Workflow

your baby's data

Self-managed open-source website for your baby registry, photos, and tracking.

Three major use cases in one

When you're a new parent, the last thing you need to do is worry about sending your data to whatever app shows up second in your app search. Set up your own site that you fully control.

Baby Registry Independence

There are a lot of sites out there where you can list or host your baby registry, so which one(s) do you want to rely on for yours? Owlkins allows you to run a simple site populated by any item you add to your database.

World Wide Web Freedom

Include a link to an item on any site. Useful for if you have several registries at different retailers, each offering their own discount.

No tracking

It's your database and your data, the only person looking at it is you and your visitors!*
*Once an external link to BigNameCo's popular item is clicked they are probably tracking...

No sign in required

You don't have to make a user for visitors to see the site. Visitors can claim items by filling out the form with their name and email.

Share Photos with Family & Friends

Your sister likes Snapchat but your aunt only views Facebook, yet they both want to see updates from your little one. Consolidate your audience onto Owlkins which you fully control.

Ultimate privacy

Reduce the chance your little one's photos are stored in some big corporation's servers with dubious privacy policies. You don't want to curse your new family member with 100+ headshots forever being used as training sets for the "AI" that will please some metaverse investors next quarter.

Daily email digests

Run a systemd job to send a daily email digest announcing any new activity over the previous day.

Web based

Runs on any device that has a browser, allowing grandpa to maximize on the living room TV while grandma can browse from the comfort of her iPad.

Track Your Baby's Progress

Some of your friends may have used apps to track vital information like feedings, sleep, and poops, limited to just their own smartphone. With Owlkins, you can track all of this data across all of your devices, and those of your users as well.

Super easy for other caretakers

Hopefully you are surrounded by friends and family taking care of your little one at various points in the day. Or perhaps you hire a nanny during the day or night. With Owlkins, you can keep everyone on the same page regarding what's next in your little one's routine.

No third party tracking

The data you input is saved into your database that you manage. No need to worry about where your data is and what someone is doing with it!

Trending graphs

Owlkins aggregates data and draws key trending graphs so that you can pick up on positive and negative trends easily.
