TrailPermit

TrailPermit is a mobile + web app that prevents wasted adventure trips by telling you, with high confidence, whether your plan is actually doable today. It aggregates hard-to-find permit requirements, seasonal road/trail closures, fire restrictions, timed-entry rules, and last-minute alerts across parks, forests, and popular trailheads. Users build a trip card (date, location, activity, vehicle type), and the app outputs a simple “Go / Risky / No-go” status with the exact reason and links to official sources. It also provides a checklist of what to book (permits, parking, shuttle), deadlines, and backup options nearby. This is a combination traditional + AI app: AI helps normalize messy agency pages, parse PDFs, and summarize rule changes, but the product’s value is accuracy, citations, and fast updates—not chatty recommendations.
