Tonight’s target, and every night it takes

Clear Night Coach picks tonight’s target for your telescope, your camera and your real horizon, and tells you why it chose it. That decision is free, forever. Pro carries it across the weeks a whole project actually takes — capture settings tuned to the night in front of you, a watchlist of what is still unfinished, and every session logged with its frames.

The full decision stays free forever. No account, no trial timer.

What you already have, free

The full decision is free forever — tonight’s verdict with the reason stated, one hero target plus backups, your real horizon, and none of it needs an account or a signal at the dark site.

A full-sky catalogue of 11,176 objects, with a hand-picked core of showpieces curated for both hemispheres — not scraped, not auto-generated.

Features:

Multi-night tracker: that distant galaxy or faint nebula can take weeks — so every target shows the hours you've logged against the goal, and how many more nights will finish it.

Tonight-tuned recipes: sub length, ISO/gain and filter call tuned to tonight's wind, moon and altitude — not a generic spec sheet.

Advanced AI narration: a briefing written fresh every night for your target — why this one, sub length and why, gain or ISO, filter, window, moon and tonight's plan. Numbers from the engine, always.

Watchlist and planning: save targets for their season and plan the nights ahead, not just tonight.

Session history: mark what you shot; the console remembers, rests it, and keeps the picks fresh.

Your capture logbook: attach your own shot to each logged night — your results, in your console for you to admire.

Send to NINA: tonight's pick injected into your own Advanced Sequencer file — coordinates, exposure, ISO/gain, sub count. Load it and press start.

A week of nights on one page: tonight and tomorrow are free; Pro adds nights three to seven as outlooks — moon, dark window and a confidence-labelled call for each.

Back it once, keep it for life

Founder Lifetime is twenty-five keys and then it is closed for good. One payment, no renewal, and the key keeps working offline whatever happens to this project.

One payment. Nothing to cancel.

Not ready? The full decision — hero pick, shortlist, honest verdict — is free forever, and Pro is waiting inside the app when you want it.
