White-label grain intelligence for cooperatives. Branded PDF reports, real-time basis tracking, prepay program analytics, and API access — for a fraction of what the big data vendors charge your members.
Designed for cooperatives serving farmers in
GrainBrief pulls from 14 live government data sources daily — and packages them into the exact intelligence tools grain co-ops have been paying DTN and Barchart thousands of dollars a month to access.
Automatically generated weekly grain price scorecards delivered under your co-op's brand. Members get professional market intelligence with your logo, not a competitor's.
Internal merchandiser dashboard showing which prepay commitments are covered vs. exposed at current and projected price levels. Know your book before the morning meeting.
Daily USDA AMS cash bids for your state and surrounding states. Track your basis vs. comparable elevators and flag when you're losing business to a competitor's bid.
The internal merchandiser tool that pays for itself in one conversation. Compare your posted cash bid to USDA AMS state averages and spot where you're above or below market.
Six live government data signals automatically translated into plain-English implications for your grain book — not just raw numbers, but what they mean for basis this week.
Pull GrainBrief price data directly into your grain management system, ERP, or custom internal dashboard via documented REST API. JSON responses with standard grain commodity codes.
Members ask every fall: "Is this the year I should sell a big load through the co-op for patronage?" Now you can give them a real answer backed by data.
Managing grain merchandising across 5 country elevators, 2 river terminals, and a feed mill? GrainBrief Enterprise supports multi-site reporting and aggregated position tracking out of the box.
No per-seat fees. No per-member fees. One flat rate for your entire co-op.
"We've been paying DTN $800/month for years. Half the data GrainBrief shows comes from USDA anyway — I didn't know anyone had packaged it this cleanly for free. This is a no-brainer for smaller co-ops."
"The prepay tracker alone is worth the subscription. We had three contracts where our cash bid was within 8 cents of our prepay level. I wouldn't have caught that without a side-by-side view."
"My members were getting DTN price alerts on their phones and coming in with data I didn't have. Now I send them the GrainBrief weekly PDF on Monday morning and I'm the one ahead of the conversation."
All cash bid data comes from USDA AMS (Agricultural Marketing Service) via their MARS API — the same underlying data that DTN, Barchart, and Progressive Farmer pay for and repackage. We pull daily reports for 11 states covering Iowa, Nebraska, Illinois, Minnesota, Indiana, Ohio, Missouri, Michigan, Kansas, South Dakota, and North Dakota. All market signals come from CFTC, USDA FAS, USDA FGIS, EIA, NOAA, and FRED — all free government sources.
Yes — the Enterprise plan includes full white-labeling of PDF member reports. Upload your co-op logo, set your primary color, and add your contact information and elevator addresses. Members see your brand, not ours. The PDF header, footer, and cover page are all customizable.
The Enterprise plan includes REST API access with up to 1,000 calls per day. Endpoints are documented and return JSON. Common use cases: pulling current cash bids into your grain management software, triggering alerts in your internal system when basis moves past a threshold, or displaying GrainBrief data on your co-op website's member portal. API credentials are provisioned within 24 hours of signup.
No contracts. Cancel any month — no penalties, no fees. We earn your business by delivering value every week, not by locking you in. If the platform isn't making your merchandising team more effective, you shouldn't pay for it.
Cash bid data covers 11 states: Iowa, Nebraska, Illinois, Minnesota, Indiana, Ohio, Missouri, Michigan, Kansas, South Dakota, and North Dakota. Commodities: corn, soybeans, winter wheat, spring wheat, grain sorghum, oats, and barley. Market signal data (COT, exports, crush margins, drought) is national. We're adding more states in Q3 2026 based on co-op demand.
We'll set up a 30-minute demo using your state's USDA AMS cash bid data and walk your merchandising team through every feature. No commitment required.
