You see the whole picture.The operation and the money behind it.
The part your customers never see
A great day outside
starts with a shop that works.
Your customers see the adventure. You see the messages, availability checks, equipment returns, guide changes and payments that make it happen.
Outdoor Grid is being built to connect those moving parts in one system, with AI support planned as part of the workflow.
The system we are building
Every part of the business.
Connected to the next.
Built around the shop, across sports and activities. These are the planned workflow areas; we will agree what is ready for your pilot.
Fleet & equipment
Know which items are available, assigned, out with a customer or unavailable for maintenance. Configure the equipment your business actually rents.
Crew & schedules
Connect the day's work with the people doing it, from seasonal guides to workshop staff and freelancers.
Customer support
Give AI support your own shop knowledge, with clear routes to a person when a question or a change needs your team.
Payments & finances
Connect the operational picture with payments, refunds, costs and reporting so the owner can understand the business behind the bookings.
Your customer experience
Keep your shop's identity on the public booking experience, with a connected operation behind it.

A few useful answers
Before we talk.
Is Outdoor Grid available now?
Outdoor Grid is in development. We are inviting operators to discuss an early pilot. The workflow areas on this page describe the product direction; availability, scope and timing will be agreed before any pilot starts.
Is it only for bike shops?
No. The system is being built around configurable equipment and activity operations. Rental shops and tour businesses working with different outdoor sports are part of the intended audience.
Do I have to replace my existing software?
We will map your current setup first. A full replacement and a connected front layer are both product directions. Compatibility with your existing system needs to be checked before we promise an integration.
What will a pilot cost?
Pricing is not published yet. We will agree the setup, pilot scope, support and price with you in advance, including what happens when the pilot ends.
Who is behind Outdoor Grid?
Outdoor Grid is a product from HowTheF, the team building AI and operational systems. The product has its own focus: the business behind outdoor rentals and activities.
