This work aims to present the results of the project: “Building technological bridges between family farming and the local market in the municipality of Palmas-TO and region”. This is a descriptive research, in which semi-structured interviews were used for data collection, and requirements gathering, visual prototyping, coding, testing and implementation for software development. The technological tool called AgriToca was designed to serve not only the consumer market with the creation of virtual baskets, but also family farmers, through an online registration form containing all fiscal and marketing data on what is produced and offered for them. It is, therefore, about expanding the possibilities of negotiation with legal entities and direct commercialization between producers and consumers, mainly due to the new market dynamics induced by the Covid-19 pandemic.
