Tool Naming Status
May 17, 2025



We have tools.
They are being built. They are being tested. One of them works. One of them sort of works. One of them actively threatens the structural integrity of the internet every time we run it.
But we cannot name them.
Because naming things is hard.
And naming things in a way that sounds cool, useful, and mildly unhinged is even harder.
So here is the official Tool Naming Status, as of today:
Tool #1: The Trip Planner
What it does:
You put in trip info. It gives you a gear list, meal plan, and itinerary. You feel powerful.
Name Options (still fighting it out):
Trip Not Found — Nerdy, slightly ominous
Possibly Prepared — Accurate, legally
What Trail Is This? — Our current emotional state
Route? I Barely Know Her — Please don’t make us explain this one
Vibe Itinerary Generator — No real structure, just trailhead energy
Current Status:
Being called “The Thing” in our internal notes. May remain that way forever.
Tool #2: The Meal Planner
What it does:
Creates a daily food plan that includes snacks, hot meals, and a reminder not to eat all your trail mix on day one.
Name Options:
Oatmeal Again?! — This one speaks for itself
Couscous Crimes — No actual crimes have occurred… yet
Snack Operas — Drama. Salt. Repetition.
Just Add Water (and Regret) — May require an emotional stove
Dehydrate This! — We’re sorry and you’re welcome
Current Status:
Technically edible.
Tool #3: The Gear Planner
What it does:
Generates a gear list based on your route, length, style, and tolerance for damp socks.
Name Options:
Too Many Socks — The truth hurts
Weight Regret Calculator — It knows what you’ll hate carrying
Bag of Choices — A pile of decisions with straps
This Feels Important — But what if it isn’t?!
Pack It Up — Slightly threatening
Current Status:
Heavy. Emotionally.
