FreeBirder Conservation data · Global

Biodiversity-data platform

Bird data as a public good.

FreeBirder turns the world's birders into a distributed sensor network — directing observation effort into the regions where data is thinnest, and keeping the open record clean at scale.

What we're building

01Engagement

We make contributing observations rewarding — and channel that effort toward the regions and species where each new record adds the most.

02Coverage

Across two billion-plus observations, a diffuse community becomes something closer to a coordinated, self-improving sensor network.

03Integrity

Detection systems flag fraudulent and anomalous records, so data quality holds as participation grows.

The improved data isn't ours to keep. It flows back into the open record — free for researchers, conservation groups, and the public. The more the platform succeeds, the better the commons gets.
