Cycling can be a great way to get around a city, but it's often difficult to find good routes that feel safe. We believe that more people would bike if they had access to better bike directions.
Existing bicycle routing technologies can be great, but they have serious drawbacks:
- No standard ranking system for streets -- riders don't know what to expect from the algorithm
- No transparency of tradeoffs between speed, ease of memorization, and stressfulness -- riders don't know whether a given route will feel safe or not.
- No personalization based on stress tolerance -- riders can't provide their parameters to find a low-stress ride
