Building a tour companion that actually walks with you. Try it out!!

byβ€’

Hey Product Hunt! I'm Amey, co-founder of OxGuide.

My co-founder Navneet and I studied at Oxford Brookes and lived in Oxford for 3 years. Working there, tourists would constantly ask us about places to visit. What to see, where to go, what's worth the walk. Every day, the same questions.

That got us thinking: AI has done incredible things for trip planning. Itineraries, booking, research are all dramatically better. In-tour guidance is earlier in that journey. There are apps doing interesting things with audio, photo recognition, chatbots at landmarks. But the experience is still mostly moment-by-moment. Each stop is its own thing. We wanted to build an AI that carries context across your whole day, understands the geography around you, and adapts when plans change mid-walk. A guide that feels alive, that's actually there with you as you walk.

So we built OxGuide. A smart tour companion. Starting with Oxford, designed for every heritage city.

What it does today (MVP live on iOS and Android, free during Early Access)

  • Curated walks (famous locations, hidden colleges, literary Oxford) or explore freely

  • Turn-by-turn navigation through Oxford's lanes and college entrances

  • Point your camera and it helps to identify landmarks in real-time

  • AI guide that narrates stories like a knowledgeable tour companion with context from your entire journey

Where we're heading (Adding the end-to-end AI assistance Layer)

One conversation that handles your entire trip, in any city. An AI that carries context across your whole journey, understands the geography around you, and adapts when things change. Less like an app, more like a companion that's actually there with you.

Starting with Oxford, then Cambridge, Bath, and all the heritage cities.

Excited to be part of the Product Hunt community.
