ACCEL-KS Founder Video: Grace Heritage Farms
Grace Heritage Farms, run by Sarah Easdon in East Central Kansas, is building virtual fencing for regenerative goat grazing. Rotational grazing keeps land and livestock healthy, but today it means physically dragging fence, which is slow and labor-intensive. Sarah's system puts a GPS collar on each goat that beeps near a set boundary and corrects it if the goat crosses.
ACCEL-KS Founder Video: Go AcademiX
GO ACADEMIX, founded by Jocelyn Powell, is an all-in-one platform for allied health training programs, the schools that train CNAs, CMAs, phlebotomists, and licensed nurses. These programs usually juggle disconnected tools for enrollment, learning management, and certification tracking. GO ACADEMIX combines all of that, plus scheduling and compliance, in one connected system.
ACCEL-KS Founder Video: Planetary Talent
Planetary Talent, co-founded by Jacob Schlittenhardt, is reimagining the hiring process. Instead of a job posting, an employer shares its raw thinking about the hire they need; the platform builds a model of the ideal candidate and runs targeted ads to find them. Applicants get a model too, built around their story, and the two compare notes before a human sees a shortlist.
ACCEL-KS Founder Video: Lucille Group
Ask Lucille, a product of the Lucille Group founded by Andrea Amaro, solves this by using AI image recognition to quickly inventory a whole home, capturing and valuing belongings before a claim ever happens. After a catastrophe, many homeowners and renters can lose out on tens of thousands of dollars from lacking documentation on household items.
ACCEL-KS Founder Video: Tacit Technology
Tacit Technologies, founded by Rye Kennedy, makes Jitterbug, a device that helps wind farm owners decrease maintenance costs by up to 30 percent. Jitterbug identifies the early signs that a wind turbine is failing, so operators can plan repairs before a breakdown.
