How it works

Three taps between you and a finished plan

Route on the mapThe cart with charging stopsChef Mode choosing a café
01

Type a destination

Pick your car once — 700+ models with real battery and DC power data — set the current charge, type where you're going. The plan appears on the real road with the charging stop placed where the battery actually needs it.

02

Open your cart

Every stop with arrival charge, charge-to level and minutes from the curve; a rated café at the stop; weather along the route; arrival battery at your destination. Slide the current charge and the plan re-balances.

03

Make it yours with Chef Mode

Swap a stop for a better café or add a hotel night. ChargeChef re-checks feasibility live and keeps the arrival charge where you want it.

Why it's different

Every stop is checked against the road you'll actually drive

Real road, real detours

Every stop is verified against the actual driving distance. A charger across the motorway is caught and replaced.

700+ car models

Usable battery, consumption, DC peak power. Minutes follow a charge curve that slows as the battery fills.

Breaks that make sense

Rated cafés and restaurants at each stop; hotels for multi-day trips.

Do I need an account?

No. There is no sign-up. Your location is used only while the app is open, to place your starting point. See the Privacy PolicyTerms of Use.

Where does the station data come from?

Official registries where they exist — US/Canada AFDC, Bundesnetzagentur (DE), IRVE (FR), DOT-NL, Eco-Movement NAP (BE), EIPA (PL), NOBIL (Nordics), EPDK (TR) — plus Open Charge Map and OpenStreetMap. Everything is refreshed nightly and de-duplicated.

How is the trip cost shown?

In the currency of the country you're driving in, from average public fast-charging prices per country — so a trip across a border is priced in the right money on each side.

Android?
