Stop doomscrolling for local recs! Our AI model watches millions of Instagram/TikTok videos in real-time, picks the gems, and serves up the best dining, bars & events on a map. See the best of what’s happening nearby—no more wading through endless posts!
We’re the Wanderboat team — ex-Bing Chat builders (anyone miss it?).
The problem:
Living in the moment is great, but finding places shouldn’t feel like a chore. Right now it’s overwhelming content, unverified info, endless back-and-forth… you get the idea.
What we built:
Instead of drowning in tabs or skimming generic AI summaries, we created Wanderboat. It combines our POI search engine, multi-step Thinking Agent, and Vision Understanding model to see the world the way you do. No walls of text (promise) — just curated feeds + a map that surface the best dining, shows, attractions, hotels, and experiences wherever you are.
🍽 Eats, events, attractions, hotels, experiences — all in one place
🤖 AI recs, grounded in real photos & videos from real people
🗺 Chat-based feeds + immersive maps for planning and discovery
⚡ Personalized picks in seconds, tuned to your taste
Why we built it:
“You’re unique.” So your “best” answer should be too. Wanderboat learns your taste, instead of handing you someone else’s.
“Show me, don’t tell me.” Discovery should be visual — see why a spot’s special before you go.
“Ask how you talk.” Maps don’t handle natural search well (“best late-night dessert spot with live music”), but that’s how we actually ask.
Think the way you think. See what you see. All powered by data we self-indexed — that’s Wanderboat.
We’d love your thoughts, ideas, and hidden gems to make it better. Try it today and let us know what you think — every bit of feedback helps shape what’s next.
