The World’s First OutdoorHealth & Safety Platform.

The outdoors is changing, faster and more dangerously than ever before. Heatwaves, flash floods, wildfire smoke, and unpredictable terrain are now part of everyday life for adventurers and outdoor workers alike.

GOES is the first platform to quantify these environmental risks and translate them into clear, actionable guidance. By combining real-time data, medical intelligence, and human-centered design, we help people and organizations stay ahead of danger and act with confidence in the wild.

The Outdoor Health & Safety Gap is Growing

176 million Americans work or recreate outdoors every year. Environmental data like weather forecasting, air quality monitoring, UV indexes have never been more abundant. But clear, actionable, and safety guidance based on those environmental conditions? It barely exists.

The gap between environmental risk and human safety is widening.

We built GOES to close it.

Environmental Risk to Operational Readiness.

Quantifying environmental risks is only half the battle. Knowing what it means for human safety, and how to mitigate the risk is critical. GOES is the translation layer between environmental conditions and human safety.

Every weather app can tell you it’s 103°F. Only GOES compounds signals like elevation, humidity, or activity intensity to identify that heat illness risk is critical, and exactly what to do about it. See how it works under the hood

Without GOES

  • Worker gets “103°F forecast.”
  • No operational guidance.
  • No compliance documentation.

With GOES

  • Worker gets “Heat Illness Risk: HIGH — 15-min break every 45 min. Hydrate 12 oz/hr.”
  • Timestamped compliance records.

Your Workflow. Our Risk Intelligence.

GOES works in two layers: an Engine that quantifies environmental risk, and Applications that make it actionable.
