RaidShellBETA

a BeardedTortle raid companion for Escape from Tarkov
Open RaidShell Free beta. No account needed. Works on phone & desktop. Things change fast and rough edges exist โ€” that's the beta deal.

Tarkov's real loading screen is the ten minutes before the raid: which map, which quests, what route, where do I extract? RaidShell answers all four in about thirty seconds โ€” and it gets smarter every raid your crew plays.

Before the raid

๐ŸŽฒ Map Wheel

"We can't agree on a map."

Spin a weighted wheel. Give Customs 50%, Labs 4%, turn off maps you hate โ€” it remembers. Or hit โš– Weight by my quests and the wheel favors the maps where you have the most left to do. The moment it lands, RaidShell shows exactly which of your quests you can work on there, plus a pre-raid checklist of the objective items and ๐Ÿ”‘ keys those quests require. Hover a key to see why it is in your pack list.

๐Ÿ“‹ Quest Tracker

"I'm not clicking 500 checkboxes."

Screenshot your in-game Tasks screen and AI reads it โ€” no API key, no setup, free during the beta (daily limits apply). One import reconstructed 300+ completed quests in a real test. Tracks every objective, knows either/or lockouts, flags Kappa and event quests, and every quest links creator video guides.

๐ŸŽฏ Goals

"What am I even grinding for?"

Pick Kappa, Lightkeeper, or any quest-locked unlock (search "7N40", "BP craft"โ€ฆ). RaidShell maps the full chain behind it, shows a progress bar, and stars โ˜… every quest that moves you forward โ€” on every screen.

๐ŸŽ’ Items shopping list

"What do I actually need to keep?"

Every item your remaining quests and hideout upgrades still need, in one list โ€” Found-in-Raid requirements separated from flea-buyables, with counters for what you already have. Check off hideout levels as you build them and the list shrinks itself.

๐Ÿ Endings, main quests & map access

"Why can't I pick that map?"

The story mapped out โ€” a clickable story map of every road to an ending, plus all ten chapters as checkable step lists (wiki-charted, current for 1.1), and checkable steps showing how far you are down each path. Plus a map access checklist: exactly what unlocks every location, in Tour order, including the three you can only reach by transit โ€” and it tracks per character, so your Seasonal PMC starts over like it should.

During the raid

๐Ÿ—บ Raid Map

"Where do I spawn, go, and get out?"

Starts with a pre-raid brief โ€” name the op, pick your focus (quests, PVP, or loot) and planned exit. Then real map imagery with your objectives pinned at exact positions, multi-floor maps (Labs levels, Interchange floors, Customs buildings) with a floor selector, spawns, extracts, loot, boss territories with live spawn odds, and hot zones. Pick your spawn and RaidShell suggests routes โ€” quest, PVP, and a gold loot run, drawn faintly to compare. Hit โœ“ use & edit to load one into your own route, then drag stops, add your own, or click extracts to reroute โ€” and ๐Ÿ log how the raid ended. Skint for a car extract? It plans a rouble run to cover the fee.

๐Ÿ“œ Raid History

"How'd that last raid go again?"

Every raid you finish is saved โ€” outcome, the map, and the exact route you ran, drawn on a mini-map. Attach your Twitch / Medal / TikTok clips and the gun build you ran to any raid, then browse it all back later.

๐Ÿ“ธ Spawn Photos

"โ€ฆwhich spawn is this?"

Your crew uploads screenshots of their spawn views. Next time anyone lands there, the photos tell them instantly. Community-built, mod-controlled.

โ˜  Living danger data

"Why do I always die right there?"

One button marks where you died โ€” shared with everyone. Death clusters turn into route warnings, community votes tune the hotspots, and known hot zones (Dorms, Resort, Sawmillโ€ฆ) are baked in from day one so the map is smart before the first death lands.

With your squad

๐Ÿ“ก Live Squad Briefings

"One link in Discord = the whole plan."

Share a briefing link and your squad sees the plan live: same map, same spawn, same route, teammates' quests folded into the routing. The squad speaks in pings โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ enemy spotted (fades as intel goes stale), โ˜  deaths with names, and ๐ŸŽ loot drops: mark where you left an item, tag it from what a teammate actually needs, they tap it when collected. Everything syncs within seconds. No accounts โ€” the link is the invite.

๐ŸŽฌ Community Clips NEW

"Am I the problem? Rate my peek."

Share your PVP moments and deaths (Twitch / Medal / TikTok) with the gun build you ran, and ask the community for honest feedback. Watch others, upvote the best, and drop coaching in the comments. Every share is mod-reviewed before it goes public.

