Death by a thousand subscriptions.
Per seat. Per action. Add up what it costs to keep renting your everyday software.
Why now
For a small business’s everyday software, we think a machine you own should be the starting point. The hardware caught up. The apps grew up. Useful AI can run locally. The monthly bills kept coming.

02The apps
The open-source tool is as good as the subscription. Governments already run them. Small teams can too.
03The hardware
We rented because owning a server was loud, hot and expensive. A 25 W box now does that job.
04Local AI
Most of human knowledge now fits on a €1,000 graphics card. Give it the work you keep putting off.
05The OS
Updates like a phone, undo like a document, and your whole setup back on a new machine. No Linux expert needed.
06Infrastructure rent
One server for three years: €23,000 rented, €2,600 owned. The disks are the bill.
Your files, website, automations and internal tools need compute, storage and a good way to run them. You can own all three.
A public website can live on your server. A private team app can live alongside it. OurGrove brings the app store, OS and appliance together to make that practical.
Cloud platforms have earned their place in global systems and unpredictable workloads. Everyday software for a small team deserves an ownership option just as well put together. That is what we’re building.
