HUNT YOUR DATA, NOT LUCK. Most hunters spend a season collecting trail cam photos and then guess which stand to sit. RackData is built to end the guessing. Every photo you upload gets matched to the wind, pressure, moon, and temperature from the moment it was taken. After a few months, you start to see patterns on your own deer — which stands produce in which conditions, what triggers movement, when bucks are actually on their feet. The more you upload, the smarter it gets. This is your herd. Your property. Your edge. WHAT'S INSIDE - Trail cam analysis powered by AI Upload photos and let HerdMind extract deer counts, buck counts, and conditions automatically. No manual logging. - HerdMind — your herd's intelligence layer Personalized stand recommendations based on what your specific deer have actually done in similar conditions. Not regional averages. Your data. - RackScore — every stand graded for the day Wind, pressure, time of day, moon phase, rut phase, temperature, solunar — combined into a single grade for every stand on your property. - Live conditions on the dashboard Wind, pressure trend, moon phase, sunrise/sunset, solunar periods, and a 3-day forecast — all on one screen. - RackLog — your hunt journal Log every sit, photo, and sighting. Hunt logs feed back into your data and sharpen future recommendations. - Property mapping Drop stands on a satellite map. Visualize wind direction, contour lines, and historic deer activity around each location. - Daily evening recap Get a notification at 7 PM with tomorrow's recommended stand based on the forecast. PLANS - Free — 1 stand, 100 trail cam photos - Scout — 5 stands, 1,000 photos/month, full HerdMind access - Hunter — 15 stands, 2 properties, 5,000 photos/month, wind overlay, contour lines - Land Manager — unlimited stands, 5 properties, 25,000 photos/month, full toolkit - Hibernate — off-season tier to preserve your data at a low rate WHO IT'S FOR RackData was built for hunters who take it seriously — folks who own or lease land, run trail cameras, and want to use what's already on their SD cards to hunt smarter. If you've ever sat the wrong stand on the right day, this is for you. Built by a hunter from north Louisiana with 25 years of property data and a deep belief that the data to hunt better is already on your SD cards. You just couldn't get to it. Welcome to RackData.
