MOUNTAIN INTELLIGENCE, IN YOUR HOME

Never miss a powder day again

The Powder Oracle is a palm-sized device that tells you — at a glance — whether tomorrow is worth the early alarm. Daily snow briefings, storm forecasts, and a Powder Alarm that only wakes you when it actually snowed.

The hardware

Small object. Serious instrument.

The Powder Oracle isn’t an app you open — it’s a physical object with presence, quietly tuned to the mountain you love.

Its screen, its light and its ambience shift in real time with what’s happening at your favourite resort. A storm stacking up overnight, fresh snow at first chair, bluebird skies on the summit — the Oracle reads it and casts it into the room around it.

The glow it throws, the colour it holds, the mood it sets — all of it tells you from across the room whether it’s going off. Conditions you feel, not just check.

How it works

We watch the mountains so you don’t have to.

We watch the mountains

Every night our system gathers official resort reports, runs high-resolution mountain weather models, and pulls avalanche bulletins for resorts worldwide.

The Oracle makes sense of it

It distills all of that into a clear daily briefing, a storm forecast, and a 30-day history — for every resort you care about.

Your device tells you

The Powder Oracle pulls the latest over Wi-Fi and shows you the answer at a glance — then wakes you with the Powder Alarm when it actually snowed.

What it does

Everything you check, distilled to a glance.

Five purpose-built screens and a screensaver, each surfacing a different piece of mountain intelligence — in two styles: clean modern alpine or nostalgic retro.

Standard interface, Snow screen

At a glance

The full picture

New snow in one number you can read from across the room, ringed by what gives it meaning: base depth, the 7-day total, temperature, and wind. The Oracle’s Quick Take scrolls along the bottom.

History

30 days of mountain memory

A snow timeline of the last month — every fall, charted against the base it built — so you see the whole storm cycle, not a single snapshot.

Avalanche

Danger, by elevation

Awareness-level avalanche danger across Alpine, Treeline, and Below Treeline, drawn from official regional forecasts — with a plain-language summary underneath.

Concise, daily

The Oracle briefing

Every morning the Oracle reads the snow, the models, and the storm cycle, then writes an actual answer to “should I go?” Alongside it: expected snow for the next 24 and 48 hours, and a temp trend so you know if it stays light and dry.

Roadtrips

PowderDrive — the shortest route to the best turns

Factor in the drive. Compare resorts using both mountain conditions and travel time, then choose the destination that delivers the most powder for the effort.

Screensaver

Storm Pulse

What it does with the other 23 hours: a comet tracing the next 48 hours of forecast snowfall, one pixel per hour.

The killer feature

The Powder Alarm

Set a fresh-snow threshold and a wake time. It only sounds the alarm if your home mountain actually got the goods overnight. Sleep in on the bad days. Never miss a blower day.

Your quiver

Multi-resort, one swipe

Track all your mountains. Swipe to switch between them. Star one as primary for the default view and your alarm.

The Oracle

The mountain speaks. Most people aren’t listening.

Every night it reads the snow, the models, and the storm cycle — and surfaces the one thing that matters: where to be, and when.

Questions

Before you ask the Oracle.

Which resorts are supported?
Check our freely available Snow Plow — Mountain Command Center for an live up to date list — and the list grows every season. You pick the mountains you care about during setup.
How accurate is it?
The Oracle combines official snow reports directly from the resorts with high-resolution mountain weather models and avalanche bulletins, refreshed daily. It’s the same data a careful skier would assemble by hand — just done for you, all day, every day.
Does it need Wi-Fi?
Yes, to pull fresh data and updates. But if your network drops, the device keeps showing the last-known conditions rather than going blank.
How do I set it up?
Plug in over USB-C, join your Wi-Fi from the on-device portal, then scan the on-screen QR code to claim and setup your account. About 60 seconds. 
Will it get new features?
Yes — secure over-the-air updates with automatic rollback mean new features arrive on their own, safely, without you doing anything.
Is the avalanche info a substitute for a bulletin?
No. It surfaces awareness-level danger ratings so they’re in front of you. Always rely on official avalanche forecasts, proper training, and equipment before any backcountry travel.
Is there a subscription?
No monthly fee. No annual plan. No “premium powder tier.” The only recurring thing should be snowfall—not a charge on your credit card.
