Light, not luck
Plan for the light you'll actually shoot in.
Altoa reads the sun's real position for the address you searched, then walks you through the day. Watch how shadows rotate, when golden hour lands, and where the drone needs to be to catch it — all before you charge a battery.
- Real azimuth + altitude from SunCalc — not a generic illustration
- Golden-hour windows highlighted on the 24-hour timeline

Real sun position from SunCalc at any US address — drives every Brief.
