Otocast provides a platform for narrated audio guides—used for exploring, navigating and discovering more about your surroundings, wherever you are in the world. Audio commentary for each ‘point of interest’ is provided by people intimately familiar with the location, whether it is the artist who created a public art piece, an architect who designed the structure, or a local resident who knows the history of a particular place.
Mission Data developed Otocast mobile apps for iOS and Android that currently feature more than 220 audio guides in over 125 cities around the world, with information for over 3,600 points of interest. The guides have expanded across the US and Eastern Canada, as well as in Europe.
