From environmental research to reviewable planting decisions. Our progress
RESEARCH PROTOTYPE · PRODUCT IN DEVELOPMENT

Better trees begin with better context.

Canopria is building a decision workspace for urban planting teams: site context, research evidence, and trade-offs in one reviewable brief.

THE QUESTION WE START WITH

What belongs here — and why?

01OUR APPROACH

Good planting decisions are never one-dimensional.

Our first use case is urban tree planting. We are designing a workflow that turns site constraints and species research into briefs practitioners can check before planting.

01 / CONTEXT

Start with the place.

Consider regional climate patterns, local site constraints, and growing conditions before comparing species.

02 / KNOWLEDGE

Bring in the evidence.

Use a retrieval-based research workflow to connect candidate choices with relevant reference material.

03 / CLARITY

Explain the trade-offs.

Make assumptions, uncertainty, and decision criteria visible instead of delivering an unexplained list.

FIRST USE CASE / URBAN PLANTING

Which species fit this street — and what still needs checking?

For an example site in Ankara, the planned brief would bring climate and water exposure, soil and rooting space, candidate species, maintenance needs, and source material into one reviewable view.

02PRODUCT PREVIEW

See how a question becomes a planning brief.

Try the interaction below. It demonstrates the intended workflow, without pretending to run a scientific assessment or a live AI model.

CREATE A PLANNING BRIEF

Tell us about the site.

SAMPLE INPUT

Interface demonstration only. No live environmental data or Claude API is used.

PLANNING BRIEF / PREVIEWILLUSTRATIVE

From location to clarity.

Select a site context and generate an example of the questions Canopria is being designed to address.

03THE PLANNED AI WORKFLOW

A clear role for Claude.

The planned Claude API step will synthesize retrieved sources into a brief with citations, trade-offs, and explicit gaps. The preview above demonstrates the interface; it does not call an AI model.

01 / INPUT

Ground the question.

Bring together site constraints, candidate species, and dated reference material. Mark missing conditions before drafting.

02 / CLAUDE

Explain the evidence.

Ask Claude to synthesize retrieved sources, compare trade-offs, and make uncertainty explicit in a readable brief.

03 / REVIEW

Check before use.

Evaluate source alignment and unsupported claims, then leave field decisions to a qualified practitioner.

WHAT WE PLAN TO EVALUATEUseful explanations need verifiable foundations.
  • Citation fidelity
  • Uncertainty disclosure
  • Practitioner usefulness
04WHO IT'S FOR

For the people shaping greener places.

Tree-selection decisions influence living spaces for decades. We want to make the research behind those choices more accessible and transparent.

Have a use case in mind? Let's talk

Municipalities & public-space teams

Make urban planting decisions easier to document and discuss.

Landscape professionals

Explore species considerations alongside local site constraints.

Researchers & environmental teams

Bridge environmental information, reference material, and applied decisions.

05THE PROJECT TODAY

Research roots. Product ambitions.

Canopria builds on an independently developed environmental decision-support prototype. Its core retrieval and data-processing workflow has already been developed.

We are shaping that research into a usable tree-selection product. Next come verified environmental inputs, Claude API integration, external user validation, and pilot partnerships.

TODAY

Core RAG retrieval and data-processing workflow developed; public interface concept

NEXT

Verified environmental inputs and Claude API integration

PILOT GATE

Source checks and practitioner review on real planning questions

LET'S BUILDA BETTER WAY TO PLAN

Bring us a real planting question.

We are looking for conversations with municipal, landscape, and environmental teams to shape a pilot and test the value of a source-linked planning brief.
