If you are tired of guessing your spacing, doubling back over rows, or leaving thin missed strips during spraying, seeding, or fertilizing, Trakkit AgOpenGPS Visual Guidance Kit with RTK Assist gives you a simpler way to start. This is the practical first step into precision farming: RTK visual guidance with a lower barrier than a full auto-steer build.

You do not need to start with steering motors, hydraulic installs, or a major retrofit just to get real value. Start with clear guidance lines on screen, cleaner passes in the field, and a setup you can actually get working this season.

Quick answer: RTK Assist is for farmers who want better pass accuracy and less overlap without jumping straight into full autosteer.

Why farmers start here

Full auto-steer can be powerful, but it can also slow people down before they even begin. More hardware. More wiring. More install decisions. More troubleshooting. RTK Assist is built for the customer who wants the fastest practical path to better guidance in the field.

• Reduce overlap during spraying, fertilizing, and seeding
• Improve pass-to-pass consistency without starting with a full steering retrofit
• Learn precision guidance the easy way before investing more
• Start with a simpler install path you can actually finish

Who this is for

• First-time precision ag buyers who want a lower-risk place to start
• Farmers frustrated by skips and doubles in repeated field passes
• AgOpenGPS beginners who want a practical guided entry point
• Operators on a budget who want field improvement before committing to full auto-steer

If you already know you need hands-free steering right now, this may not be the end point. But if you want real field improvement this season, visual guidance is often the smartest first move.

What you get with RTK Assist

This is not just a box of parts. RTK Assist is a guided starter offer built to help you get from “I’ve been meaning to do this” to “I’m actually using it in the field.”

• Recommended RTK starter hardware for visual guidance
• A simpler setup path so you are not piecing everything together from scratch
• Email support for initial setup questions
• A practical starting point before full auto-steer
• Optional next-step support if you decide to expand later

How it works

1. Start with guidance, not complexity

You begin with visual guidance lines on screen so you can improve field passes without starting with a major steering install.

2. Set up the recommended RTK hardware

The goal is a working, useful setup — not a months-long project. RTK Assist is designed to get you moving faster.

3. Use AgOpenGPS for visual guidance

Once configured, you can use guidance lines to maintain more repeatable spacing and cut down on field overlap.

4. Decide later if you want to go further

After you have field experience with visual guidance, you can decide whether staying there is enough or whether a more advanced system makes sense later.

Why not wait until you can afford full autosteer?

Because waiting often means another season of overlap, wasted inputs, and “good enough” passes. RTK Assist lets you improve accuracy now, learn the workflow now, and upgrade later only if it actually makes sense for your farm.

Better this season beats perfect someday.

What this is not

• Not full auto-steer: this page is about visual guidance first.
• Not a legal surveying service: use licensed professionals where legal boundary work is required.
• Not a one-size-fits-all promise: exact fit can vary by machine, display device, and goals.

FAQs

Do I need full autosteer to benefit from this?

No. RTK Assist is specifically for customers who want to begin with visual guidance first.

Will this help with spraying, seeding, and fertilizing?

Yes. That is the main reason to start here: more repeatable passes and less overlap during field operations.

Do I need to be highly technical?

No. The whole point of RTK Assist is to simplify the starting path for customers who do not want to piece together a system on their own.

Can I upgrade later?

Yes. RTK Assist is meant to be a practical first step, not a dead end.

How do I order if the full portal is not live yet?

Use the contact button and send your tractor model, current setup, and goals. We can confirm fit and next steps manually.
