Questions we hear a lot.
Honest answers to the questions farmers actually ask. If yours isn't here, just write, you'll hear back from a real human.
How will trials work?
When we launch, every farm gets one 30-day free trial that unlocks every paid feature, triggered the first time you click into a feature you don't have yet. No credit card required.
What happens when a trial ends?
You go back to the plan you were on before the trial - Free for most farms. Everything you created stays visible and fully editable. If you're over that plan's animal cap, a banner asks you to upgrade before adding more - but data is never locked or deleted. Trials end gracefully, not as a punishment.
Can I export my data?
Yes, anytime. Settings → Export gives you a CSV download per data set: animals, events, shows, financial entries and fibre results. Leaving is as easy as arriving.
Does it work without internet?
The app works on any smartphone browser - no app store required. V1 is online-first: if cell signal drops in the barn, submit buttons are disabled and show a "Check connection" message rather than corrupting your data. True offline sync is on the roadmap.
Is my data secure?
EU servers, daily encrypted backups, full GDPR compliance including right-to-erasure. You own your data, and you can take it with you.
Do you support farms outside the EU?
Yes. The product works anywhere with internet, in any language a browser supports. Servers are currently EU-hosted, which means a small extra latency for breeders in the Americas or Australia - measurable but not painful for a tool you use a few times a day. Other regions on request once volume justifies it.
Is annual billing the only option?
Both! Annual is the default and saves you roughly 17%. Monthly is available if you'd rather try a tier without committing for a year. The 14-day EU right of withdrawal applies regardless.
What does "Income & expenses (Lite)" on the Free plan mean?
You can record every income and expense, link an entry to an animal, and export everything as a CSV - on every plan, forever. The Farm plan adds the business-grade layer on top: income and expense reports with P&L, receipt attachments, splitting one cost across several animals, and custom categories.
Already keeping records somewhere else?
Send us whatever you have. A spreadsheet, an Epsilon backup, even a photo of a printed list. We will set it all up for you, and the first move is free.
Still thinking? Start free, decide later.
Ten animals free forever. Upgrade only when your herd outgrows it. Your records stay yours either way.
