Guiding visitors the smart way
Optimise data capture, people flow, dwell time & revenue generation.
The ‘You. Smart. Thing.’ travel assistant can be tailored to enable organisations to offer content-enhanced wayfinding and curated low-carbon door-to-door travel plans that nudge visitors towards net-zero travel.
Personalised
We’ve delivered over 1 million personal travel plans. Personalised messaging typically increases upsell conversions by ~20%, whilst our automated travel alerts attract an unrivaled 67% engagement rate.
Accessible
All visitors benefit from customised routing. 10% use our step-free travel planning and request assistance features to help with transport & destination accessibility, whilst 45% use our EV or active travel options.
Sustainable
We average a 30% decrease in visitor CO2e by influencing modal choice. 55% selected active travel options for UK City of Culture 2021 events. 34% cycled, 21% walked, and 26% selected public transport.
Nothing to Download or Install
Easily embedded within web, mobile, ticket booking and customer relationship management systems, ‘You. Smart. Thing.’ adds an additional personalisation layer to services such as Google Maps. This allows destination operators to capture and maintain the visitor relationship, rather than handing off to third parties for travel planning and directions.

This data can be used for travel demand management, to handle disruptions, improve accessibility, promote active travel, measure transit-based CO2 emissions, and for highly targeted marketing.
