Overland vehicles on scenic mountain trail
Pre-Launch — Be First In Line

Your trip deserves
more than a doc.

The Dirt Brief turns your overland routes, bikepacking plans, and group trips into beautiful interactive pages your crew will actually use.

The Problem

Your crew deserves better than a Google Doc.

You spend hours planning the perfect route. You research camps, resupply points, bail-out options. Then you paste it all into a shared doc and get back...

“Looks great!”

No questions. No feedback. No idea if anyone even read it. Your crew deserves a trip page that invites real engagement.

Interactive Maps

Import your route. Watch it come alive.

Upload GPX files from GAIA GPS, OnX Offroad, Komoot, or any mapping app. Your crew sees the full route with camps, waypoints, and points of interest plotted on a beautiful interactive map.

Real Feedback

Know what your crew actually thinks.

Quick reactions, anonymous concerns, and Q&A let participants share honest feedback. No more 'looks great!' as the only response to hours of planning.

Gear Coordination

Show up prepared, not duplicated.

Shared gear checklist lets everyone claim items and see what's still needed. No more three people bringing recovery boards and nobody bringing a first aid kit.
