Q & A
Common questions
How accurate is the shadow calculation?
3D building data from the Dutch Kadaster (BAG) + sun position, recalculated every minute. Trees, awnings and clouds can shift things locally. An indicator, not an oracle.
Which cities?
We're live across multiple Dutch cities (from Amsterdam to Maastricht) and expanding. Missing yours or your favourite terrace? Let us know via the waitlist and we'll prioritise.
Does it cost anything?
Free for terrace-goers. No ads, no tracking cookies.
What about UV?
Full sun on UV-7? We'll nudge you about sunscreen. In the shade? No nagging.
