What each Trailkeep plan unlocks.
Trailkeep is free to use with an account. Pro lifts storage and itinerary limits.
Account types
Free
Creating a free account is quick and costs nothing. It unlocks persistent storage and the full feature set:
- Everything saved to your profile, accessible from any device
- Gear vault — build a reusable library of items to pull into any trip
- Collaborative editing — share a read-only or co-edit link with anyone, no account needed on their side
- Safety system — emergency contacts, Safety QR, GPS capture, trip-end overdue alerts, and Safety Timer
Free accounts have storage limits: up to 6 trips, up to 10 gear lists, and itinerary trips of up to 4 days each.
Pro
Pro has one core difference from Free: no limits.
- Unlimited trips — no cap on how many trips you can have in your account
- Unlimited itinerary days — plan trips of any length, not just 4-day windows
- Unlimited gear lists — no cap on lists in your account
Everything else — the safety timer, collaborative editing, GPS capture, trail companions — works the same on all tiers.
