Switch from old, clumsy and expensive paper maps to digital interactive guidebooks

Switch from old, clumsy and expensive paper maps to digital interactive guidebooks

27 September 2024

Reveel provides a cost-effective platform that allows destinations of all sizes—from small museums to large cities—to digitalize their paper maps and info displays.

We all know the feeling — you arrive at a destination excited, only to be handed a paper map. You're expected to navigate and read everything yourself — usually either in the local language or, if you're lucky, in English. But why? Isn't printing paper maps already a hassle on its own?

The reason these outdated solutions are still used is that building custom digital tools is expensive and time-consuming for destinations. Everyone wants to get rid of paper maps — and for good reason. They come with several issues, such as:

  • Maintaining up-to-date information — new maps can’t be printed constantly
  • Sharing the experience forward — paper maps are difficult to pass on to others
  • Paper waste

How can Reveel help?

Through Reveel, a destination can cost-effectively create a modern digital experience for its visitors. Instead of spending time and money developing their own digital solution, Reveel is ready to use instantly — and pays for itself through the savings from reducing paper maps.

  1. Through Reveel, destinations can turn their paper maps into digital interactive guidebooks that open directly on visitors’ phones in 28 different languages. This way, visitors receive all essential information — including an interactive map — with a single QR code scan. Reveel works both in the browser and in iOS and Android apps. This allows destinations to eliminate outdated paper maps and serve guests smoothly in their own languages, increasing accessibility.

  2. Reveel enables destinations to provide all visitor information cost-effectively. The system automatically translates all content into multiple languages. This not only significantly improves the visitor experience (imagine being abroad and getting destination info in your own language), but also encourages visitors to leave feedback directly through the guidebook — helping destinations continuously improve the experience. See an example from Suomenlinna.

  3. With Reveel’s system, destinations can manage all their content smoothly. Paper map content becomes outdated over time, and updates often require waiting for a new batch to be printed. Through Reveel, destinations can update, schedule, and add content — text, audio, or images — at any time, with no additional costs.

Why join Reveel?

Instead of cities, hotels, museums, and UNESCO sites developing expensive digital solutions of their own — which can cost tens of thousands of euros and require extensive staff hours — Reveel provides a platform that is affordable, simple to implement and ready to use immediately, without the headache of digitalization projects.

Rather than building their own costly and time-consuming solutions, destinations (cities, municipalities, hotels, museums, UNESCO sites) can join Reveel and solve the problem without stress.
