Why it exists
We built it after a map sent us to a dry station
Refuelia started on a night drive. Our fuel map showed every station in green, just because it existed. The one we chose had been out of fuel since morning, and the map could not show that.
So every status on Refuelia shows its source and its age. It might be a confirmation from twenty minutes ago. Or it might say “No fresh report”.
What matters most is how fresh a report is. A station can run out of fuel between one driver and the next. A status six hours old is no longer fresh. So the status fades on purpose. When a report is too old, the pin drops the status. Its colour still shows what the station sells.
Only a driver at the station can tell the next driver what is there. At the station? Report it in two taps, no account needed. The next driver sees it with the minute you sent it. This is why coverage grows fastest where people drive most.
Refuelia launched in the summer of 2026. It grows one driver report at a time.
