About Going Nowhere

Going Nowhere is an independent software development studio founded in 2024 by Wilson Goode.

This site is used for announcing major updates to the software in our portfolio, documentation and user guides.

Our Beliefs

We believe that we are all part of an interconnected earth. There is no escape from this reality, so we must confront it with honesty and integrity. The dominant economic systems and cultures on our planet have been driving critical earth systems towards breaking points at a concerning rate. We want to continue living on this planet, so we should do what we can with the skills, tools, and resources available to us. For Going Nowhere, that means being a force-multiplier for people wanting to make smart long-term choices about their local ecosystems and communities. It means making the world's knowledge accessible and useful in the real world.

Our Software

Home Ecologist

An app for Apple devices that helps with the design and management of your own permaculture system. Integrate your observations from iNaturalist. Record notes and track anything you want through measures. See documented ecological relationships from Global Biotic Interactions or add your own from experience and observation. Plan plant communities using plant information from Wikipedia and Permapeople. Think like an ecosystem!

Fair Pricing

Our software balances creating real value for our customers against the need for long-term sustainability. When we say sustainability, we mean it. We want to be able to make useful tools for the long term. Our paid apps support ongoing development work and allow us to make an honest living. We hope you'll find our pricing to be reasonable.
