Your location is used once, on this device, and is never stored. It is sent nowhere except the address lookup that labels the point. Pre-planning instead? Type any start point — location is never required.
🔁 Same start and finish — how long a walk do you want?
Start and end are the same place, so instead of a route there and back we'll build a loop that starts and ends here — not straight out and back the same way.
Safety rule: a route whose community safety score falls below 40/100 — or that uses a street flagged for a hazard that matters right now (like “poorly lit” after dark) — is excluded before routes are ranked by aliveness. Safety and Aliveness are never averaged into one number.
Starting walk…
You're off route.
Walk mode works while this page is open and the screen stays on — a website can't keep navigating in the background like an installed app can.
How was that route?
Pick “Rate this route” on a card, or tap a street segment, then rate it here.
Anything to flag?
Ratings are anonymous (a random on-device id, never a name), stored only on this device in this prototype. A street segment starts affecting routes only at 3+ ratings, and only as an aggregate — individual ratings are never shown.
Flag a street for review
Pick “Flag this street for review” on any street segment in a route card.
Reason (required)
0 / 280 · No name or contact details — submissions are anonymous.
A submission by itself never changes anyone's routes. It is not a rating and does not count toward the 3-rating threshold — only an approved review does anything.
Review queue — founder / moderator view
This is the moderation view, not part of the public app experience. In this prototype the queue lives in this device's local storage; in production it must move to a backend inbox only the founder sees. Pending submissions are never shown in the normal UI and never affect routes until approved here.
Demo: see safety change the route
Seeds three clearly-labelled demo ratings (separate store, separate demo devices) that call the main street on the current Alive route beautiful (5/5) but poorly lit and unsafe after dark (avg 1.3/5), switches to After dark, and re-picks the route. Watch the before/after and the explanation banner.
