01Our mission
Drais brings everything about your cycling life into one place, so you spend less time keeping track of it and more time riding.
02Our vision
A world where every rider has their whole cycling life in one place.
03How it started
I didn't set out to build an app. I set out to fix my own mess.
Two bikes, a drawer of receipts, a spreadsheet I kept meaning to update, and a service history I mostly tracked by gut feeling. I like doing my own work on my bikes, but I could never answer the simple questions. When did I last replace my chain? Is this part even compatible? Do I already own that tool, or did I just think about buying it?
The breaking point was a day I'd set aside to service a fork. I had a YouTube tab open and my sleeves rolled up. Halfway through, I found out I didn't have the tool I needed. Shop trip. Day gone.
I wanted one place that knew my bikes, my parts and my tools better than I did.
So I decided to build it.

More than maintenance: the people you ride with
But cycling was never only about the bike. I rode with friends, asked for advice on forums, and swapped tips and gear. I was tracking rides in one app, finding people to ride with in a group chat and asking questions somewhere else again. It didn't take long to realize I wanted it all in one place.

Bikes. Gear. Rides. People. Four words that sum up why I am building Drais: knowing your bikes, caring for your gear, keeping track of your rides and finding the people to share them with.
05What Drais is for
Every rider's cycling life looks different, so Drais adapts to yours.
Some riders do every job themselves. Others leave it to a bike shop. Most of us do a bit of both.
Either way, Drais keeps the whole picture together: what's fitted, what's wearing out and what work has already been done. Use it to prepare a job at home, or to explain clearly what your bike needs when you drop it off at the shop.
If you never pick up a tool, that's fine too. Drais is still where you keep track of everything and meet your community. Find riders near you, plan a ride for this afternoon instead of next month, and put your questions to the community.
