A local guide in your pocket. In every city.
Pick a city or open your saves — we generate the full trip. AI itinerary, audio walking tour, hidden gems included.
Three steps, start to soundtrack. You save what catches your eye; Placeful turns the scroll into a self-guided walking tour with a story at every stop.
Pick a city. Rome, Paris, Lisbon, Tokyo. We've already mapped what locals love.
The AI shapes your saved spots into a tight, day-by-day route. Drag, drop, swap.
Every spot is editable. Tap to remove, hold to reorder. Your trip, your taste.
The audio guide cues itself as you approach each spot. No tapping, no fiddling.
Instagram, TikTok, Maps, a screenshot. We catch the place, the photo, the link.
Pick your dates. The AI shapes saved spots into a tight route, day by day.
The audio guide cues itself as you approach each spot. No tapping, no fiddling.
Real product, shot in Paris, Rome, Lisbon, Tokyo. Tap any city to start your own.
Save spots from anywhere. Plan a walkable day in seconds. Walk it with a self-guided audio tour that knows the story at every corner — hidden gems included.
Tell Placeful how long you've got. It arranges your saved spots into a real, walkable day — right hours for each stop, the right order, hidden gems slipped in along the way. No spreadsheets. No 50 open tabs.
Not a plaque. Not a Wikipedia paste. Three minutes of the thing nobody tells you — what to look for, who lived here, the detail that changes the painting. Written fresh by the AI for your route, voiced naturally, timed to your walk.
Find the small girl in the gold dress, just to the left of centre. She doesn't belong here. She's half the size of the soldiers around her, and she's carrying a dead chicken at her belt. Nobody knows who she is. Rembrandt never told.
One tap from the share sheet. We catch the place, fill in the photo, and queue it for your next trip.
Tell Placeful when you need to be back. The route bends around your schedule, your train, your dinner reservation. You'll never miss it.
Every save, every walk, one live view.
Your saves, their saves, all in one map. Vote on what stays. The trip takes shape without scrolling three days of messages.
By city, by mood, by who you go with.
Every spot is filtered through real Google reviews, recency, and signals from people who actually live there. The places that got 4.7 stars from locals make the cut. The TripAdvisor-glamour shots don't.
Walking past a place you screenshotted last winter? Placeful nudges you the moment you're near, plays back the original reel, and reads you the story you didn't know was there.
A Brooklyn brownstone at golden hour. A Tokyo backstreet you saved last winter. A Gòtic alley in Barcelona. Save the spots you find online; we'll write the walk and tell you the story.
+ every other city you'll ever scroll past
"I'd saved a hundred Lisbon things on Instagram. Placeful turned them into a Saturday walk, and somewhere around the third stop I realised: I was being told a story about the city, not just walked through it."
The short version of what Placeful is, what it costs, and how to get it.
Placeful Trips is an AI self-guided audio walking tour app for iPhone. It turns the places you save on Instagram, TikTok and Google Maps into a planned, walkable day — and narrates a short story at each stop automatically as you arrive. Think of it as a local guide in your pocket, in any city.
It's free during the current TestFlight beta — no credit card required. Paid plans are planned for the public App Store launch.
Not yet. It's iPhone-only during the beta. You can join the Android waitlist to be notified when it's ready.
Google Maps gives directions; a guided tour follows a human guide on a fixed schedule. Placeful turns your own saved places into a self-guided walking route and tells you the story of each spot automatically as you arrive — on your own schedule, at a fraction of the cost of a paid group tour.

Amsterdam, Rome, Paris, Lisbon and Tokyo, with more added over time. You can listen to a couple of free sample stories right now.
Join the free TestFlight beta at the invite link. Install Apple's TestFlight app first, then open the link and you're in.
More in the Guides — including what a self-guided audio tour is and how to turn your saves into a trip.
We're letting in early testers a week at a time. Join the TestFlight beta — AI itinerary, audio walking tour, hidden gems, all in your pocket — before the App Store launch this summer.
