A safety layer built for the places regular map apps let you down —ghat roads, forest routes, and trekking trails across Karnataka and Kerala. Verified offline maps, approved checkpoints, live family tracking, and SOS to the nearest police, forest, and tourism authorities.
Large stretches of ghat and forest road sit outside reliable mobile coverage.
Trails fork and forest roads look alike — it's easy to drift off the safe route.
Landslide zones, wildlife crossings, and hairpins aren't always signed.
Family and authorities often don't know a traveller's exact last location.
When you're approaching a ghat road, forest boundary, or trekking trailhead, RutMe auto-detects the route using your latitude, longitude, altitude, and direction of travel — then adapts what it shows you.
Detects uphill vs. downhill movement and surfaces contextual driving guidance — engine braking on descents, overtaking caution on hairpins, fog and landslide alerts tied to the exact stretch of road you're on.
For treks, forest walks, and waterfall visits: log your activity type, group size, and expected return time before you start. RutMe tracks checkpoint progress and flags it automatically if you're overdue.
