Vision. Make art and culture accessible to everyone.
Mission. To be the default app for museums to create guides and connect.
A new kind of guide
Standalone museum apps are prohibitively expensive and time consuming to build. And museum visitors are less likely to download apps they're only going to use once.
​
GuideApp solves these problems by providing an alternative to developing a standalone app: a mobile network for museums to create multimedia guides in minutes and for free.
​
Museums own their content and GuideApp's intuitive design makes creating and managing their guides a joy. Our CMS is integrated into the app, so everything is done seamlessly on the phone.
​
And for visitors, they just have to download GuideApp on their phone and search for the museum they want - no sign up or log in required.
​
Community features
GuideApp is not just a guide for your museum, it's also a place to interact with visitors and build vibrant communities.
​
News
Publish long-form, multimedia, news articles. Anyone who follows you will get updated in their News Feed.
​
Chat
Host conversations with your Followers. These Chats can be Public, or set to Private for only those who have purchased one of your guides.
​
Follow, Likes and Comments
Users can follow as many museums as they want and interact with their content with Likes and Comments.
​
Transparent business model
GuideApp is ad-free and we don't mine your data, or use click-baiting algorithms. The customers we serve are the people who use our platform, museums and art lovers, not advertisers. ​​
​
As a creator, we believe that you – not hidden algorithms – should be in control of your earnings. You get paid every time you sell content, less standard transaction fees to Apple or Google and a 5% fee to GuideApp. It's that simple and it's a great deal compared to the cost of building and marketing a standalone app.​​
