  • Add Scarf’s zero-cookie tracking pixels to your project documentation, website, and beyond.
  • Make your existing software available for download from your own endpoint, with Scarf Gateway.
  • Add any other desired telemetry with Scarf’s web API.
Update your project documentation, installation scripts, Docker compose files, helm charts, etc. to fetch artifacts through your custom Scarf Gateway endpoint.
Your users
  • Visit your documentation or other web properties, and in the process fetch a 1x1 pixel image from a Scarf server.
  • Download containers and packages through your custom Scarf Gateway endpoint
  • Run your software and trigger any other telemetry you’ve set up with Scarf

TESTIMONALS

Hear it from our customers

Oliver Gould

Co-Founder / CTO Buoyant

Scarf Gateway is the missing admin dashboard for our container hosting, making it easy to understand how quickly new versions of Linkerd are being adopted and which components are being deployed—data that the container registries have and don't share with us otherwise.

Marc Scholten

Founder of Digitally Induced

It’s important for us to understand who is using [our OSS web framework] IHP. Before using Scarf we’ve mostly relied on the data set of existing customers. . . . It only took us a couple of minutes to integrate the Scarf Gateway.

Peer Richelsen

Co-CEO, Chairman

I wish I installed [Scarf] the day we launched our docker file.

Alexander Gallego

Founder & CEO, Redpanda Data

[We have] been using Scarf to understand how Redpanda is being adopted, and most importantly, how to prioritize engineering efforts for the product. Turns out the world loves Redpanda + Kubernetes more than we thought!

Cesar Talledo

Co-Founder of Nestybox (Acquired by Docker)

Scarf proved to be a valuable tool for Nestybox ... It’s one of the few tools that we used weekly and considered critical to better understand Nestybox’s users and potential customers.

Michael Shanks

Co-Founder & CEO at Budibase

The list of companies that surfaced from our data in Scarf was important for fundraising to show real-world usage. Showing that big companies were not only downloading Budibase but downloading every new version we released was huge.
