Brower gives trail-planning chatbots real paths to follow
Brower connects Claude, Mistral, or Grok to a route-planning service that returns mapped running, trail, and hiking routes with elevation, surface details, closures, and GPX files.

- Trail runners and hikers using conversational AI
- Worth noticing
- Account creation uses an identifier and passphrase, with no email address; Claude setup is one click, while Mistral and Grok require a connection link.
Field notes
The examples include constraints beyond distance, such as avoiding technical passages, limiting paved sections, and planning a multi-day hike with a refuge. Brower says each request produces three options and stores requested routes, including their versions, in a route notebook. The page also marks integration limits plainly: Mistral does not show the map in its response, and Grok's map display is not yet verified.
