How VoxiGuide works
How a phone call becomes an audio tour guide.
VoxiGuide turns a phone call into an audio tour guide. Visitors dial the number you publish on signage, hear your guide content, and explore at their own pace. Short sponsor messages can help fund the experience, so the guide stays free for visitors.

What VoxiGuide is
Audio access infrastructure, not another visitor app.
VoxiGuide is a phone-based audio tour guide system for museums, attractions, heritage sites, and tourism destinations. You provide the guide content, VoxiGuide configures the phone number and audio flow, and visitors call when they are ready to listen.
Pew Research Center reports that 91% of U.S. adults own a smartphone, including 78% of adults aged 65 and older. A phone call reaches visitors that app-based guides can miss, including older guests, school groups, and travelers who would rather not install anything. Source
In a nutshell
- Visitors call a phone number you put on signs, maps, tickets, and your website.
- They hear guide content for a stop, exhibit, route, or theme with no app or download.
- A short sponsor message may play before or between segments, similar to ad-supported audio.
- You choose the content, the structure, and which sponsor categories are allowed.
- You can run it sponsor-funded or as an ad-free venue subscription.
Step by step
The flow is built around one action visitors already understand.
Visitors call
They call from their own phone and choose the stop, exhibit, route, or language they need.
They listen
A short sponsor message may play first, then the guide content starts and visitors keep exploring.
You stay in control
Your team controls the content, tone, structure, and acceptable sponsor categories.
For your team
Launch from the content and visitor touchpoints you already have.
Existing scripts, signage text, docent notes, and tour maps are a strong starting point. VoxiGuide structures that material by stop, route, chapter, or theme and makes it available through a simple call flow.
- Create or adapt your guide content. Start with scripts, wall text, tour notes, or fresh recordings.
- Choose the structure. Organize content by exhibit, route, stop number, language, or visitor theme.
- Review the experience. Confirm the flow, content tone, and sponsor rules before launch.
- Promote the number. Add it to physical and digital visitor touchpoints where people already look.
For visitors
Call, listen, keep moving.
From the visitor's side, VoxiGuide feels like calling a friendly local guide who knows the place. There is no install funnel to manage, no device rental desk to staff, and no software for visitors to learn.

Funding that stays secondary to the visitor experience.
Sponsor messages are short audio placements that play before or between guide segments. They are clearly separated from guide content and can help keep the guide free for visitors.
- Sponsor categories are defined before launch
- Sensitive categories can be excluded from the start
- Messages stay short, clearly marked, and context-aware
Sample placement
"This guide is supported by Café Heritage, open today on the corner just past the museum entrance."
Funding options
Sponsor-funded or venue-funded. Choose the model that fits.
VoxiGuide offers two paths, so you can match the model to your budget and your tolerance for sponsor messages.
Sponsor-funded
Keep the guide free for your venue and visitors.
Short sponsor messages fund the experience. Your venue sets category rules and reviews the call experience before it goes live.
Venue-funded
Run an ad-free audio guide subscription.
Your organization pays directly and no sponsor messages play. This fits venues that prefer a fully uninterrupted guide experience.
FAQ
Common questions about phone-based audio guides.
Do visitors need to download an app?
No. VoxiGuide works through a standard phone call, so there is nothing to install, update, or sign in to.
What does it cost the visitor?
Standard call rates from the visitor's own phone plan may apply, depending on the number and market. The guide content itself is free to listen to.
Can we control the sponsor messages?
Yes. You approve which sponsor categories are allowed and can exclude any category that does not suit your setting.
Do we need new equipment or staff?
No. There is no hardware to buy and no rental desk to run. You promote a phone number and keep your content up to date.
Can it work across more than one language or location?
VoxiGuide structures content by stop, route, and language, and supports multilingual delivery for venues. Confirm the exact language and routing setup for your site with the team before you publish specific claims.
