OpenLoop vs. Proxi
Proxi is a great tool if you just want to embed a custom map on your website. But a map is just a map. If you actually want to motivate people to get off their couches and visit those locations, you need OpenLoop.

1. Passive Maps vs. Active Passports
Proxi shows people where things are. OpenLoop gives them a reason to go there. OpenLoop requires users to physically show up and check in using their phone's GPS, turning a passive directory into an active challenge.
2. Static Views vs. Gamified Rewards
You can't gamify a Proxi map. With OpenLoop, every location on your trail is part of a progression system. You can set up tiers, unlock digital stamps, and offer real-world discounts (like a free t-shirt) when users hit milestones.
3. View Limits vs. Unlimited Scaling
Proxi caps your traffic; if your map goes viral and hits their view limits, they force you into a custom Enterprise tier. OpenLoop never punishes you for success. For just $25/year for 1 trail (or our Creator and Organization tiers for up to 30 publishes per year + planning), you get unlimited views, check-ins, and users. Need more than 30 trails? Contact us.
