Run it yourself, or we run it for you

Every Brightfellow tool is free to run yourself. For organizations that don’t want to look after a server, we can run it for you.

Each tool is different

Some tools, like Bibliosphere, are desktop apps and don’t need a server at all. Each tool’s page has the details.
