support — pair a Tru-Test XRS2/XRS2i, Gallagher HR0 or HR5 as a wireless keyboard. Scan in seconds. Tap once to open Bluetooth settings. • Barcode Scanning for DNA Samples — pair a Zebra CS6080 to auto-populate the DNA Sample ID field. No typing 9-character codes by hand. • Smart Flagging — Missing EID, Missing LID, Missing VID, Light, Lame, Sick, On Heat, Unreadable, Replacement EID, New Animal Variance. All exported in your reports. • Tag File Requests — request a Herd ID file from your herd data provider (MyHerd, Minda, others) directly through the app. • Audit & Variance Reporting — track replacement EIDs, original-vs-new tag mismatches, and unverified animals. Built-in audit pie charts and variance breakdowns. • CSV & XLSX Export — clean, formatted reports ready to email, share to MyHerd, or hand to your client. Per-session and combined exports. OFFLINE-FIRST, BY DESIGN A lot of work happens out of cell range. arvo stores everything locally on your phone and syncs when you're back online. Your session never stalls because the wifi did. FAIR, TRANSPARENT PRICING Every new user gets 100 free tokens to start. Flat token rates per trait — no session caps, no surprise charges. Need more? Top up directly in the app. WHO arvo IS FOR • Livestock contractors weighing and scoring herds for clients • Dairy and beef farm owners/managers running their own data • Farm staff working under a manager's Mega Pack • Commercial Cow and Stud breeders, NAIT-PIC managers, and herd improvement specialists WHAT YOU GET ON DAY ONE • 100 free tokens • Full scoring engine, no feature locks • Bluetooth wand & barcode scanner support out of the box • CSV / XLSX export • Standalone NAIT compliance tool • Tag File request portal - arvo support PRIVACY & DATA Your scores, animal IDs and herd files stay on your device. We don't sell your data, and we don't share session content with third parties. NAIT snapshot data is positioned as an unofficial private tool — never a substitute for your official NAIT account. SUPPORT Hit a snag? Email us through the app's Settings → Contact Support, or check the FAQ on our website. We typically reply within one business day. arvo — built in New Zealand, tested in the yards, designed to make tomorrow's farm work feel like 2026 instead of 1996.
