It should combine route planning, daily stages, route-corridor logistics, local rules, offline use, and bikepacking-specific route suitability. + +## Positioning + +**BikepackPilot** is for riders who need answers beyond “which road/path connects A to B?” + +It answers: + +- Can I ride this with a loaded bike? +- Where can I sleep tonight? +- How far to the next reliable water? +- Is there food before shops close? +- What if this forest road is closed? +- Where is the nearest bike shop or bailout train? +- Can the plan still work offline? + +## Primary users + +1. **Weekend bikepacker**: 2–3 days, wants low stress, legal sleep options, reliable water/food. +2. **Long-distance tourer**: multi-week trip, needs offline maps, resupply, device export, budget sleep. +3. **Gravel/adventure rider**: wants maximum dirt but still rideable on a loaded bike. +4. **Remote-route rider**: needs dry-stretch warnings, bailout options, weather exposure, repair planning. +5. **E-bikepacker**: needs charging points, range-aware stages, charger-friendly overnight stops. + +## Differentiation from general route planners + +The differentiator is not access to a secret map dataset. Major outdoor planners often use OpenStreetMap as a foundation. The differentiator is the proprietary layer built on top: + +- bikepacking suitability score, +- rideability with loaded bike, +- water/food/sleep gaps, +- local rules confidence, +- trusted local reports, +- offline route-corridor intelligence, +- multi-day staging optimized around logistics. + +## MVP outcome + +A user should be able to plan a 3–7 day trip, inspect stage cards, see critical POIs, export a route, and save an offline pack.
