Field-first ecological operating system

The field-first operating system
for tree care.

Assess trees by voice. Know your local ordinance before you cut. Track every job, every tree, every ecological benefit from one property hub. Built to work offline in full sun with gloves on.

For arborists, land stewards, nurseries, and citizen scientists who treat tree care as a living systems practice, not paperwork.

The Ecosystem

Four open protocols. One regenerative operating system. Each pillar solves a distinct problem in the lifecycle of ecological stewardship — from inventory to sanctuary.

Arboracle Pro

Active

The Inventory

A decentralized standard for tree inventory and ecological valuation. Moving beyond "management" into recognition of biological assets.

For: Professional arborists, tree care companies, and ISA-certified consultants.

Tree-centric inventory with TIZ mapping
Full business operations (CRM, estimates, invoicing)
AI-assisted species ID and risk assessment
Ecological services quantification (carbon, stormwater, biodiversity)
Ordinance intelligence for 3,000+ municipalities

Nursery

Beta

The Source

Open-source propagation protocols and inventory tracking for native plant nurseries. From seed collection to delivery.

For: Native plant nurseries, wholesale growers, and conservation organizations.

Batch tracking with full provenance chain
Species library with bioregional data
Production planning and yield forecasting
IPM scouting and treatment logs
Order fulfillment and delivery routing

Forest

Beta

The Designer

Plan and manage Miyawaki-style pocket forests. Mimic natural succession and maximize biodiversity density with the Open Protocol.

For: Landscape architects, municipalities, and citizen reforestation groups.

Miyawaki method species calculator
Bioregion-specific planting palettes
Layer-by-layer forest design tool
Growth monitoring and survival tracking
Community forest collaboration

Sanctuary

Concept

The Destination

De-commodifying land through regenerative stewardship. A legal and technical framework for land tenure based on ecological improvement, not speculation.

For: Landowners, regenerative stewards, impact investors, and land trusts.

Sanctuary Scorecard for land viability assessment
Steward-to-land matching protocol
Ecological equity model (sweat equity for land stewards)
Investor deal flow pipeline
Before/after evidence portfolio system

Citizen Science

You don't need a chainsaw or a business license to protect the canopy. Every person who documents a tree strengthens the network for everyone.

Document Trees

Snap photos, identify species, record measurements of trees in your neighborhood, parks, or anywhere you explore.

Track Your Impact

See the Tree Influence Zone — how each tree impacts carbon, water, biodiversity, and soil health in real numbers.

Share with Professionals

Your observations flow directly into professional arborist workflows. Real data, real impact.

Build the Map

Contribute to the most comprehensive decentralized urban forest database ever assembled.

The Network Effect

Every citizen observation enriches the data for professionals. Every professional assessment validates citizen data. The more people participate, the more valuable the network becomes for everyone. This is the 2-sided flywheel of ecological intelligence.

The Journey

The Soil Grower's Path

Whether you're a homeowner documenting your first oak or a 30-year veteran arborist, your journey on the Path advances with every observation, assessment, and act of stewardship.

The Soil Grower's Path

Your journey from Seedling Steward to Legacy Protector

"AI as the bicycle, not the replacement. You are the Captain."

Why Decentralize?

Trees don't rely on a central server to grow. Neither should the data that protects them. We are moving from SaaS (Software as a Service) to SaaI (Software as an Instrument).

An instrument you own. An instrument you play. An instrument that works offline, in the field, where the real work happens.

Your Data, Your Soil

Every tree record, every assessment, every photo — it lives on YOUR node. Not our servers. We are the protocol, not the landlord.

Zero Lock-in

Export everything. Fork the code. Run your own node on a Raspberry Pi, a local server, or the cloud. Your data is never held hostage.

Offline-First

The real work happens in the field — where cell service doesn't. Open Arbor works offline and syncs when you're back in range.

Federated Intelligence

Nodes share aggregated ecological metrics without exposing private business data. Global intelligence, local sovereignty.

The Forest Doesn't Wait.

Every tree documented. Every nursery connected. Every sanctuary protected. This is not a product — it's a protocol for regeneration.
