Audiala’s Mission

At Audiala, we are passionate about the intersection between culture and technology. We believe that by reflecting on the paths of our ancestors—their successes and missteps—we can better navigate the complexities of the modern world. Learning culture and history can help us make sense of the ever increasing complexities of the world. History is not just a series of dates and events; it is the living narrative of humanity, woven with triumphs, tragedies, struggles, and breakthroughs. Most importantly, history teaches empathy, allowing us to appreciate the richness and diversity of human experience.

But where does the new technologies fit into this? For us, it’s about democratizing access to knowledge. It’s about gathering scattered sources, contextualizing information, and delivering it in the most effective way—tailored to the individual.

At Audiala, our mission begins with creating the ideal personal assistant for discovering or rediscovering the cities around us. Our vision for this assistant is clear:

Non-intrusive: It travels with you discreetly—resting in your pocket or bag, accessible by voice when you need it.
Universal: Whether you’re exploring a small village in Mexico or standing next to the Louvre in Paris, the knowledge you seek is readily available.
Inclusive: We aim to break down barriers, ensuring that our content is accessible to everyone, everywhere.
Personalized: Every person is unique. Why shouldn’t your assistant be uniquely tailored to your preferences and style?
Shareable: Sharing is caring and we believe in the power of communities. Sharing information should be effortless.
Sustainable: Instead of adding new devices to the world, we’re focused on using the technology you already own.

Our Plan

To achieve this mission, we’re taking strategic steps forward.

Phase 1: The App

We start with the fundamentals: an app compatible with both iOS and Android, featuring audio guides for the most documented places in any city. By using your device’s GPS, the app automatically selects relevant guides as you pass by landmarks. Initially, content will be available in a few languages and styles. What sets us apart? You can add nearly any place on earth, and guides will be generated in your language within minutes.

Phase 2: Personalization

The next step is to make the experience truly personal. The app will adapt to your preferences, delivering guides autonomously or based on your specific requests. Imagine being able to ask, “Hey Audiala, tell me stories from this street during the French Revolution,” or “What’s the history of this building?” Or even, “Create a tour that highlights Renaissance landmarks in this town.” Whether you’re walking, cycling, or driving, Audiala will tailor its suggestions to suit your journey.

Phase 3: Community and Collaboration

Finally, we bring people back into the equation. While technology is powerful, it has its limits. We envision a future where users contribute feedback, edit content, add new information, and are rewarded for their contributions. This step is crucial in making Audiala a dynamic, collaborative tool that benefits everyone.

Together, with Audiala, we are not just exploring the world—we are enriching it through knowledge, connection, and shared experiences. We would love for you to join us in shaping a future where culture, history, and technology unite to inspire curiosity and understanding for all.
