Questions, answered
Is Stiip free?
Yes — the core is free and needs no account: build loops, find climbs and export GPX. At busy times you may wait a short while in a queue. A premium tier is coming for supporters and hard riders, but the essentials stay free.
How does Stiip maximise climbing?
It generates many round-trip routes over hilly terrain and ranks them by total ascent (D+), so each loop packs in real climbing, all within your chosen distance.
Can I export to my Garmin or Wahoo?
Yes, every route exports as an accurate GPX file for Garmin or Wahoo head units, or to import into Strava and Komoot. There is also a quick Google Maps link.
Does it avoid gravel and busy roads?
Stiip uses road-bike-friendly routing that excludes motorways, and a toggle lets you avoid gravel and unpaved tracks entirely.
Which areas does Stiip cover?
Stiip covers much of Western Europe — France, Belgium, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Germany, Switzerland, Austria, Italy, Spain, Portugal and the UK — from the Alps and Pyrenees to the Ardennes, Dolomites and Flemish hills, with more regions on the way.
Will Stiip stay free, and are there limits?
The core — building loops, finding climbs and exporting GPX — stays free and needs no account. For now a couple of limits apply: routes are capped (loops up to 100 km, challenges up to 60 km), and at peak times you may briefly wait in a queue while the server catches up. In a few weeks a premium account will add extras for supporters and hard riders, like longer routes and more share styles — the free core isn't going anywhere.
Support & what’s next
Free at heart, growing with you
A short, honest word on how Stiip is paid for, and where it is headed.
Who’s behind it
Right now Stiip is funded by me, a cyclist who loves chasing D+, together with my own company, EYN. No investors, no venture money, no strings.
The core stays free
Building the hilliest loops, finding the biggest climbs and exporting clean GPX stays free, with no account needed to ride. A premium tier will add extras for supporters and hard riders — the core stays free.
Help it grow
The more you ride with Stiip, share it and tell your friends, the more I can build: fun features, community touches, a richer experience. A premium tier for supporters and hard riders is coming soon to help fund it — and your word of mouth is what gets it there.
Why Stiip exists
I built Stiip because other tools push you toward subscriptions and forced sign-ups to reach routing and climb data, even though it all rests on open data that is already public. That never sat right with me. Stiip keeps that data open, free and yours.
