Embark on Adventure with actionsync!
ActionSync started with a simple frustration. Guides, instructors, and outdoor communities were stitching together a dozen disconnected tools to do one thing: go outside together, safely.
WhatsApp for coordination. Strava for GPS. Avenza for maps. Google Sheets for bookings. Word of mouth for conditions. Email for clients.
None of those tools understand terrain. None of them connect the people who know a place best with the people who need that knowledge.
ActionSync is built to replace the whole stack.
-
A community platform for guides, instructors, and outdoor enthusiasts across Canada and the US. It combines real-time terrain intelligence, GPS session recording, community conditions reporting, and a full guide business layer — in one place, with no ads, no algorithms, and no data selling.
The map is the feed. Pan across terrain and the community signal board updates — conditions reports, field logs, guide drop-ins, crew locations, events. No searching. No hashtags. What's happening nearby comes to you.
Every post is anchored to GPS data. You can't fake being there.
-
Certified mountain guides and outdoor instructors who need professional tools that actually understand the backcountry.
Recreational adventurers who want access to guide-quality conditions intelligence.
Outdoor clubs, teams, and crews who want to coordinate, explore, and stay safe together.
Anyone who goes outside and wants to find others who go to the same places they do.
-
Pro guides get a complete business layer — program listings, booking management, automated client communication, digital waivers, and revenue tracking.
Pro accounts require verified credentials before the business layer unlocks. A client booking through ActionSync knows the guide is who they say they are.
-
The platform exists to serve the people who know the terrain — not to monetize their attention.
Your GPS data stays on your device until you choose to share it. A guide can log 50 trips and appear nowhere publicly. Privacy is the default, not a setting buried in a menu.
No ads. No algorithmic feed. No follower counts. No selling user data.
The feed shows what's nearby and relevant. The community decides what matters.
-
ActionSync is the beginning of something bigger. Terrain intelligence that compounds over time. Conditions data that gets more accurate with every debrief filed. A record of where communities go outside — and what's worth protecting.
If you know the terrain, this is where you share what you know.
If you're looking for that knowledge, this is where you find it.
Welcome to ActionSync; your adventure awaits!

Strategic partnership Invitation
Reach the people who actually go outside.
Not impressions. Not demographics. Verified presence in real terrain, with real communities, doing real things outside.
-
Most platforms sell you an audience that includes outdoor enthusiasts. ActionSync is built exclusively for people who go outside — guides, instructors, clubs, and the communities that form around shared terrain.
Every user on ActionSync has a GPS-verified activity history. Every post is anchored to a real location. Every guide has verified credentials. The audience self-selects at the highest possible level — not because of targeting, but because of what the platform is for.
You're not buying space on a screen. You're buying relevance with a community that cannot be reached any other way.
-
ACMG and IFMGA certified mountain guides
- Ski, MTB, paddling, climbing, and fishing guides
- Outdoor education instructors and guide services
- Backcountry ski, MTB, paddling, and climbing clubs
- Disc golf communities and leagues
- Yoga and fitness instructors operating outdoors
- SAR-adjacent members and trip leaders
- Recreational adventurers who follow their lead
These are not casual scrollers. They get up at 5am to skin a glacier. They trust their gear with their lives. They take recommendations from guides seriously and they spend real money on equipment, travel, and experience.
-
Your brand on the terrain your customers love.
Adopt a terrain area on the ActionSync map — a mountain zone, a trail network, a river corridor, a disc golf course, a climbing area. Your brand name appears on the area card. Your presence is associated with that place in the minds of everyone who adventures there.
Stewardship fees go directly to local trail societies and SAR groups operating in that area. Every dollar is visible inside the area page. You are not buying an ad placement. You are committing to a place your customers already love — and the community sees that.
Best fit: gear brands, apparel companies, tourism boards, resort operators, conservation organizations, food and beverage brands with an outdoor identity.
-
Verified attendance. Not impressions.
Sponsor a community event — a guided day, a trail run, a race, a clinic, a maintenance day, a meetup. Your brand is named on the event card. Users within range see it in their proximity feed.
Every attendee GPS checks in at your event. The platform verifies they were physically there. You see a verified attendance count — not clicks, not reach. People who showed up.
Configure what check-in earns your attendees:
- Trace bonus — reward them for showing up
- Collectible badge — a permanent, GPS-verified badge on their profile tied to your brand and that day. Cannot be bought. Cannot be faked.
- Hidden bounty — a challenge that only unlocks after check-in. Creates a second layer of engagement for people who actually came.
