FAQ

General

The basics: who we are, what we do, and whether the chickens are real.

What is Pollosoft?

Pollosoft is a fictional software company run by chickens. We build development tools, cloud infrastructure, analytics, security software, hardware, and games, all with a chicken-based vocabulary.

Are the chickens real?

The chickens are as real as the products. If you meet one at our Haarlem HQ, please be gentle. If you meet a fox, please be gentle but also loud.

Is any of this real software?

No. Every product, API, price, person, and error code on this site is invented for fun. Do not try to install anything. The cluck CLI will not respond. It is, however, extremely well documented.

Why chickens?

Because chickens have an excellent grasp of structure, hierarchy, and early starts. Also, because we were tired of the cloud puns and wanted our own barnyard.

Where are you based?

Rozenstraat 84, Haarlem, in a former bakery. The ovens still work, which is useful for lunch.
