The software
Decides the move.
Runs where you want.
openpasture is virtual fence software with a first-party OpenCollar integration, and an agent that reasons over your farm's data and decides where the livestock go each day.4 Open source: host it yourself for free, or let us host it.
You stay the operator.
It proposes. You decide how much it does on its own.
Autonomy
Three speeds. Approve every move, let it send on a timer unless you hold it, or let it run.
Reasoning
It shows its work. Every call comes with its inputs, its reasons, and how sure it is.
| input | P4 | P5 |
|---|---|---|
| residual | ~4 in | full |
| rest | 0 d | 38 d |
| rain, 24 h | 12 mm | 12 mm |
| low side wet | yes | no |

Collars
Every boundary acknowledged. Versions only go up. A move counts once the collars say they applied it.
Offline
Fence logic on the collar. It keeps the last good boundary and holds it with no signal. The network only changes where the line is.
Memory
Every day remembered. What it saw, what it decided, what you changed, and what the grass did next. That record is how it learns your ground.
On your machine
Free under AGPL-3.0. Today's release is the agent kit: SQLite by default, and the model you already pay for, or none.
QuickstartHosted by us

2The OpenCollar is a prototype. Specifications are V1 design targets, not measurements, unless marked as measured. Production and delivery timing have not been set and are subject to change.
3The reservation fee is $50 per collar, paid through Stripe. It is fully refundable at any time before you confirm an order, and applied to the purchase price when you do. A reservation is not an order and does not guarantee a price or a delivery date. See the terms.
