Who is it for

Built for everyone designing with nature

Whether you steward two hectares or two thousand, EcoDesign meets you where you are — with AI agents trained in permaculture, regenerative agriculture, passive solar design, and ecological landscape architecture.

Passive solar design

Climate-responsive building plans, generated in minutes.

Skip months of charrette work. EcoDesign's Passive Solar Designer combines a 7-step building program wizard, a 6-tier constraint priority engine, and an algorithmic geometry pipeline (not LLM-generated) to produce thermal zone layouts, glazing ratios, and structural footprints that actually meet your climate, site, and program constraints.

  • Latitude-aware solar gain and overhang calculations
  • Single-story, 1.5-story, and 2-story plans with stairwell alignment
  • Auto-regenerates up to 5 attempts when hard constraints fail
  • Outputs validated with Shapely geometry, not eyeballed

Plant guild designer

Polycultures that actually work, not just plants in a list.

Tell us your zone, your goals, and your site conditions. Our 10-agent plant guild pipeline assembles species combinations grounded in real synergy and conflict data — then visualizes the guild at year 1, year 3, and maturity with Gemini-rendered seasonal views (spring, autumn, plan-view).

  • 5-step wizard with template starting points (no blank-canvas problem)
  • 88 fauna and 600+ flora records with full ecological data
  • Suitability scoring across temperature, rainfall, pH, drought tolerance
  • Export to project library or hand to your client

Farmer Hub

Your AI farm advisor — in your pocket, in your field.

Six mobile-first modules: photograph a pest for instant triage, get irrigation recommendations from live ET₀ and VPD, plan crop rotations from real soil and topography data, design soil amendment strategies, and follow a duration-flexible transition coach from conventional toward regenerative — 3, 6, or 12 months.

  • Kindwise pest photo recognition + agent-led triage
  • Open-Meteo weather and SoilGrids ISRIC baselines built in
  • Practice Library tracks every recommendation you save
  • EUR 9.90/month with a 30-day free trial · 150 farmer credits/cycle

How it works

From site coordinates to design, in three steps.

No CAD background required. No permaculture diploma required. Just your site location and the willingness to answer a few questions about what you want.

Tell us about your place

Drop a pin, set the boundary, answer a short wizard. We pull climate, soil, topography, and water-table data automatically from public sources and our internal databases.

Pick what you want to design

Floor plan? Plant guild? Crop rotation? Soil amendment plan? Irrigation schedule? Each module is its own wizard with templates so you're never starting from zero.

Get a design you can ship

Reports, drawings, PDFs, and visualizations — all in metric SI units, all defensible to clients, all yours to refine in EcoDesign or export.

Algorithmic geometry, not LLM guesswork

Floor-plan geometry uses deterministic algorithms with Shapely validation — because LLMs are unreliable for spatial reasoning. AI handles topology and recommendations; algorithms handle layout.

Grounded in real ecological data

600+ flora records, 88 fauna, soils, structures, technologies. Every AI agent works against your project's actual soil profile, climate readings, and topography — not generic templates.

FAQ

Common questions, plain answers.

What is EcoDesign?
EcoDesign is AI-powered ecological design software for permaculture practitioners, small-scale farmers, landscape architects, and home gardeners. It generates passive solar building plans, plant guilds, soil amendment strategies, irrigation schedules, and regenerative landscape designs — all grounded in your site's real soil, climate, and ecological data.
Do I need design or permaculture training to use it?
No. EcoDesign's AI agents guide you step-by-step through site analysis, wizard-style input, and report generation. Every module is template-driven, so you start from a working baseline instead of a blank canvas.
Is there a free plan?
Yes. Every new account starts with free credits to try every module. No credit card required. Paid plans (including the Farmer Hub subscription at EUR 9.90/month with a 30-day free trial) unlock higher usage limits and specialist modules.
Which units does EcoDesign use?
Metric SI units globally, by design — meters, hectares, millimeters, °C — so the outputs work for international permaculture practitioners, regenerative farmers, and landscape architects.
Can EcoDesign help with climate-resilient design?
Yes. The platform pulls real-time climate data (temperature, rainfall, ET₀, VPD, frost dates) and combines it with your site soil profile and topography to produce climate-resilient recommendations for crops, plant guilds, water systems, and building orientation.
How is EcoDesign different from generic AI tools?
Generic LLMs hallucinate plant names, miss climate constraints, and produce visually plausible but ecologically nonsensical designs. EcoDesign combines domain-trained AI agents with deterministic algorithms (for geometry), curated databases (for species and practices), and real public data sources (Open-Meteo, SoilGrids ISRIC) — so the output is defensible, not just impressive-looking.
