HistoryAround: AI Travel Guide

AI travel guide to the history around you. Scan any place and discover its past.

Features & Capabilities

Most of the world's history isn't in museums. It's in the buildings you walk past every day — the corner you cross on your commute, the side street you've never noticed.

HistoryAround is your AI travel guide to that history. Open the app, tap Scan, and the places around you reveal what they once were and who shaped them — each story written for the place itself, in the moment.

WHY AN AI HISTORY GUIDE
Most history apps hand you the same canned guidebook entries. HistoryAround uses AI to write a fresh story for the exact spot you're standing on — drawing on OpenStreetMap, Wikipedia and Wikidata, then composing it into something readable. A personal travel companion that works in your hometown as well as abroad.

MULTIPLE LENSES ON EVERY PLACE
Each discovery comes with several perspectives on the same building or street — the people behind it, the layers beneath it, the events that almost reshaped it. Different lenses for different kinds of curiosity.

WALK MODE — HISTORY NEAR YOU, AUTOMATICALLY
Begin an exploration session and put your phone in your pocket. The app quietly notifies you as you pass somewhere worth knowing about. The search radius adapts to wherever you are — closer in dense cities, wider in the countryside. A walking tour that just runs in the background.

ATLAS MODE — EXPLORE ANYWHERE ON EARTH
Drop a pin anywhere in the world and explore its history from where you sit. Useful for trip planning, idle curiosity, or learning a new neighborhood before you ever step into it. A virtual travel guide to any city, town or village.

SAVE AND ORGANIZE YOUR DISCOVERIES
Keep landmarks, stories and places in collections you can revisit and share. Build a personal atlas of where you've been and what you've found.

AVAILABLE IN 14 LANGUAGES
Both the interface and the AI-generated stories are translated for travelers and explorers worldwide.

FREE, WITH OPTIONAL PREMIUM
The free tier covers everyday exploration. Premium raises daily scan and story limits, expands collections, and organizes new discoveries by city automatically. It also supports the small independent team building the app.
