Meet TraiLink
With TraiLink, you always know.
TraiLink is a small tracker that rides with each person in your group, on sleds, ATVs, and dirt bikes, or clipped to a pack for hiking, hunting, and anywhere else the day takes you. The devices link together on their own, creating a private signal that travels with your crew wherever it goes.
- Live location every 2 seconds
- Works without cell service
- No satellite plan
- No subscription required
Your phone can't do this alone. Tracking apps need cell towers. TraiLink brings its own network.
Each TraiLink works on its own, sending and receiving right from the unit. Pair it over Bluetooth and the free TraiLink app becomes a live map of everyone: position, speed, direction, and the breadcrumb trail that got them there.
How it works
Three steps. No settings.
Power on
Clip it to your gear or mount it to your machine. TraiLink finds your group automatically. No setup ritual, no pulling off your gloves.
Ride
Every TraiLink quietly shares its position with the group, passing signals rider-to-rider past hills and heavy timber.
Glance
Open the app for the live map and messaging, or read the LED display at a glance without touching your phone.
The network
Why it doesn't cut out when the trees get thick
Walkie-talkies need a straight shot between two people. One big hill and you're shouting into static. TraiLink works differently: every device in your group passes signals along for everyone else. Your buddies aren't just on your map. They're carrying the network with you.
Every device relays
Messages and positions hop device-to-device, reaching past hills and heavy timber.
One link keeps it alive
As long as a single connection stays active, the whole network holds together.
Routes around obstacles
One big hill isn't a dead end. Signals hop rider to rider around whatever's in the way.
Engineers call it a mesh network. We call it never losing anyone.
The live map
Your whole crew on one live map
Every rider in your group appears on the same map, updating as often as every 2 seconds, each trailing the path they have ridden. No cell service required.
- Breadcrumb trails. Follow the exact path your group has ridden
- Offline maps. High-resolution satellite and topographic maps, downloaded before you ride
- Group messaging. Text your crew with no cell service
- Group notifications. Know the moment someone drops back or needs you
- Shared waypoints. Drop and share points of interest, all off-grid
- Save and share trails. Keep your routes and send them to the group
- Device settings. Configure your TraiLink right from the app
The LED Display
Who's connected, who needs you, at a glance
The LED Display is an accessory that plugs into your TraiLink over USB-C. Mount it wherever you can glance at it, on your bars, a chest strap, or your pack, and each rider shows up as their colour, online or offline.
Colour and connection status
Powered by your TraiLink
One-press alerts
Hold it. The whole crew knows.
Press and hold the display, exactly like on the trail. Hold longer to reach the bigger alerts, then let go and watch the crew light up in your colour.
- Stop, Help, or SOS. Chosen by how long you hold
- Sent to everyone. In your colour, across the whole group
- IP65 sealed. Readable in direct sun or deep snow
Press and hold to send an alert
Ride with your family
Your 10-year-old doesn't need a phone to show up on your map
Give your kid a TraiLink and they're on the map the moment you set out. No phone in their pocket, no account to set up, no plan to pay for. You always know where they are, and one button press reaches the whole group.
- No phone for them. Built-in GPS tracks each rider on its own.
- Every rider, big or small, on one shared live map.
- Ride out of range? You get a heads-up and their last known spot stays pinned, with heading and breadcrumb trail to follow.
- Works on sleds, ATVs, dirt bikes, bikes, or on foot.

FAQ
Before you ask
Do I need a subscription?
No. You buy the device once and tracking is free for good. The network is your group's devices talking to each other, so there is nothing to activate and no plan to keep alive.
How many devices does my group need?
One per person, minimum two. More riders means a stronger, longer-reaching network.
Does it use cell service or satellites?
Neither. TraiLink devices create their own private long-range signal between your group. That's why there is nothing to pay monthly and no dead zones between you.
What's the real range?
Up to 15 km device-to-device on open ice or fields, and typically 1–3 km in dense forest. Because every device relays for the group, a spread-out crew reaches much farther than any single link.
Do I need my phone?
The app gives you the full live map and messaging, but TraiLink tracks standalone with built-in GPS and route history, and the LED display shows group status at a glance. Gloves on, phone in your pack.
Can I track my kids?
Absolutely. Your kids don't need a phone or an account. Their TraiLink tracks on its own with built-in GPS, so a young rider just clips one on and shows up on your map like everyone else. If they ride out of range, you get a heads-up and their last known spot stays pinned, with heading and breadcrumb trail, so you know exactly where to head.
iPhone and Android?
Both. The free TraiLink app is on the App Store and Google Play.
What conditions does it handle?
Proven on Ontario snowmobile trails in snow, slush, and cold, and its sealed, rugged build shrugs off summer heat, dust, and rain just the same. One device, every season.
Can it call Search & Rescue?
No. TraiLink is group-to-group, not an SOS beacon. It's how your crew finds each other. For summoning outside rescue anywhere on Earth, a satellite SOS device is the right companion tool.
Does everyone in my group need the app running?
No. Every TraiLink shows up on the group's map whether or not that person has their phone out, so kids and passengers get tracked without one of their own. The app is where each rider sees the map, messages, and settings.
Can I load my own maps?
Yes. Download offline maps and import KML/KMZ overlays (trail networks, event boundaries, canoe routes) right into the app.
