AI audio tour of places near you
StoryRoute is a web-based application that transforms any walk into an audio tour using artificial intelligence. The app identifies landmarks near the user and generates spoken historical stories about those locations, playing the audio automatically as the user explores. The service is designed to provide an educational and immersive experience by revealing the hidden history of surrounding places without requiring manual input or pre-recorded guides. The application offers several features to customize the experience. Users can adjust voice settings and playback speed, filter landmarks by type, and save favorite stories for later access. The app supports multiple languages and provides a feedback mechanism for reporting bugs or suggesting improvements. A free tier allows access to a limited number of stories per day, while an upgrade to the Pro version unlocks unlimited stories, all travel modes, permanent favorites, and cross-device access. A launch offer is currently available for the upgrade. Typical use cases include casual walks, city exploration, and travel. The workflow involves opening the app, allowing location access, and walking through an area. The app automatically detects nearby landmarks and plays relevant audio stories. Users can interact with the interface to change voice, speed, or language, and can save stories they enjoy. The app uses cookies to understand usage patterns, and a privacy policy governs data handling. StoryRoute is accessible as a web app hosted at storyroute.netlify.app, requiring an internet connection and location permissions. No installation is needed, and it works across devices that support modern web browsers. The service is currently in an early phase with a limited free tier and a promotional paid upgrade.
