Move Sustainably — We Detect It Automatically
Walk to a coffee shop. Bike to work. Take the bus. PaceLeaf runs in the background and automatically identifies sustainable transport modes using GPS and movement analysis.
- No manual logging required
- Recognizes walking, cycling, e-bike, bus, light rail, and carpooling
- Smart detection distinguishes transit from driving
- Optional manual logging for activities where GPS isn't practical (recycling, etc.)
Activity Verification
PaceLeaf applies a verification layer to ensure activities are real and meaningful. We use a combination of GPS route analysis, speed verification, and periodic check-in prompts.
- Speed thresholds filter out car travel misclassified as walking or cycling
- Minimum distance and time requirements prevent gaming
- Community challenges may require additional verification steps
- We err on the side of rewarding users — our goal is engagement, not gatekeeping
Earn PaceLeaf Points
Verified activities are converted to PaceLeaf Points. You earn more for longer trips, harder activities, and participation in community challenges.
- Base rate: ~10 pts per km walked or biked
- Transit bonus: 5 pts per trip for bus, rail, or shared mobility
- Challenge multipliers: 1.5x to 3x during sponsored events
- Eco actions (recycling, reusable cup at partner cafes, etc.): 25–100 pts per action

Questions about how it works
Does PaceLeaf drain my battery?
PaceLeaf uses optimized background location tracking. In testing, background battery usage is typically under 3% per day. You can set the app to only track when you explicitly start a session.
What if I forget to have the app open?
PaceLeaf uses passive background tracking so you don't need to remember to start it. As long as the app is installed and permissions granted, it will log eligible activities automatically.
How accurate is the mode detection?
We aim for 90%+ accuracy in distinguishing walking, cycling, and transit from driving. Speed, GPS path, and acceleration patterns are all used. If we misclassify a trip, you can flag it in the app for review.
Can I earn points for activities outside my city?
Yes — points are earned based on your activity, not your city. Rewards, however, are tied to local partners. You can redeem points wherever you are, as long as there's a PaceLeaf partner nearby.
