About SawitSync

Why it exists

Smallholders grow a large share of Malaysia's oil palm, and most of them still keep the harvest in their head and the money in a drawer. The tools that exist were built for estates: hectares, blocks, agronomy departments, English. A family with two lots and a lorry needs something that takes ten seconds at the ramp and speaks Bahasa Melayu.

So the app does three things and does them plainly: it remembers every harvest and what it paid, it tells you what baja to buy and when, and it nudges you when the next round is due.

How it's built

Nudges, not orders

Windows are soft, suggestions come with reasons, and moving or skipping a plan is one tap. The app never pretends to know more than it does.

Honest money

Income stays gross and costs stay visible. What you kept is shown, never hidden inside a netted figure.

Both languages, first-class

Every screen is written in Bahasa Melayu and English — not translated afterwards. Switch any time in settings.

Fertiliser guidance follows MPOB's F-series smallholder recommendations, by palm age and soil type. Weather comes from a public forecast service, using each lot's location. The app is written in Flutter, so the same code runs on the web today and on Android and iPhone next.

What it is not

Not a buyer, a dealer, or a middleman. The app never touches your money; it only records what you tell it.
Not an agronomist. If you have a soil test or a programme from MPOB or an extension officer, follow that and use the app to track it.
Not a data business. Your records are yours. See the privacy policy — it's short.

What's next

Android and iPhone apps from the same code.
Prices per kilogram alongside per tonne, chosen per harvest.
Reminders on your phone when a fertiliser or harvest window opens.
Plainer words throughout — fruit sale where the app still says FFB sale.
