About

Thanks to 3 years of R&D, and to the huge work we do on mapping the bike infrastructure, our app allows cyclists to find safer and more adapted routes. Our users are able to chose between several options, ranging from the safest to the shortest, but the route we will recommend will always be adapted. The app integrates a lot of other useful features: touristics rides, parkings, bike sharing stations, personal statistics, Waze-like reports... In addition, the data our users provide us with is analyzed and integrated in a dashboard that we sell to cities. This dashboard allows cities to better understand the way cyclists move in their streets: which routes do they prefer, which road do they avoid, what is their average speed on each street, what is the road condition, what are the dangerous intersections...? The city will also have access to the reports that our users send through the app (reporting potholes, or dangerous spots).
