Developer of TerraFlo at terraflo.fit

Hidden Mesa Labs

We build software at the edge of media, sensor data, connected hardware, and cross-platform product design. TerraFlo is our fitness platform for GPS-synced route video, smart trainers, treadmills, living-room screens, and creator tools.

Studio Arena Walks, runs, rides Connected equipment where supported iOS, Android, macOS, tvOS, watchOS, Wear OS

Flagship platform

TerraFlo turns outdoor routes into indoor walks, runs, and rides.

TerraFlo pairs real-world video with synchronized GPS. In Arena mode, people ride, run, or walk through a filmed route while live telemetry and connected equipment respond to the terrain when the hardware supports it.

In Studio mode, creators import route footage, trim and repair GPS, preview overlays, generate thumbnails, and publish clean video plus telemetry for the TerraFlo catalog. A flat rail trail and a mountain climb both deserve accurate treatment.

Route truth Grade, distance, elevation, and map overlays come from the same telemetry track.
Equipment fit Smart treadmills and indoor cycling trainers can drive playback, incline, resistance, or both when supported.
Local-first entry Browsing, device setup, and Studio work stay useful without a launch-time login wall.
Gentle routes count A 2.5 mph boardwalk walk and a hard hill session are both first-class route experiences.

Company point of view

We build technical products that have to agree with the real world.

Hidden Mesa Labs works on the hard middle of product engineering: telemetry pipelines, media playback, Bluetooth device behavior, cross-platform clients, cloud services, and interfaces that stay calm when the underlying system is complicated. TerraFlo is the first expression of that stance.

Evidence first

GPS quality, device capabilities, diagnostics, and real workflows come before decorative claims.

Complex systems, calm surfaces

The product can coordinate video, telemetry, cloud state, and hardware without making users manage the system model.

One platform, many screens

Mac, phone, TV, watch, and web surfaces can feel native without drifting into different products.

Route users and creators

A platform for both sides of the route.

People need a clear way to pick a route, connect equipment when they have it, start moving, and see what happened. Creators need reliable tools to turn recorded routes into publishable training content without losing GPS fidelity.

TerraFlo keeps those workflows connected: the same telemetry that makes Studio overlays work is the telemetry that drives Arena playback, route history, export paths, and equipment behavior.

Hardware reality

Built around equipment people already own.

TerraFlo works toward support for Bluetooth fitness equipment through FTMS and related sensor profiles without making one brand of bike or treadmill the center of the story. Smart equipment can add playback, incline, resistance, and telemetry control. When control is not available, the product still needs to make the route experience understandable instead of turning setup into a dead end.

How we build

Applied research, careful systems, restrained product design.

01

Model the route

Clean telemetry, smooth grade, align distance and elevation, and make the route useful across editing, playback, and hardware control.

02

Respect the person moving

Keep browsing and setup calm, keep metrics readable, and avoid noisy engagement loops that distract from the route.

03

Verify the edge cases

Fitness hardware is uneven. We profile capabilities, record diagnostics, and design fallback behavior instead of pretending every device behaves the same.
