Do I need to set up the whole operation at once?
No. Start with one crop, a few tasks, or a maintenance routine. The guided setup lets you skip anything you are not ready for. Add more rooms, teammates, and workflows as you get comfortable. You can get started without importing old records or connecting sensors.
Who builds and maintains Growgoyle?
Growgoyle is built and maintained by Eric Klamer, a senior software engineer and integration specialist with a background in hardware systems and IT. Eric works on MAGI ERP, designing manufacturing workflows and business-system integrations, and operates a commercial cultivation facility in Michigan. He brings that experience to developing, hosting, and maintaining Growgoyle. Learn more about Eric and his work.
Do I have to wait for the next crop?
No. Start with one room already in flower. Add a current crop to put its schedule in place, then add records as you and your team work. Scheduling, coordination, maintenance, and accountability are useful as soon as the facility is set up; you don’t need to wait for a completed-run analysis.
What if I’m the whole team?
You still have crops to plan, work to remember, equipment to maintain, and results to learn from. Start with the parts you need. You can add people without adding per-user charges.
Can I use it across multiple facilities?
Yes. Multi-facility operators can grant site-specific access, switch facilities from one login, and keep each facility’s operational record isolated. Every subscription includes unlimited team members and role-based access. Each independently operated physical cultivation site is billed separately.
What parts of the operation can Growgoyle run?
Growgoyle covers crop and room scheduling, daily and recurring work, assignments, timers, completion and missed-task history, preventive-maintenance schedules, SOPs, consumables and purchasing, environmental and irrigation records, alerts, harvests, labor and performance reporting, and multi-facility team access. It is not payroll, accounting, sales, or a general-purpose ERP. Keep those business systems where they already work and use Growgoyle to run the grow.
Does it work with my existing sensors and controllers?
Yes. Growgoyle offers direct connections for supported Pulse, TrolMaster, and AROYA devices and accounts, plus CSV imports for supported formats including Agrowtek, METER, and Sensaphone. Availability depends on the device and provider access. Your controller keeps controlling; Growgoyle brings the readings into the crop record. Ask Eric about your setup.
What happens when facility Wi-Fi drops?
Previously opened pages may remain available from the app’s local cache. On supported capture screens, PPFD, environmental readings, runoff, notes, photos, and interventions can be queued on that device and posted when Growgoyle reconnects. The Pending Sync screen shows anything still waiting. Offline support does not cover the whole app: scheduling changes, task actions, analysis, and pages that have not been opened require connectivity.
Where does AI fit in?
It supports photo analysis and investigation of your crop records. The foundation is your operation: plans, work, maintenance, and records. Analysis helps you investigate what happened; you make the growing decisions. See a contextual photo observation or the completed-run analysis.
Does Growgoyle prove what caused a result?
No. An observational cultivation record rarely isolates one variable well enough to prove causation. Growgoyle identifies plausible contributors and shows evidence that supports or weakens each interpretation. Modeled opportunity is not a forecast. The operator decides what to change. Read the analysis methodology.
How does facility pricing work?
One independently operated physical cultivation site is one billing unit at $499/month or $5,389/year. Rooms, buildings, licenses, zones, benches, cultivars, plant batches, users, and historical runs at one integrated site do not create extra units. Creating or reactivating a site on a paid subscription shows the exact prorated charge and requires billing approval; the site becomes operational only after payment succeeds. Deactivating a site preserves history and lowers the next renewal without a mid-cycle refund or credit. Reactivating that paid unit before renewal does not charge for it twice.
Can I see it without talking to sales?
Yes. Explore the view-only live demo or read the completed-run analysis without signing up. To create plans and try workflows with your own crop data, start a 30-day trial. No credit card required.
