Roadmap
What has shipped, what we are working on, and what comes next.
One rule sets the format: dates appear only where something has
already shipped. Everything else carries a status, not a deadline.
Anything that touches the physics goes through pre-registered
validation on the methodology page
before it lands, and a safety-related fix never waits for a
calendar date.
Shipped — live today
- The internal ballistics engine. A physics simulation that steps
through the shot in half-microsecond increments, keeping an energy
ledger: burning powder adds energy; bullet travel, heat into the
steel, rifling friction and gas leak past the projectile subtract it.
Pressure follows from the energy still in the gas.
live today
- Charge ladders with uncertainty bands. The work-up ladder shows
how predicted pressure moves with charge weight, and every rung
carries an uncertainty band. Safety verdicts are judged at the
band's conservative top edge, never the displayed value — above
the top of the range the verdict stops asserting safety rather
than guessing. live today
- Trajectory drop tables. Shipped 2026-11-01. The engine predicts
the muzzle velocity; a point-mass external model (drag + gravity)
turns that into a drop table. Free tier shows the table out to
300 yd; PRO gets the full range. Cross-checked against an
independent published solver before it shipped.
shipped 2026-11-01
- Load logbook. Save loads to your device, export them as
CSV or JSON, and print a load sheet that puts the predicted
velocity and pressure band next to your work-up notes.
live today
- Printable range sheets. Take the numbers to the bench on
paper: a clean printed sheet with the table your load needs and
the safety notes that travel with it.
live today
- MCP server for AI agents — live beta. AI agents
(Claude Code, Cursor, and any MCP client) can run loads through
the engine directly: simulations, charge ladders, trajectory
tables, catalog lookups. Same safety verdicts, same published
error figures, no separate claims. Free beta keys on the
MCP page;
100 engine calls a day per key while the beta is tuned.
shipped 2026-11-02
- Published accuracy with provenance. The error figures are not
a marketing line — they are computed from the validation corpus
on every deploy, with the source data spelled out, and they render
on this page from the served artifact rather than being typed in:
published in full on the methodology page
(full disclosure).

In development
- Chronograph calibration. in development
Enter the velocities your own chronograph measured, and the model
tunes to your rifle, your lot of powder, your barrel. This is the
flagship feature: published data is shot from proof barrels, and
the honest way to close that gap is to calibrate against the one
barrel you actually own. The design exists; it ships when it
clears validation, not before.
- Efficiency-descriptor fix for the high-reading tail.
in development
The worst error regime is loads the model reads high. The
pre-registered mechanism study is complete and pinned the cause:
efficiency collapse tied to charge mass relative to bullet mass
— the case-fill framing did not survive the study. The fix
is an efficiency-descriptor term; it will run the same
before-and-after validation on the
methodology page as every engine
change.
Coming — planned
- Pistol cartridge coverage. planned
Coverage is rifle-focused today, and we say so everywhere rather
than quietly extrapolate handgun loads from rifle data. Pistol
cartridges are next; interior ballistics in near-empty cases is
the hardest regime in the field, so this lands only when it
clears the same accuracy floor as the rifle catalog.
- The accuracy paper. planned
A full methodology write-up: corpus construction, error
distributions, where the model errs and why, and what the figures
are good for. Everything on the
methodology page today is true;
the paper makes it complete.
Plans, not promises. Every item above is a plan,
not a promise. The accuracy page
discipline applies to claims, and we hold schedules to the same
standard: we would rather under-promise and ship than put a date on
something that then slips. If a change would move the published
figures, the figures are published before and after, and a
safety-related fix jumps every queue.
