LONDON, July 7, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- , a location-based audio travel app designed to enrich the driving experience, is excited to announce its upcoming launch on and forthcoming launch on app stores. The innovative location-based audio app officially launches on Kickstarter today, offering users a unique way to experience travel through immersive audio storytelling.

Audio Stories, On Demand, For Any Location, Anywhere In The World

This groundbreaking platform intelligently plays stories about the area around you, tapping into over 4 million cities, towns and villages from all around the world, in over 50 languages - dynamically playing audio stories from 15 categories, whenever and wherever you want.

A Passionate Return to the Open Road

Drive Stories is a passionate return to the open road and the driving experience, helping put our focus back onto enjoyable moments of open-road freedom and a leading example of how artificial intelligence can help unlock and curate huge quantities of factual content and information in an exciting new way.

The Drive Stories platform values experience over technology: imagine putting your finger anywhere on the map, anywhere in the world, and hearing stories from 15 categories, in over 50 languages, of that location. Drive Stories literally unlocks millions of factual stories around the world.

Anywhere in the world, Drive Stories works

The app pinpoints your exact geo-location (on-demand) and presents your nearest 10 locations to choose from. You simply tap 'play' or choose from one of 15 categories, and the app plays you audio stories - from History, Arts & Culture, Literature, Architecture, Wildlife & Nature, Important People and more. Users can choose the voice that is used, as well as from 50 languages - thereby unlocking one of the world's most robust and comprehensive location-information platforms available on the market.

The possibilities are incredible: there are roughly 4 million cities, towns and villages in the world. Multiply that by 15 story categories for each location and Drive Stories has the potential of delivering well over a potential of 60 million unique stories.

Integrated Across All Devices - Phone & In-Car

The app will be available as a native app for Apple and Android phones, as well as natively integrated on Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Once installed, Drive Stories can be enjoyed directly on your car's integrated infotainment system, allowing quick and seamless access anywhere you go.

Select from 15 Categories For Any Location

Drive Stories provide a selection of 15 story categories for every location, providing a vast amount of options for users to explore and engage with. The category selections all provide a different lens on the location and are played as seamless real-time audio streams while driving.

The categories that are available in the app are:

• Introduction (of Location)
• Important People
• Wildlife & Nature
• Economy & Industry
• Food
• Architecture
• Sport
• Political & Social

Available In Over 50 Languages

The Drive Stories app dynamically creates and delivers audio stories on-demand, for any location, anywhere in the world and translates these stories in real-time in over 50 languages. This unlocks access for people all over the world - exploring and adventuring in their native countries and while traveling across the world. The app therefore enables the potential to unlock factual content delivered in your language of choice as audio stories for anyone, anywhere.

The Most Powerful (And Easiest) Travel Story App Available

Drive Stories has been created for a powerful and specific use case - removing the head-down-in-screen death scroll and empowering us to access and enjoy phenomenal amounts of historical and educational location data in an incredibly easy and enjoyable way : just hit 'play' and drive and listen. It's that easy.

From The Founder

Drive Stories is a platform coming out of the award-winning multi-disciplinary experience design studio, ZeroSixty, based in London, UK. The founder of ZeroSixty and Drive Stories, Thomas Moeller, is a leading designer in the industry who has led transformational design programs for some of the world's biggest and well-known brands. Drive Stories is a passion project, and one inspired by years working in the travel, automotive and aviation industries as well as insights coming from numerous high-visibility and awarded artificial intelligence platforms.

"The goal for Drive Stories is all about a new type of experience and leveraging incredible amounts of disparate location data into a beautifully elegant and simple format," said Thomas Moeller, Founder & Designer of Drive Stories.

"Previously, we were busy Googling or wrestling with random websites and search results to understand all about the locations we were traveling in or through - it's just too convoluted, confusing and inefficient. The effort is on the user to sift through mountains of online content while you're on the go. It just doesn't work, and it's just not accessible." added Moeller. "The Drive Stories platform is a game-changer because we're seeing the value of converting the breadth of factual content that is available online into a super enjoyable, easily consumed audio format."

"In creating Drive Stories, we're unlocking history, facts, local knowledge and insight and fascinating location-based stories that are deeply informative, entertaining and educational. It becomes a really powerful tool to help tell the story of local towns, cities, villages and the history of their people and location." said Moeller. "Drive Stories signifies something bigger, where artificial intelligence can be used in a very transformative way behind the scenes - to make all this content accessible and use it to power new types of experiences, education and entertainment. With the right application, the technology actually makes it feel human, inspiring and engaging."

Drive Stories is built on a combination of licensed, open-source and proprietary AI. The team behind Drive Stories is a collection of experience designers, AI specialists, software engineers, iOS and Android developers, and automotive specialists with development experience in Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
