Questions people ask first

How much does it cost to visit these sites in your area?

Most listed sites can be seen from a public road or sidewalk at no cost, and the app is free to use. Some sites are private homes, working churches or museums with their own hours and fees. The record for each one says what it is, so you know before you go.

Where does the information on these sites come from?

From published records: the National Register of Historic Places, the Recorded Texas Historic Landmark program, and the Georgia Historical Society and Georgia Department of Natural Resources marker program. Every site on the page names its source.

What does a license for your area include?

Routes built from every listed site in your area, your branding and stories, badges and challenges, and visitor counts you can report on. Terms are set per organization and area, so there is no single-price page.

Do we have to maintain the site data ourselves?

No. The listed sites come from the published records and are kept current centrally. You add the local stories and the routes you want visitors to follow.
