About Curio

What Curio does

Curio shows the places worth knowing around you, or anywhere on the map: monuments, museums, churches, ruins, viewpoints, public art, memorials. Its places come from OpenStreetMap and Wikipedia, so it knows the famous sights and the little corners with a story.

For any of them, Curio writes a guide for you: in your language, at the length you choose, from a two-minute read to the full story. It reads it aloud like an audio guide, answers your questions about the place, even from a photo, and plans your day, stop by stop.

How Curio writes its guides

When you ask for a place's guide, Curio reads web sources about it at that moment, such as official sites, encyclopedias and heritage bodies, and an AI model writes your guide from them.

Every guide lists the sources it was written from and the date it was written, so you can check a fact and see how recent it is. You can have a guide rewritten with today's sources whenever you like.

AI can get things wrong. If something in a guide looks wrong, "Report a problem" in the guide reaches the team directly: we read every message and answer in the app.

Who makes Curio

Curio is made by Moty Studio, a small independent studio that designs, builds and publishes its own apps. Curio shows no ads: it lives from the Curio Pass that travellers buy for their trips.

Your privacy

Your precise position is only used to find the places around you: it never goes into our logs or our statistics, and Curio works without an account. The privacy policy says what Curio collects, why, and for how long.
