The story is in the landscape.
Your tools read it.

The land has elevation. The trail has grade. Your rig has a number of days left in the tanks. None of that is our invention — we build the readers that make it legible.

The instruments

Two readers, one grammar.

RigSense

The land tells a story. Your rig reads it.

For RVers, vanlifers, and overlanders who camp off-grid. RigSense pairs with the sensors already on your rig (tanks, batteries, solar, tires) and answers the question that decides every stay: how many days do we have?

RidgeSense

The trail tells a story. Your stride reads it.

For thru-hikers and long-distance backpackers. Plan the expedition before you leave, check in from the trail with one press, and give the people at home a way to know something is wrong before you can tell them yourself.

How we build

Rules we don't bend.

Offline-first

The places these apps are for don't have signal. Core engines run on the device, and the design assumes coverage will drop — RigSense works fully offline, and RidgeSense's safety net fires when you go quiet, not when your phone gets through.

Safety is never paywalled

Severe-weather and fire alerts in RigSense, SOS and emergency escalation in RidgeSense — free on every tier. In RidgeSense that rule is enforced by an automated test, not a policy document.

Conditions, not promises

We tell you the weather window, the tank levels, the stay limit. What you do with the reading is your call. We describe; we don't guarantee.

Subscriptions pay for the servers

No ads and no third-party tracking SDKs. Revenue comes from subscriptions, and the published privacy policy is explicit: personal data is never sold, shared, or monetized.

The family

One pattern, three terrains.

Every Topo Intel product follows the same two-sentence grammar. What changes is the terrain.

The company

Founder-run and veteran-owned, in Boerne, Texas.

Topo Intel LLC is an independent software company founded by Chris Weis, a veteran and active RVer. The rig that tests RigSense is the one he camps in, running the same Victron and Mopeka hardware the app pairs with. Feedback goes directly to the founder.
