KAI RED AND BLUE

H&N INTERNATIONAL’S POCKET-SIZED FARMING ASSISTANT

There are already several programmes available for egg farmers, so why create yet another?

Because KAI represents a quantum leap in terms of functionality and user friendliness,” says Dr. Fernando Carrasquer, one of the masterminds behind the H&N app

What is KAI? Or rather, who?

Basically, this app in two versions is a skilled assistant to work side-by-side with egg producers and day-old pullet producers. KAI is like a staff member that issues reminders for tasks and keeps track on them being carried out.

KAI also gives real-time help, answers, and offers tips and consultancy when it detects a problem.

It learns with any data added, and it also makes the graphs and charts needed to control production

   

 

Where exactly does KAI help?

Anywhere and with anything related to rearing ready-tolay hens and layer parent stock, and in producing table eggs or day-old pullets.

For example, KAI can help to adjust the lighting programme to local conditions and the desired target egg sizes. It can also support the farm staff by keeping track of tasks and issuing reminders— or alerts in the event that anything is at risk of being delayed or forgotten.

Risk prevention and damage control are crucial to protect birds and business alike.

Another benefit is that farmers no longer need to manually collect notes and write at the office. The flawless connectivity between the two versions of the KAI app and an office computer is easily made by transferring data with a spreadsheet or charts generated by KAI. No need to manually take notes or transfer data into Excel sheets anymore!

But isn’t it disruptive?

Any good technology is disruptive; if it wasn’t, it probably wouldn’t be truly good. It is a real quantum leap to a new level of service. Consider how the all-in-one printer combined printing, scanning, and copying functions into one machine. The laptop combined keyboard and monitor into one portable device.

The touchscreen that most of today’s mobile phones feature rendered the keyboard obsolete—and the Blackberry, too. Does anyone remember the good old music record? Video recorders? Music or video tapes?

So, if technology is disruptive, then the chances are it is also better—with more new functions than you had until now!

Comparison of KAI’s functionalities against other poultry apps

Red and Blue— good for you!

KAI Red is the complementary counterpart to KAI Blue that came onto the market back in November 2021. “We are seeing more and more of our distributors using it, because KAI makes everything so much safer, easier, more efficient and thus more profitable,” says Xabier Arbe, Managing Director of H&N International and one of the “fathers” of H&N’s farming assistant 4.0.

Both versions of the app run on Android or iOS mobile phones like any other high-quality freeware. Farmers literally get to hold their production success in their own hands—or carry it in their pockets, anywhere they go!

 

KAI: Because time is money

Of course, KAI also gathers all the necessary data and makes sense of it in automated charts, so producers can directly control their production parameters and key performance indicators (KPIs) like body weight, egg weight, mortality, feather scoring, water intake, serology results etc. They can draw fast conclusions and take the right decisions for success.

Furthermore, it is now possible to carry out technical support, prevent failures and efficiently manage complaints much faster and far more easily, because distributors and egg producers can share the data in question with their layer supplier at the press of a button. “KAI is like a digital fitness companion that not just monitors, but actively consults and coaches you to reach your goals,” says Xabier Arbe.

KAI: Realtime advice from a real assistant

KAI not only captures data on the mobile phone right on-site at the barn. It also analyses all the data throughout various production parameters.

The app actively recommends proven, tracked targeted actions and issues alerts when any parameters may go off track.

Prevention means profit protection. Gains in efficiency also mean gains in profit. Fast-track support means fast solutions to problems or questions before they may have an impact.

What KAI stands for

The Thai language inspired the app’s name: “Depending on the pronunciation, it can mean ‘chicken’ or ‘egg’,” explains Arbe. And the management principle of Kaizen, Japanese for “ongoing optimization of processes”, is completely in line with H&N International’s brand promise of genetics and more. “Ultimately, we provide consultancy and also sell genetic solutions,” says Arbe.

Finally, AI is commonly used for various formats of artificial intelligence. “KAI has it all: blue or red, it’s a safe bet!” Visually, the little icons indicate rearing in KAI Blue, and the big, oval egg shape in KAI Red.

The two figurative shapes have been created using the letters K, A and I as an inspiration, where the letter “i” was truncated to just the dot on the “i”, now forming the figurine’s head

Multiple added values

KAI Blue and KAI Red work hand in hand: after rearing the flock for 16 weeks with KAI Blue, it can be moved into KAI Red for egg production management.

KAI monitors every flock 24/7, 365 days a year. Farmers get real-time insights into egg target achievement, the birds’ health, and consumables at the push of a button. KAI simply helps farmers work more efficiently and improve their birds’ general health and productivity

 

KAI helps to improve flock data collection and analysis with the regular checks of all fundamental KPIs anytime, anywhere:

1. Excellent development?

Target the flocks’ weights and uniformity, and compare to the breed’s standards, giving solutions if those values aren’t achieved.

2. Vaccination and lighting on track?

Never miss a thing while being reminded of due vaccinations or adjustments to lighting times.

3. Go green 

Have all your documents ready in one click whenever you need them. Goodbye to messy paperwork, hello digital office! And every time you do need paper for printing, your digital desk has it all ready and in the right order

4. Are your birds productive?

Get timely insights into productivity status, and increase or finetune where needed.

5. How healthy are your birds?

Benefit from the blood sampling reminder so all the data is in one place, and you can make better analyses of performance and blood analysis results.

6. How about consumables?

In-depth insights into feed consumption, feed conversion and water intake will help achieve the target feed intake needed for your desired egg results

Tiered access can be granted to various staff members or specialists—or withdrawn from them. Not everybody has to see everything unless you want them to.

KAI is a real assistant that saves time, prevents failures, shows the direct path to troubleshooting and support, and deals with all the analytics. It transfers production data into economic KPIs that show if business is on track,” affirms Xabier Arbe.