- Draw entry — prize draw from verified attendees only
"We don't sell you eyeballs. We verify boots on the ground."
Best fit: any brand wanting verified community activation in specific terrain.
-
Set a task. The community does it. You get something real.
Post a bounty and send the ActionSync community out into terrain with a purpose. GPS verifies they were there. Photo proves they did it.
Photo and video bounties
Best shot from a specific summit, trail, or river wearing your gear. GPS-verified location. You judge or the community votes. Winner gets cash or Trace. You get authentic, location-verified content from people who actually went there — not a studio shoot, not an influencer on a day rate.
Conditions bounties
Request current field reports from specific terrain. A heli operator wanting snowpack data before sending clients. A tourism board wanting current trail conditions before a campaign launch. An avalanche forecaster needing remote zone intel. Real intelligence from people on the ground.
Challenge bounties
Set a multi-checkpoint challenge across specific terrain. Leaderboard for the duration. Your brand on the challenge card. Community competes.
Exploration bounties
First GPS trace of an unmapped route or area. Tourism boards and mapping organizations use these to fill blank spots on the terrain record.
Maintenance bounties
Fund trail work, route marking, or infrastructure documentation. GPS verifies location. Photo documents the work. Your brand associated with genuine stewardship.
"User generated content from verified locations by people who actually go outside. You set the bounty. We verify the receipts."
Best fit: gear brands, apparel, tourism boards, resort operators, outdoor media, conservation organizations.

Item dThe most trusted referral in outdoor retail.
Guides and outdoor professionals list the gear they actually use in their ActionSync profiles. Your brand pays to be linked from those listings.
The person tapping that link already paid $800 to go outside with that guide. They trust that guide with their safety. They will trust their gear recommendations. This is not a retargeted ad. It is a warm referral from a professional whose life depends on their equipment choices.
You choose which guides carry your link — filter by sport, region, and certification level. You pay only when someone clicks through. Guides earn a revenue cut. ActionSync takes the margin.
Three tiers:
- Basic listing — your product appears in guide gear lists, no link, no cost
- Affiliate link — pay per click, guide earns a cut
- Featured placement — highlighted across relevant guide profiles in a target region or sport category
Best fit: gear manufacturers, apparel brands, navigation and safety equipment, bikes, boats, rods, any product a professional carries.escription
-
Sponsor the terrain. Not the feed.
Pay to designate specific terrain as a Trace bonus zone for a set period. Users who GPS through that zone earn a Trace multiplier automatically — no action required beyond going outside.
Your brand name appears on the zone card on the map. You get a zone activity report showing how many GPS sessions were logged in the zone during your campaign.
No banner. No pop-up. No post in a feed. Your brand lives where your customers actually go.
Best fit: resort operators wanting to drive visitation to a specific zone, tourism boards activating a region, gear brands running seasonal campaigns, event organizers driving attendance to a location.
-
Understand the community that uses your terrain.
Through the Corporate tier, brands and organizations get access to aggregated, anonymized activity data for specific terrain areas.
- Session volume by area and date range
- Sport breakdown — which activities are most active where and when
- Peak days and times
- Conditions trend history from community field reports and debriefs
No personal data. No individual users identifiable. Aggregate intelligence that helps you make better decisions about where to activate, when to run campaigns, and which terrain your customers actually use.
Best fit: tourism boards, resort operators, land managers, brands planning regional campaigns.
-
No banner ads. No sponsored posts in the community feed. No algorithmic promotion. No selling user data. No targeting users based on their GPS history.
Every brand presence on ActionSync is visible, consensual, and contextually relevant. The community knows who supports the platform and what they get in return. Transparency is not a policy — it is how the platform is built.
-
The outdoor gear and apparel market is built on trust. A guide's gear recommendation carries more weight than any campaign because it comes from someone whose life depends on the choice.
ActionSync gives your brand access to that trust chain — not by interrupting it, but by being genuinely relevant within it.
The person clicking your affiliate link just paid to spend a day in the mountains with a certified guide. The person earning your Trace bonus zone reward just GPS-logged 1,200 metres of elevation gain. The person completing your photo bounty hiked to a summit in the rain to get the shot.
That is your customer. That is where your brand belongs.
-
Resorts occupy a unique position — you manage the terrain, you already have the community, and you have multiple partnership angles available simultaneously: stewardship of your own area, sponsored events on your mountain, affiliate links from your ski shop, bounties across your trail network, and area intelligence about how your guests actually use your terrain.
