Technology

Tracking, telemetry, operations, event intelligence and in‑depth data analytics

PlatformLive

Telematics & Telemetry

Everything that moves: competitors, motorcycles, vehicles, crew and officials, on purpose-designed hardware or mobile phones. From position on a map, to controlling the operation, to data analytics.

  • Live tracking: trackers and phones, side-by-side, with customised branding, map overlays and points of interest
  • Race control & operations: purpose-built dashboards and views for smooth operations, including competitor status and safety, event notifications and SOS handling
  • Telemetry: hardware, software and biometric data collection, correlation and analysis
  • Live dashboards: real-time telemetry on screen per customer, starting with bike and tracker electrics
  • Commentary & broadcast: live race order, distance and speed views for commentators and live video
  • Athletes: rides, places and connected health data, private to the athlete
  • Data analytics: detailed analytics and reporting during and after training and event days
PlatformLive

Event Intelligence

An AI assistant for events that lives where people already are: on the event's website, Telegram and WhatsApp. It answers from the event's own information and keeps organisers informed about what people need.

  • Answers: schedules, places, rules and results, on request
  • Follow a rider: progress updates for fans and family
  • Sponsors: sponsor messages, with limits on how often
  • Insights: what people asked, so organisers can fill the gaps
CapabilityLive

Artificial Intelligence

Precise and careful use where it earns its place: in very specific features and functions, and in support of development.

CapabilityLive

Integration

Integration to and from external third-party systems through APIs and webhooks, extending what the platforms can do.

CapabilityLive

Timing

Official timing alongside live tracking, on the same screens: checkpoint and lap times next to where each competitor actually is, always labelled with their source.

  • Race control: official times beside each competitor's live position and status
  • Race order: live order from timing, with tracking filling the gaps between timing points
AppComing soon

One app, every role

One app for iPhone and Android, in the brand of the event, team or customer. What it shows depends on who signs in.

  • Riders: tracking, SOS and navigation, built for no signal
  • Crews and fans: follow a rider, with alerts when it matters
  • Organisers and teams: race operations and fleet health in hand
ApproachLive

Open foundations, custom where it matters

Proven open-source software where it makes sense, so the effort goes into the parts that make the difference. Those are designed and built in-house, for the conditions they have to work in.

  • Open source: established platforms for tracking, data, mapping and the web
  • Built in-house: the features and functions that set our solutions apart

Behind the scenes

The interesting and unusual numbers

Every event leaves a trail. These all came straight out of the tracking data.

241km/h

The fastest any tracker has moved: a helicopter over a race course, late on race day

11.2g

The hardest hit recorded on a bike, at an EnduroCross: one of 18 over 8 g across four short races

1.4×

Laps of the planet ridden in three race days: 55,016 km tracked on course

145days

Of riding tracked over three race days: 3,491 hours, end to end

2,775m

The highest a tracker has been: the helicopter, 91 m above the highest rider

1,711km

Travelled by one crew member, by car and bike, in the nine days around a single race

How we work

From a napkin to the mountain

Every project moves through four stages, from the first sketch to running it day to day.

  1. 01

    Sketch

    Understand the requirement or the problem, and the conditions it has to work in.

  2. 02

    Prototype

    Translate it into a functional prototype, and prove it with real data.

  3. 03

    Build

    Build the operational solution, focused on features and function, reliability and stability.

  4. 04

    Operate

    Deliver and operate it, report on it and analyse the results.

In the field

Where it counts (and tracks)

Ideas are only worth it when they survive the conditions and the ultimate test: high mountains and deep valleys.
