Full app, no limits

No subscription. No per-seat fee. No premium tier. AGPL-3.0 open source. Every feature, every member, permanently.

Grant-ready attribution

Create your org in the app. Share a QR code. Every member's contributions are attributed to you. Your impact page updates in real time.

Community mesh

Bulletins reach every member's device. Surplus listings propagate locally. Skills exchange connects mentors to new beekeepers. No group chat app needed.

Community-driven

Your feedback shapes the tool. Feature requests, bug reports, and suggestions are heard. The software evolves with the community it serves.

Five steps. Five minutes.

1

Create your org profile in Apiara

Name, type, region. The app generates a shareable link and QR code.

2

Share the QR code at your next meeting

Members scan it. Apiara downloads or opens. Org is pre-filled. One scan, done forever.

3

Members use the app for their beekeeping

Log inspections, track varroa, record harvests. Everything works offline. Data stays on their device.

4

When they choose, they contribute

One button. Anonymized. Attributed to your org. Feeds the global dataset.

5

Your impact page updates automatically

Members, inspections, hives, regions covered. Public, verifiable, always current. That's your grant evidence.

Data concerns

"Won't someone use our data?"

Contributed data is anonymized. No names, no GPS (coarsened to ~1km if shared at all), no personal information. Hive IDs are randomized per export. What IS visible is your aggregate impact: "This organization contributed 1,200 inspections across 12 states." That number wins grants.

"Do we lose control?"

Members contribute voluntarily. They press a button. Nothing is automatic. Nothing is collected without explicit action. Data on their device stays fully theirs. Your org sets the culture, not the software.

"What do WE get out of contributing?"

A public, verifiable impact page. "47 members. 1,203 inspections. 312 hives monitored. 12 states." Updated in real time. You cite it in every grant application. The data proves your program works with numbers, not testimonials.

The dedicated node

Take any old Android phone. Plug it into power and WiFi at your meetup location. It becomes a permanent community hub. Every visitor syncs automatically. New members get the full community history on their first visit. Bulletins, surplus listings, skills, and shared data, all available instantly.

Zero servers purchased. Zero accounts created. Zero monthly fees. One old phone and a WiFi connection.
