The Studio

Built by engineers.
Designed for those
who chase the moment.

Black Canopy Solutions is a software studio building AI-native planning intelligence for the real world. We start where the stakes are highest and the planning is hardest.

A simple premise.

NASA · mission-critical infrastructure U.S. Department of Defense Academic research networks

Black Canopy Solutions was built on a simple premise: planning anything worth doing shouldn't take a spreadsheet, a dozen browser tabs, and a group chat that never ends. The intelligence that makes hard logistics effortless shouldn't be reserved for people with a full-time planner — it should be in everyone's pocket.

Our background spans decades across some of the most demanding environments in the world — from NASA mission-critical infrastructure to the U.S. Department of Defense and leading academic institutions. We've designed, deployed, and troubleshot systems where uptime wasn't a metric — it was a mission requirement.

We're applying that same rigor to a different problem: planning. Black Canopy is building a general-purpose planning intelligence platform — one engine that understands real-world conditions, logistics, and timing, and turns them into a plan you can actually run. GetStokd, our app for the outdoors, is the first thing we've built on it. It won't be the last — the same engine can power the next trip, the next celebration, the next once-in-a-lifetime weekend. Whatever's worth planning right.

We're a small, focused team. We don't chase every deal or every trend. We build tools we'd use ourselves — for the people who'd rather chase the moment than manage the logistics.

Real stakes. Real conditions.

01

Built for the field

We build for moments where the details matter — weather, terrain, timing, safety. No generic itineraries.

02

AI that does the work

Planning should feel like talking to an expert who's been there. Our tools turn intent into a real plan.

03

One engine, many apps

Everything we ship runs on a shared planning engine — so each new vertical launches sharper than the last.

The first canopy. Not the last.

The engine beneath GetStokd was built to be general-purpose from day one. We're already adapting it for new audiences and new categories of planning. More canopies opening soon.
