Opportunity / Problem Statement

Opportunity
Problem Statement

Our exploratory user research shows that while maps are the most commonly used mobile app people use when exploring unfamiliar areas, most people want to learn about niche local histories and legends in ways that offer more immersion, interaction, and freedom than just reading, pathfinding, or going on a guided tour.

Currently there are no apps that provide a user-tailored AR experience to serve the needs of this majority. This means there is a new-market opportunity for an app that encourages our primary target audience to explore in their own terms.
