How does the real-life field guide work?

How is rarity graded?
Easy to spot on a walk around the block.
Shows up at the right place and time.
Maybe once or twice a season, if you keep looking.
You'll need a bit of luck to run into one.
Built by developers who stared at monitors all day.
This app started from a team burning out on 14-hour days.
“We keep getting more tired. How do we get more done?”
Instead of building another productivity app, we went on a walk.
Posting nature photos to each other became our team ritual. Now we want to give everyone else a small reason and excuse to look up for a minute.
Studying, working, parenting, grinding... put it down for a minute and come walk with us.

Backed by experts
Researching evolution, immunology, mammals, host-microbe interactions, and the immune response.
Wildfolio is more than a tracking app. It connects what you observe with real ecological context.
It opens up the experience of understanding nature as data, not just for researchers but for everyday users too.

FAQ
When does it ship?
Dev starts the week after the campaign closes. Expected release is mid-June. Once dev starts, we'll post regular updates in the Discord.
What if you miss the goal?
Every pledge is refunded in full within 5 business days of the close date. We'll email you, too.
Is this only for experts?
Not at all. If you've ever snapped a bird or a flower on a walk, you're the audience.
