What Booking.com did for hotels, Uber for taxis and Youtube for video, SmartGuide does for travel guides.
The SmartGuide app turns every phone into a personal travel guide and every tourist into an explorer. It guides tourists through destinations like a live guide advising them where to go and telling them interesting stories about the places they visit. More than 1,5M users can explore conveniently at their own pace and learn a lot more.
The platform is the easiest, fastest and cheapest way for tourist attractions, destinations and travel agencies to publish digital travel guides that they can offer for free or sell to visitors. We provide them with unique smart data analytics.
There are already over 1,500 destinations, including the official guide of Switzerland Tourism, Singapore Heritage Board, Prague, Pilsner Brewery and many others and 6,000 authors + AI, 1,400 destinations.
While other content platforms often heavily subsidize content creators, SmartGuide offers so much value that we generated >€800k revenue so far. Tourism organizations are our main customers now, generating over 95% of our revenues. There is no other company better positioned to disrupt the outdated fragmented guide market.
We are based in Prague, have 20 FTEs and raised €1.6M of seed funding with the latest valuation €10M with founders retaining 70% of the company. It now seeks a €3 million Series A investment to expand globally, enhance the end-user experience, and scale AI-powered content creation. The funding will accelerate its position as the leading digital guide platform, capturing a share of the €2 trillion online travel market.
