Trade routes that stay with you inside the game

The site calculates the route. The app sits on top of Elite Dangerous reading your session and tells you out loud, at each station, what to sell, what to buy and where to go — and warns you when you're about to make a costly mistake.

Pyxis is the constellation of the mariner's compass — the part of the ship Argo that tells you where you're heading.

What it does

Its own routing engine

Beam search over live prices, with filters for hold, capital, pad size and distance from the star. No waiting queue.

In-game guidance

A window that becomes an overlay on top of Elite. It follows the game's journal and tells you the next action — never suggests selling at a loss, nor selling the cargo you just bought to carry onward.

Costly-mistake alert

Sound and a red banner when you're aiming at the wrong station, docked off the route with cargo, or about to sell at a loss. Mistakes that can't be undone.

First-hand prices

On docking, the app sends that station's market. Whoever plays feeds everyone's database — including stations no site knows about.

Fuel and missions

Warns if the route doesn't fit in the tank, using the measured consumption of your jumps. And it reminds you of a delivery mission when the route passes through its destination.

Bigger hold, when it fits

It crosses what the station sells with the real slots of your ship and with your balance. Never suggests dropping the shield for another eight tons.

It talks to you

Eyes on the game, not on a second screen. Pyxis speaks the things you cannot afford to read late — the drive is charged, the destination is wrong, the tank will not reach. The screen still carries the numbers; the voice carries the timing.

Recorded, not synthesized while you fly: the lines ship inside the executable, so a warning never waits on a connection.

How it starts

  1. Create an account. Takes a minute and costs nothing.
  2. Download the app. A single executable, no installer.
  3. Click Sign in. The browser opens, you authorize this computer and that's it — no key to type.
  4. Calculate here, follow there. The route goes to the app and it takes over within a few seconds.

Current version 4.2.0, published on 2026-08-08. Requires Windows and Elite Dangerous in borderless mode — exclusive fullscreen hides any overlay, and that's a DirectX limitation.
