You're getting a first look at something I've been building for the past few months — a real intelligence layer for golf courses that I think you're going to find genuinely useful.
It started as a late-night brainstorming session with an AI assistant and turned into a full platform. Public launch is May. You're in before that.
What you're getting
As someone I wanted in before anyone else, you have free access to the full app — and that never changes. This isn't a trial. When FairwayIntel goes paid in May, your access stays free, permanently, as a thank-you for helping me build it.
All I ask: use it, and tell me honestly what you think.
What FairwayIntel does today
Click any feature title below to see an example.
A personalized assessment based on your handicap, playing style, and preferences. See how well a course matches your game before you book.
AI-powered analysis of conditions, value, amenities, and playing experience, updated regularly from multiple data sources.
Live weather impact, greens speed estimate, pace of play, and maintenance status. Know what to expect before you tee off.
A note on coverage
One of the hardest problems in building this platform is sourcing reliable course data — there's surprisingly little of it online in consistent form. The app currently covers nearly all courses in Michigan, but coverage quality varies. Some courses have richer data than others.
This is where you come in. Long-term, FairwayIntel is powered by user-contributed data — real conditions reports from real rounds. The more golfers use the app and report back, the better the intelligence gets for everyone. Your early contributions matter more than you know.

How to give feedback
I've built several feedback paths into the app — use whichever feels easiest:
- •Give Feedback button — persistent on every screen (General Feedback, Feature Idea, UX Problem, Suggest a Course)
- •Suggest a Course — at the bottom of any course listing page
- •Report Conditions — on the dashboard, after a round
- •Text, email, or call me directly — alex@fairwayintel.app
This is a live beta, not a finished product. You may encounter rough edges, incomplete course data, or features that change between visits. That's normal — and your feedback is exactly how we fix it.
Your data is private. Conditions you submit are contributed anonymously and aggregated — no individual reports are ever exposed to other users.
If you know another golfer who'd find this useful, send them my way.
Referrals from people I trust are how I want to grow this.
Hit 'em straight,
