PermaGuide: The Digital Permaculture Systems Architect
Most permaculture advice ends with a frustrating phrase: "It depends."
Most permaculture advice ends with a frustrating phrase: "It depends."
While true, that doesn't help you when you are standing in a muddy field holding a shovel. You don't need more philosophy; you need a build plan.
We built the PermaGuide to bridge the gap between theory and engineering. This is not a video course. It is a computational design tool that treats your homestead like a biological machine.
It helps you assemble a "stack" of functional systems—water, food, energy, and soil—and then generates a cohesive, step-by-step implementation roadmap tailored to your specific bio-region.

Interact with the tool below to build your custom ecosystem bundle.

Select Your Context: Tell the system if you are on arid clay, temperate loam, or in a tropical wet zone. The logic engine adjusts the advice immediately.
Assemble Your Guild: Drag and drop systems into your bundle. Choose from Swales, Greywater Basins, Rocket Stoves, Silvopasture, and more.
Run the Resilience Lab: Before you checkout, the tool runs a simulation against your design.
Will it survive a 100-day drought?

If not, the system will tell you exactly what you are missing.

Why "Copy-Paste" Permaculture Fails
Why "Copy-Paste" Permaculture Fails
And how the Bio-Circuitry Engine fixes it.
And how the Bio-Circuitry Engine fixes it.
A swale that works in Texas will cause a landslide in Vermont. A wicking bed perfect for an urban balcony will rot the roots of a tomato plant in a rainy tropical valley.
The PermaGuide uses a proprietary Logic Engine to prevent these errors. It utilizes a "Shadow Library"—a database of known failure modes. If you try to combine incompatible systems, or if you neglect the "Maintenance Debt" of your design, the tool alerts you before you waste money on infrastructure.
The "Vending Machine" Philosophy
The "Vending Machine" Philosophy
We designed this tool to function like a vending machine for blueprints.
You don't need to pay thousands of dollars for a consultant to tell you how to build a compost bay.
No Subscriptions: You pay once for the design you build.
Site-Specific: The "Implementation Watchlist" changes based on your soil type.
Engineering Grade: The outputs aren't rough sketches; they are schematic-level diagrams showing flow, inputs, and outputs.

This interactive tool complements our educational resources by:
Turning theory into applied design logic
Connecting articles, principles, and systems
Giving learners a way to think like a designer
It’s not a replacement for learning — it’s the bridge between learning and doing.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What exactly do I get when I unlock the guide?
What exactly do I get when I unlock the guide?
You receive a dynamically generated "Gold Master" Field Guide. This acts as a printable manuscript for your project. It organizes your chosen systems into chronological order (Phase 1: Hydrology, Phase 2: Infrastructure, etc.), provides a consolidated "Bill of Materials" estimate, and creates a quarterly operational almanac so you know exactly what to do in Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter.
Does this work for small urban spaces?
Does this work for small urban spaces?
Yes. The tool allows you to filter by constraint. If you select "Limited Space," the engine prioritizes high-density vertical systems like Hydroponic Towers, Wicking Beds, and Mushroom Logs, while hiding broad-acre systems like Swales or Silvopasture.
Why is there a "Resilience Score"?
Why is there a "Resilience Score"?
Sustainability is not the same as resilience. A system can be sustainable but fragile. Our Resilience Lab runs stress tests on your bundle. For example, if you design a food system that relies entirely on electric pumps, the system will flag a "Grid Dependency Risk" and suggest adding a gravity-fed backup.
Can I modify my build later?
Can I modify my build later?
Yes. Your purchase comes with a unique License Key. You can return to the Architect at any time, enter your key, and adjust your system loadout—adding new modules as your site evolves—and re-generate your Field Guide at no extra cost.
