Support Birdfact
Birdfact is free to use, ad-light, and independent. If you find value in what we do, a small contribution helps us keep the lights on and the birds coming.
Where your support goes
Running Birdfact costs real money every month. Here's a transparent look at what keeps the site alive.
AI identifications
Every bird photo analysed by our identifier uses AI compute. More users means higher costs.
Hosting & infrastructure
Database hosting, image storage, CDN delivery, and server costs to keep the site fast worldwide.
Emails & digests
Personalised monthly digests and newsletters cost per send. Your support helps us reach more inboxes.
Development
Building new features, fixing bugs, and improving the experience takes time and tools.
Species data
Sourcing, verifying, and maintaining data for hundreds of species across multiple regions.
Keeping it free
Your contribution helps us keep Birdfact free for everyone, without paywalling core content.
