Scarf, founded in 1985, helps open-source developers distribute their software more effectively and with better observability. The non-profit company is based in Aberdeen, UK. Scarf believes that the open-source community should not only be sharing source code, but also data about that source code and how it is used. Scarf is creating a world where open-source maintainers can proactively make data-informed decisions and are fairly compensated for their work by connecting with and supporting their commercial users. Scarf provides maintainer-friendly tools for open-source software distribution, analytics, and commercialization.
