Nathan Appelgate
Co-Founder

Nathan brings a rare combination of environmental expertise and creative strategy to habit@. With a B.S. in Environmental Science & Policy from California State University, Long Beach, he has applied his technical knowledge across some of the most demanding environments in the industry — including Raytheon Intelligence & Space, Michael Baker International, and Rosendin Electric.

Alongside his environmental career, Nathan has spent a decade as a creative consultant, crafting visual storytelling for globally recognized brands. That cross-disciplinary background — rigorous science paired with clear, compelling communication — is central to how habit@ is built and positioned.

Scott Archer
Co-Founder

Scott is a seasoned environmental and civil professional with over a decade of field and project leadership experience. Having worked with Bianchi Electric, RES Group, and Rosendin Electric, he has built a rare fluency in both the technical and operational dimensions of large-scale infrastructure and renewables projects.

Scott's career trajectory — from hands-on field labor to managing multi-hundred-million-dollar renewable energy projects contributing hundreds of megawatts to grids across the United States — reflects the same drive and precision he brings to habit@. His deep understanding of how compliance functions in the real world shapes every decision we make as a company.

What we stand for
01
Precision over assumption

Compliance documentation must be defensible. We build tools that produce authoritative, source-verified data — not approximations.

02
Automation in service of professionals

We automate the routine so environmental professionals can apply their expertise where it matters most — in the field, not at a spreadsheet.

03
Built for the real world

Our tools are shaped by direct field experience. We understand what inspectors, QSPs, and QSDs actually need — because we've been there.

habit@ is currently in early access. We're working directly with a select group of environmental professionals to refine our platform before a wider release. If you manage SWPPP programs and want to be first in line, we'd love to hear from you.
