Crowdsourced road intelligence
One bump is a clue. Ten matching bumps are evidence.
The app accounts for speed, phone orientation, GPS accuracy, and repeat detections before a location earns a bad-road rating.
Drive normally
With permission, the app measures road movement in the background.
Confirm the pattern
Matching readings from separate drives distinguish road trouble from a dropped phone.
Improve the map
Road scores update as conditions worsen, crews make repairs, and drivers return.
Own a Tesla?
Could your Tesla help map rough roads?
We’re researching whether built-in Tesla sensor and dashcam data could help measure road conditions—potentially without running a phone app. This is an idea under evaluation, not a released integration.

Interested in helping us test it?
We’re looking for owners who may be willing to share a sample dashcam clip, test a small TeslaCam USB device, or try a future direct integration.
