End the season with a filled tag, not a story about the buck you couldn’t figure out. Ember reads the wind, terrain, and pressure you can’t, so you walk in already knowing it’s the right sit.
Ember is a hunting app for solo hunters, families, and clubs. It runs your whole season: a shared club map with stand reservations, safety check-ins that alert your crew and emergency contacts when you’re overdue, and Breakdown stand scores that show why. iPhone and Android, free to start, then Pro at $99.99 a year.
wind: which way,Not gear. Not effort. Information: the stuff that decides the hunt before you ever climb in.
“Is this spot even worth it?”
You’ve got a map and a hunch. Nothing tells you how wind, terrain, and pressure actually stack up on the stand you’re about to walk to.
See how Ember scores it“Check the group text… which one?”
Stand assignments, dues, members, harvests, all run out of three chat threads and a spreadsheet only you keep updated.
Run it from one place“You back yet?”
Someone’s in the woods after dark and nobody’s sure who, or where. The not-knowing is the worst part of the night.
How check-ins work
your ground, the way Ember reads it, from the top downEmber scores every stand out of 100 and shows its work, so you stop hanging sets that never should’ve gone up, sit the right tree on the right morning, and walk out of the season a sharper hunter than you walked in.
Six real factors (weather, terrain, moon, time, season, and the ground itself) settled into a single call, so you decide where to sit in seconds instead of second-guessing it all week.
See exactly what’s helping and what’s hurting, so you decide for yourself and get sharper every sit.
Read from your property’s real elevation, slope, cover and pressure (not a generic heat map), so the score holds up on the ground you actually hunt.
The map · Blackhills LeasePick a base to see the ground three ways. Everything in the index stacks on top of it, and keeps stacking, season after season, on the same property record.
your property gets smarter every season you hunt it
Your club runs on group texts and a spreadsheet only the admin updates. Here are the six jobs an admin does by hand today, and the screen in Ember that takes each one off the pile.
01 · Stand assignments“Two guys walked into the same blind opening morning.”
02 · Members, roles & dues“I’m the guy chasing seven men for dues in October.”
03 · Hunt calendar“Nobody knows who’s on the property Saturday until they pull in.”
04 · Shared map & pins“The map lives on my phone. Everybody else gets a screenshot.”
05 · Harvest & journal“Our harvest records are a group text and my memory.”
06 · Safety check-ins“My wife calls at eight because I said I’d be out by dark.”
The Ember Hunt Camp on Facebook is where our hunters swap tactics, compare seasons, and help shape what we build next. Pull up a seat.
Ember lets your crew, and the people at home, know you made it out, and raises the alarm on its own if you don’t check out by your crew’s checkout time.
Checkout time was 8:00p. Checked in at Stand 2-1.
his check-in sends the second his phone finds a bar, even from a dead zone
You’re not buying six factors and a shared map. You’re buying the buck on the ground, a crew that runs itself, and a phone that stays quiet at dinner. Here’s the after.
You sit the right tree.
Walk in already knowing it’s the spot. Fewer Saturdays burned on dead sits, and you end the season a sharper hunter than you started it, because every sit teaches you the land instead of a dot.
The crew runs itself.
Seats, dues, and the map keep themselves straight. You go back to being a hunter on your own lease instead of the unpaid admin nobody remembers to thank.
Everybody sleeps easy.
Your people know you made it out. And on the night you don’t check in after dark, Ember raises the alarm before anyone at home has to lie awake wondering.
$99.99 a year, less than one blown weekend of gas and vacation, and it’s working on all of them.
Same app whether it’s just you or a fifty-member lease — start free, and Pro is $99.99 a year when you want the full engine. The Breakdown, the maps, the journal, the safety check-ins, all of it works with no crew, no setup, no waiting. The club tools only stack on top when you’ve got a crew.
joined for the club? it’s your app the other 300 days tooA tank of gas, a burned vacation day, and a Saturday you’ll think about all winter — that’s the price of one blown sit. Ember starts free: 14 days of everything, no card, then a plan you keep for as long as you want. Pro is $99.99 a year when you’re ready, or one Club plan covers the whole camp.
Plans are purchased in the app, billed by the App Store or Google Play. Safety basics — check-in, SOS, and location sharing — are free for everyone. See full pricing for what each plan includes.
Ember is a hunting app for solo hunters, families, and hunting groups. It runs the whole season in one place: a shared map with stand reservations, safety check-ins that alert your crew when someone is overdue, a hunt journal, and Breakdown stand scores that show you why a stand is good tonight instead of just handing you a number.
Ember's stand scoring analyzes multiple terrain and environmental factors — elevation, wind patterns, water sources, road proximity, and historical harvest data — to rate each stand on your property. Scores update as you log hunts and conditions change, getting smarter every season.
Ember starts free: a 14-day trial of the whole app with no credit card, then a free plan you keep for as long as you want. When you're ready, Pro is $99.99 a year for the Breakdown, deer scoring, premium maps, and automated safety — with a one-time $49.99 Season Pass and Club plans that cover a whole camp. The safety basics stay free for everyone.
Yes. Ember supports hunting groups of any size with shared property maps, member check-in safety alerts, hunt calendars, crew coordination, and admin tools. You can create unlimited crews — family groups, friend groups, or formal hunting groups — all from one account.
Ember is available on iOS (App Store) and Android (Google Play). The app works offline for core mapping and logging features, syncing data when you're back in range.
When you check in to a stand, Ember tracks your status against your crew's checkout time. Miss it and Ember escalates: a push, then a text and a call to you, then a voice call to your emergency contacts and a push to the crew's admins. There's also a one-tap SOS that calls and texts your contacts with your position. It's a passive safety net that costs nothing during the hunt.
Yes. Ember's core features — property maps, stand locations, hunt logging, and compass — work offline. Data syncs automatically when you reconnect. This is critical for hunting in remote areas with limited or no cell coverage.
Most hunting apps give you a map and stop there. Ember also runs the group side of a season — who is sitting where, whether everyone made it home, stand reservations, and dues — and its Breakdown stand scores explain the reasons for and against each stand instead of hiding them. One Club plan covers the whole club, and the Breakdown is never metered.
Once a month: app updates, terrain breakdowns, field notes from my own stands, and whatever else is worth your time. No filler just to hit a schedule.
Ember is live on iPhone and Android. Start free — no card — with the Breakdown, the club, and the check-ins all in one app.
