The problem it solves

You want to run outside but don't want to check three different apps for weather, air quality, and whether you actually have time today. On bad air days you might not think to check at all, and end up running somewhere unsafe or in the blazing sun.

Who it fits

Anyone who runs trails regularly and wants a quick daily go or no-go decision.

How it works

  1. A daily schedule starts the check
  2. It looks at your calendar for a scheduled run today
  3. It checks current air quality and cancels the recommendation if it's unhealthy
  4. It checks the weather and favors shaded trails when it's hot or sunny
  5. It picks the best trail from your list and emails you the recommendation
What you get

The safest trail picked for today

You get a daily recommendation for the best, safest trail to run based on today's weather and air quality.

What you get

A daily email naming the best trail to run today, or a note to skip it.

What you need

A Google account for Calendar and Sheets, a weather or air quality API key, and a Google Gemini API key.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
