Built for enthusiasts
The rerides. The long walk across the park. The queue that felt shorter than expected. We’re building for the details you want to revisit.
Synthetic example · Cedar Point
A whole day has a shape.
Generated test fixes, processed by the classifier. Not a real guest’s day. Lines = trail; diamonds = stays.

Privacy, plainly
Recording a day uses precise location, including in the background. Captured points are uploaded to PRKS’s server to work out the day’s rides, waits, and walks.