๐Ÿ”ซ Gun Builds BEING REFINED

"What do I bring for this quest?"

A community build repository โ€” Tarkov and Arena kept separate, grouped by class, voted and discussed. Screenshot your weapon inspect screen and AI reads the stats and attachments, or build it live from the real item list. Filter to just yours or the whole community, price it out (flea, cheapest shop, trader unlocks), or ๐Ÿ”ง tinker with what-if swaps. Tag a build to a quest and it shows inside that quest's panel. Stats look off? Anyone can ๐Ÿšฉ flag them for the owner to fix.

๐ŸŽฎ Arena Callouts & Nade Lineups ALPHA

"Heaven! He's Heaven!"

Overhead Blastgang maps with community-pinned callouts and grenade lineups โ€” screenshots of the aim point, video links, the works. Click the map, name the spot, and your team finally speaks the same language.

๐ŸŽฅ OBS Stream Overlay PRO

"Chat, this is the plan."

Put your live raid plan on stream: a design-your-own overlay canvas โ€” drag widgets anywhere, pick from 7 themes โ€” showing your route, quests and goals, boss odds, the wheel spin landing live, and a live mini-map with squad pings (๐Ÿ‘ โ˜  ๐ŸŽ) pulsing in real time. Paste one link into OBS once; every redesign syncs automatically.

Between raids

๐Ÿ‘ค Player Profiles

"That guy who beamed me โ€” legit?"

Look up players and get a stat card โ€” level, K/D, survival rate โ€” plus a clearly-labeled sus% heuristic. A guess from public stats, never proof.

๐Ÿท Name your world

"You knowโ€ฆ the rat spot behind Dorms."

Add your crew's own names for spawns, extracts, and POIs right on the map. Everyone sees them. Callouts become official.

โ„ Season 1: Kord Breach LIVE

"Picks are locked forever. What do I take?"

The season hub: every global and personal modifier with a points-budget planner โ€” rehearse your build before it locks at character creation, and see what other planners picked. ๐Ÿ“ท Scan a screenshot of the in-game modifier screen and AI fills your picks (you confirm first), then ๐Ÿ“ค share your build for others to browse, vote on, and load. Plus the launch facts, the Black Division rewards that stay on your account after the season ends, and one-click creation of your separate Seasonal character.

๐Ÿช–โ„๐Ÿค One profile, three characters

"Season's starting โ€” but don't touch my main."

Your permanent PMC, an opt-in Seasonal fresh start, and a PVE character โ€” each with its own quests, items, hideout and level. Switch from the topbar, wipe or reset any of them whenever. Routes, markers and your community identity stay shared across all three.

โ˜ Cloud save & backup

"Same progress on every device."

One click makes a cloud save behind a secret code โ€” or sign in with Twitch so you can never lose it. Auto-saves as you play, and your access (Pro, mod) follows your account onto any device automatically. Plus one-click file backup and restore, and a shareable quest-list export.

๐Ÿ’ก Tips

"Teach me to stop dying."

Hand-picked creator tip videos plus written fundamentals โ€” gunfights, ammo, sound, positioning. Community members can submit their own; mods keep it quality.

๐Ÿ“บ Creators

"Where do I learn this game?"

A hand-picked roster of streamers worth watching โ€” the homies plus the big names who'll teach you the raid. A red โ— LIVE badge shows who's on air right now. One click to their stream. Go show them love.

PRO ยท LIVE

RaidShell Pro is here โ€” support monthly on Ko-fi (any amount, even $1/mo) and you're in. Pro unlocks the stream overlay (your live route, quests, bosses & squad as an OBS browser source โ€” one canvas or per-widget), sharper AI scans (quest & gun-build imports run on the full-size model with a 100-scan daily allowance, no shared pool), and โญ priority in mod review queues โ€” with more perks landing. After you subscribe, open the app โ†’ ๐Ÿ‘ค โ†’ โญ RaidShell Pro and claim with your Ko-fi email. Keyless screenshot scans stay free during the beta (daily limits), and the core companion โ€” wheel, quest tracker, maps and routes โ€” stays free forever.

โญ Subscribe on Ko-fi โ€” from $1/mo โ†—
The honest fine print: routes are straight-line suggestions (the data has no walls), sus% is a heuristic, and extract availability still rolls per raid โ€” check your O-key list. Spot something wrong โ€” a boss spawn that moved, a quest that changed? There's a report button in the app so a human can fix it. RaidShell runs on the excellent open data from tarkov.dev and credits them everywhere.
