About us
We believe that sun makes a terrace.
In the Sun shows you in real time which terraces nearby are in the sun. No more guessing, no more walking laps, just one tap and you know where the sun is, right now and an hour from now.
The story
Started on a dark, rainy Saturday in 2026.
Everyone knows the feeling: Friday afternoon, first real spring day, looking for a terrace in the sun. You walk past five cafés, three are in the shade, one is full, one is closed, and the sun is going down.
We thought: this has to be easier. With astronomical shadow calculation and the real shape of every building around a terrace, we know to the minute when a terrace is in the sun. Not a weather forecast, not a rough estimate, just: sun or no sun, now and in the hours ahead.
We started this year in Amsterdam, with the goal of making the sunniest terraces findable in every Dutch city. Up next: Rotterdam, Utrecht, Eindhoven and The Hague.
What we care about
Simple, honest, local.
Realtime, not rough
Our shadow calculation uses real building geometry and the sun's position, no averages, no rules of thumb.
For the guest
The guest comes first. No ad noise, no skewed rankings, just which terrace is actually in the sun right now.
Fair to terraces
Free visibility for every terrace. Owners only pay for extras like deals and live reservations.
Local and open
Started in Amsterdam, close to the hospitality scene. We listen to guests and owners and build at neighbourhood level.
