OpenRoadie
An open-source AI copilot for the road.
OpenRoadie makes your iPhone aware of the drive: where you are, the road you're on, the speed limit, the weather, and your whole day laid out as a timeline. For any car.
iPhone, iOS 26 or later. TestFlight coming soon. Apache 2.0.
What works today
It records your drives and lays your day back out for you, all on the device. Still early and rough.
One-tap drives
Tap Start Drive and go. It keeps recording through red lights and gas stops. Or turn on automatic drive detection and let it start and end trips on its own.
Road awareness
The road you're on and its speed limit, from OpenStreetMap, with optional speed alerts.
A day timeline
Drives, walks, and stops as cards, with each stop named (coffee, store, gym) and the walk between them.
Weather per drive
Conditions, temperature, and air quality from Open-Meteo, stamped on every drive.
Maps
Every trip drawn as a route colored by speed, with the photos you took that day placed where you took them.
Roadie, on device
An optional voice assistant and nearby search for food, coffee, gas, and chargers. Runs on Apple's on-device model, or a model you bring.
Ask your drive
OpenRoadie turns phone telemetry and open map data into context an AI can understand.
Principles
Settled decisions, not open questions.
- Open source. Apache 2.0, the app and the core.
- Local first. Your driving data stays on your device.
- Free by default. On-device models and open data where possible.
- Model agnostic. Use the system model or bring your own.
- Navigation agnostic. Works alongside Apple Maps, Google Maps, Waze, or your car's nav.
- No crippleware. The open app is never limited to make you pay.
Built in the open
