TrailBrief In development
Backcountry guidance · fully offline

The pre-trip briefing that rides in your pocket.

Tell TrailBrief your trip — hunting five days in Montana, a weekend loop above treeline — and it prepares expert-vetted guidance for the scenarios that matter on that trip. In the field, it answers you from your phone alone: zero bars, low battery, no problem.

Trip-briefed

Built for this trip, not every trip

A short questionnaire before you leave — activity, season, terrain, party — becomes a focused pack of guidance for your realistic risks. Not a 400-page manual.

Zero bars

Works where your phone doesn't

Everything runs on your phone — understanding your question and finding the answer. No signal needed, designed to sip battery when you have 8% left.

Expert-signed

Vetted guidance, shown word-for-word

Guidance comes from playbooks written and signed by wilderness-medicine professionals — surfaced exactly as reviewed, never improvised by AI.

How it will work

1

Brief it before you go. On wifi, answer a few questions about the trip. TrailBrief assembles your pack — the scenarios that actually apply.

2

Ask it in the field. "I think my leg is broken and I'm alone." It understands the situation and opens the right playbook — offline, in seconds.

3

Follow vetted steps. Clear, calm, numbered guidance exactly as the reviewing clinician signed it — with when-to-evacuate always explicit.

And when you don't check back in

+

The check-in switch. Add people to your brief — if you're not back by your check-in time, TrailBrief automatically sends them your trip plan and exactly what to do next, in order. It nags you first, so a dead phone doesn't panic your family. The one safety net that works because you have no signal.

TrailBrief is in development, being built with wilderness-medicine review from day one. It will be a preparation and reference tool — not a substitute for training, professional medical care, or emergency services. When you can call for help, call for help.
