Super cool! I love my Pager, using MeshOS right now, but will give this a try.
Hate to say it, but that AI-Gen “photo” of the T-pager is so distracting. My eyes knew right away it was wrong.
This is brilliant. GPS mapping with Lora communciation is exactly what my friends and I need, as we are frequently off road and out of cell service. Looks like I might be getting a tlora pager.
Edit: I do see it is 100% AI code, so my performance expectations are going to be tempered, but if properly reviewed and it works right, you can’t argue with results.

The key word is “if”.
This is rather the crux of the issue: most AI-generated code is not reviewed, let alone reviewed by humans, let alone reviewed by human experts within their expertise. Nor does AI-generated code have a good history of being well-tested to any particular formal standard of validation (eg ISO), against any defined criteria that isn’t itself AI-generated and unreviewed. There are outliers, no doubt, which strive to lift themselves above this low-bar, though the effort to do so often exceeds the effort to just have the experts hand-write the code instead and then formally validate it, at least as of early 2026.
Some AI could plausibly be tolerable within an already-functioning software engineering team. But “all code in Trail Mate is 100% generated by AI under human guidance” is an abdication too far.
While all true, In my case, I am willing to take the risk in low stakes devices because the overall usefulness of this firmware as-designed is too perfect for me to pass up.
