Overview
A free group chat for small flocks. Supports emoji, reactions, and the ability to mute a thread that has gone on for sixty replies about lunch.
Gaggle is part of our Collaboration line, and it plays nicely with HenFeed and Cluckboard Wiki, so you can adopt it one perch at a time. Work together in the coop, where the best results hatch.
Teams usually start with the free Chick plan, move to Hen when the flock grows past a handful, and graduate to Rooster once the security team wants audit logs. The upgrade is one click, and nobody needs to molt.
Key features
- Keyboard shortcuts for everything, most of which involve pecking Tab.
- Presence indicators show who is perched at their desk and who is out foraging.
- Offline mode that catches up the moment you are back in range of the coop.
- Gaggle syncs in real time, so two hens can edit the same nest without a squabble.
- End-to-end encryption available for the hens with secrets.

What the flock says
The docs are shockingly good. We tested them by handing them to an intern.
Honestly better than the previous coop. Support answered within a cluck.
We replaced three tools with Gaggle and nobody has asked where the old ones went.
Frequently asked questions
What happens if I cancel?
You can export all of your data in open formats, and we keep a copy for 30 days in case you change your mind. We do not hold your eggs hostage.
Does Gaggle work with the rest of the Pollosoft flock?
Absolutely. Everything shares one identity (Cage-Free SSO), one billing account (BillOfLaying), and one deeply optimistic status page.
Who do I call when something goes wrong?
Our 24/7 clucking support line at (06) 123CLUCK. Please do not call during the 3 p.m. egg break, because we do not pick up.
