Epic Compost Management
Leveraging composting data to transforming a growing industry.
We are the first software as a service information management system for compost production,
developed by, with, and for community composters.
Our software tracks complex composting processes and impact data.
This mission-critical information enables composters to improve operations and build a foundation for growth.
Community Composters: We need you!
This software is created by composters and for composters. Get involved and tell us what you need!
The core functionality of our app has been developed and we are nearing our public release. We're currently developing sharing functionality and upon completion, will offer our application beyond our pool of internal testers. You are the core users we have been building the product for, and we can't wait for you to try it out.
Help test the app, and save later! Users who sign-up and support functionality testing will be offered a 50% discount on any recurring subscription for the first 3 months of service once we roll out our premium options in 2025.

The Why
We have a clear and present need for data in the compost industry. Composters are held to a number of regulations, reporting requirements, and expectations to track and share significant amounts of information throughout nearly every part of their operations.
And yet, we're still capturing data with pencil and paper. Even when we are integrating digital solutions, this information often lacks unifying oversight, leaving us with critical knowledge gaps at the organizational, municipal, and state levels.
With our technology, everyone who will input, view, or work with this data can have access to what they need. This enterprise-level solution can allow for easy data tracking across teams, and quick reporting functionality, both critically supporting organizational growth, and unlocking staff bandwidth to focus on other important tasks to maintain their operations. Even external stakeholders will have a better view into the various metrics and reports that matter most to them.
Why Community Composters?
Shrink the hauling footprint and associated emissions
Provide beneficial local soil health and climate impacts
Support sustainable local food production and increase community food access
Create equitable, local jobs
Drive inclusive community engagement and wellbeing
Community composters are on the frontlines, reducing our human impact on the environment, and they need support.
Our solution will support them in their data collection across their dozens of site operations, help tell their story, and accelerate both their growth and impact in the years to come. Each of the small-scale composters that we enable, will grow their localized solutions more rapidly, and be able to bolster the many benefits of those local projects.
