pulseA guide in weeks
No app to build: your destination on a guide that already works.
For councils, tourism offices and destinations
A digital city guide for your destination, without building an app
City Partner puts your destination in Pulse Travel with your official information and gives you anonymous data on what visitors look at. It starts with a paid pilot of agreed scope.
How can a destination get its own digital guide?
With City Partner: your city joins Pulse Travel with the tourism office's information, events and services, in several languages and offline. You receive anonymous usage data (what is viewed, when and in which language). It starts with a 4–8 week pilot, followed by an annual licence.

Destination FAQ
How much does City Partner cost?
It starts with a paid 4–8 week pilot of agreed scope, followed by an annual licence. The price depends on the scope; we propose it after a first meeting.
Is it better than building our own tourism app?
It is usually faster and cheaper: the destination uses a guide that already works, in several languages and offline, and does not have to maintain an app or publish it in app stores.
Does Pulse Travel help a smart tourism destination?
It provides two building blocks that smart destinations usually need: accessible, multilingual digital tourist information, and visitor usage data to base decisions on. It is not a certification.
What data does the destination receive?
Aggregated, anonymous usage data: most viewed places and categories, languages and times. Never visitors' position or identity.
Does my city need to be in Pulse Travel already?
No. If it is not, the pilot includes adding it. If it is, the destination's official information is added.
Is it GDPR compliant?
Yes. Measurement is optional for visitors, stores neither their position nor who they are, and the data is kept on a server in the EU (Germany).
