The Basics: Explore Galore is a free downloadable app that helps individuals and agencies create fun, informative, and educational audio tours recorded by professional voice actors. Explore Galore will help create a world where people seek a greater understanding of one another and the value of life by encouraging people to explore the diversity of the world, learn, and develop an appreciation through understanding, compassion, and connection.
Hello:
I am looking for an investor of a minimum of 205,000 to complete my app development with Algoworks.
At its core, Explore Galore is an app-based business with a mission to help people “discover the hidden treasures of the world and its people” through engaging, immersive, and interactive experiences.
I was inspired to start this company because some of the best experiences of my life have come from meeting incredible people during my journeys—often in the most unexpected places, like small, seemingly insignificant towns off the beaten path. There’s so much wisdom and inspiration to be gained from these amazing individuals, who come from all walks of life.
I wanted to create a way for people to connect with these stories, the history, and the life lessons that can come from understanding our world more deeply. My goal was to make something that anyone could access and enjoy, regardless of their social status, financial situation, or where they live.
Explore Galore isn’t just about exploring places—it’s about bringing people together, creating connections, and making the world a better place. By encouraging people to get out into nature, stay active, spend time with loved ones, and appreciate the beauty and diversity around them, Explore Galore has the potential to inspire healthier, more meaningful lives for everyone.
Explore Galore is built around guided audio tours that give adventurers a unique way to connect with nature, history, and culture. As part of our national rollout “50 Trails In 50 States”, we intend to partner with State Parks and Recreation Departments across all 50 states to create 50 initial trails. These partnerships are mutually beneficial, as parks provide their expert knowledge and location-specific information to help us build the trails, all at no cost to them. In return, the audio tours we design become a lasting income source for the parks and the company.
Here’s how the revenue-sharing model works:
- Parks employees get free access to build their tour in the app which are then reviewed and updated as needed to ensure quality content such as sufficient detail, scientific and historic accuracy, quality images, and other factors.
- Once live, each trail is available for download at an affordable price of approximately $5 per trail.
- For the first 500 downloads of each trail, 100% of the revenue goes to Explore Galore. This covers the production and shipment of trail markers, which parks install themselves. It also provides an additional 25 trail markers for their next trail, encouraging them to expand while eliminating any overhead costs for us.
- After the initial 500 downloads, parks receive 20% of every download, creating a sustainable, ongoing revenue stream they can use for trail maintenance and improvements.
This model not only helps parks enhance their offerings but also ensures that adventurers have access to well-maintained, high-quality trails while supporting outdoor exploration and education.
The benefits of this partnership for State Parks include:
- Enhancing visitor engagement with immersive and informative audio tour experiences.
- Creating a sustainable revenue stream with minimal upfront investment.
- Promoting state parks to a wider audience, encouraging outdoor recreation and exploration.
- Educating the public and raising awareness on important topics, such as conservation and history.
- Improving safety and accessibility through clearly marked trails and real-time weather warnings.
- Fostering inclusivity by offering tours in multiple languages to reach diverse audiences.
- Leveraging virtual and augmented reality to provide guided tours of real locations, reducing environmental impact.
- Offering marketing opportunities for park merchandise, upcoming events, and other initiatives.
In addition, because of the diverse features and target audiences, Explore Galore offers countless ways to enrich lives while creating additional revenue opportunities. Here are just a few:
- Digital Hiking Logs – Users can record their adventures and turn their hiking logs into downloadable books, preserving cherished family memories for generations.
- Family History Tours – Families can create personalized tours by geotagging meaningful locations, uploading audio stories, and adding photos to celebrate their unique histories.
- Fitness Pacing Guides – Fitness enthusiasts can create and sell customized pacing guides, generating income through subscriber-based fitness programs.
- Local Business Marketing – The app provides local businesses with in-app advertising opportunities, connecting them with nearby customers and driving economic growth in the area.
We’ve invested roughly $30,000 into the business and app development and are excited to collaborate with Algoworks to finalize the app and its numerous features within the next 8 months. Algoworks is a US-based software development company known for delivering end-to-end services in web and mobile app development. Since 2006, they have expanded globally and worked with Fortune 500 companies, helping them improve their digital capabilities. Their expertise as a Salesforce Summit Partner, Microsoft Gold Partner, and AWS Consulting Partner has been invaluable in helping us bring our vision to life. We have also spent countless hours planning and designing wireframes to ensure the best user experience.
Additionally, we are working with Revity Marketing to maximize our reach and impact. Our website, www.exploregalore.org, is being updated to better reflect the app’s purpose, features, and potential while showcasing our growing vision. Our progress so far has been incredible, and we are continuing to move forward in preparation for an amazing rollout.
Revity Marketing is currently spearheading promotion for our semi-annual golf tournament in Southern Utah, which supports two wonderful charities: Memory Matters and Girls on the Run. Each of these tournaments is projected to generate $40,000–$58,000 in revenue, highlighting our ability to successfully manage and market events that resonate with communities while reaching a key portion of our target audience.

I hope this gives you a clearer understanding of what we’re doing and how we’re working to make a positive impact on the world.
