The record

Purpose: ephios is a web-based platform for digital duty and personnel planning by aid organizations.
Use cases: The site lists group leader training, swimming training, concert security, medical services, fire watches, beach lifeguarding, testing services, and continuing education as use cases.
Event signups: Organizers can publish events to relevant groups and require confirmation for volunteer signups.
Qualifications and permissions: Users can be assigned qualifications such as group leader or paramedic, which can be required for event participation; the platform also provides role permissions and group visibility.
Mobile use: The mobile web app can be installed through a smartphone browser and supports push notifications.
Additional features: The site lists work-hour tracking, PDF and calendar export, guest participation, change logging, document storage, and sharing with other associations.
Extensibility: An open-source plugin system can add organization-specific signup processes and other volunteer workflows such as equipment management.
Calendar integrations: Users can subscribe to a personalized read-only event feed in calendar apps including Google Calendar, Apple Calendar, Nextcloud Calendar, and Thunderbird.
API and identity: The software provides a REST API with session or token authentication and can support OAuth2 integrations; it also supports external OIDC identity providers.
Security: The maker says the open-source software is independently security reviewed; its deployment guidance requires HTTPS in production and describes SSL and HSTS configuration.
Self-hosting requirements: Production self-hosting generally requires Python, a WSGI server, reverse proxy, database, Redis, SMTP server, domain, and TLS certificate.
Support: The hosted Starter plan includes personal email support, and the maker says installation and maintenance are handled for customers.
Trial: The registration page offers a one-month trial and says ephios provisions an instance under the organization's own ephios.de subdomain.
Price from: €9.99/mo
