Building the world’s first community-owned data commons for biodiversity.
Only 1% of global biodiversity data comes from the world's largest rainforests. We're changing this by turning local communities into Indigenous scientists and help organisations build equitable data products that can preserve nature.

We co-design equitable AI for nature
Meet Taina, our AI Assistant that guides local and Indigenous communities through storytelling on how to archive and share knowledge. The locally collected data can be self-hosted or governed through a community-elected GainForest Data Council.
We pay conservation data income
We are pioneering decentralized data collection as a sustainable income source for communities. Our community-elected GainForest Data Council sets the current prices for data.
Data | Conservation Data Income |
Bioacoustic | 0.01 USD/min |
Drone Imagery | 0.05 USD/MB |
Tree Imagery | quote per request |
We research and innovate together
Based on collected high-quality data, our Nonprofit hosts annual hackathons in Switzerland and globally to innovate together on AI and data visualisations for nature.
