A tool I built for myself.

I live in Central Florida and I love the outdoors. Hiking, walking, racquet sports, the beach and boating — most of my best hours happen outside.

In 2024, I had Mohs surgery for basal cell carcinoma. The procedure went fine. What caught me off guard was afterward — I suddenly had to rethink how I was using the outdoors. Sun protection stopped being an afterthought and became a real priority: wound care, UV timing, sun exposure windows, the works. On top of that, I've had asthma my whole life, so air quality and pollen were never casual inputs either.

Between the skin care and the asthma, outdoor time started requiring a surprising amount of planning. And mainstream weather apps weren't built for any of it.

Weather apps answer "will it rain?" They don't answer "is right now a good time for me, specifically, to go outside?"

Canopy is my answer. It surfaces the real windows in your day when conditions line up — usually more than one. The clearest window gets the hero spot; the others show underneath, scored, so you can plan around your life rather than the app's preference. Every score is weighted for the conditions that actually matter to you.

Canopy is made by Sunworth Labs, a division of Sunworth — a company focused on healthy living in the built and natural environment. No ads, no tracking. Just a clean answer to "when should I go out?"
