Summary
Baiker is a conversational route planner that helps you design custom cycling routes using plain language prompts. Instead of configuring complex navigation settings, you can simply type what you want — such as your target distance, duration, starting point, or preferred region. Baiker will present up to three route options with brief descriptions to help you choose the perfect ride.
Key benefits of Baiker
Natural language planning: Describe your ride idea in simple words without overthinking exact routing parameters.
Chat and tweak as you go: Not quite what you were looking for? Just reply to Baiker in the chat. Ask it to "change the start location", "extend the ride to 50 km", "add a lunch stop", or "find a flatter route", and Baiker will instantly suggest a new set of routes based on your feedback.
Quick ideas to get you started: Not sure what to type? Tap handy built-in phrases like "from my current location", "gravel ride", "avoid busy roads", or "around 40 km" to build your request with just a single tap.
Detailed route summaries: Each suggested route includes a concise description highlighting difficulty, terrain types, and road traffic levels.
Point of Interest (POI) integration: Baiker can discover and incorporate places along your route, including restaurants, historical sights, scenic spots, and e-bike charging stations.
Easy editing: Open the full route preview and tap the pencil icon to edit the route just as you normally would and save it to your profile.
Write in any language: Feel free to type your requests in any language you like. Just note that Baiker will always reply and present its route descriptions in your app's display language.
Availability: Baiker is available on Android devices across Europe and the United States. It is accessible to all users, offering limited use for Free accounts and full access for Cyclers Plus users. We are actively working on expanding to other regions as well as bringing Baiker to iOS devices.
Note on Beta status & Feedback: Baiker is currently in Beta testing. Your user feedback is crucial to helping us train, refine, and improve this feature. You can share your thoughts via the short in-app feedback survey or by going to Get Help > Send us a message > Feedback or New Feature.
