The Problem

After Every Flight, You Have Questions

Most pilots land not knowing what went right and what went wrong. Without data, improvement is guesswork.

🌀

"Was that thermal actually good?"

⬆️

"Did I leave climbs too early?"

📐

"Was my glide efficient?"

👁️

"Did I miss thermals along track?"

📊

"Why did other pilots climb better?"

⚠️

"Was my landing approach risky?"

✈️

Features

Everything You Need to Fly Better

Six powerful analysis modules, all from a single IGC file upload.

Thermal Analysis

Understand how well you centered thermals and how strong they were. Compare centering quality, climb rates, and time-in-core across all thermals in your flight.

Glide Efficiency

Analyze glide ratios and speed decisions between thermals. See where you lost height unnecessarily and how adjusting your speed could improve performance.

Missed Thermals

Detect lift you flew past. Parametrics identifies potential thermals along your track that you didn't use, so you can train yourself to recognize them earlier.

Risk Metrics

Identify dangerous low saves and risky decisions in your flight. Understand when you were flying close to limits and what patterns to watch out for.

Batch Comparison

Compare your flight with stronger pilots flying the same conditions. See exactly where the gap appears — thermal selection, glide, centering, or climb rate.

Coaching Summary

Automated insights explaining how you can improve. Receive a readable summary highlighting your strongest moments and where the most gains are available.

Pilot Stories

Pilots Who Fly Better With Data

"I immediately saw why I was climbing worse than others. The thermal centering analysis was eye-opening — I had no idea how much height I was wasting."
