An app built for one city.
Savannah In My Pocket helps visitors decide what to do, where to go, and which local businesses to visit.
It brings the city's places, experiences, and local businesses together in one place, organized around the decisions visitors actually make.
It came from the driver's seat.
I spent a lot of time driving visitors around Savannah. Nearly every ride, someone asked a version of the same question: what should we do while we're here?
I could answer it for one car at a time. Savannah In My Pocket was my attempt to answer it for everyone—and building it showed me how much bigger the underlying problem was.
Early outside validation.
I pitched Cities In My Pocket at Startup Savannah's GRIT Pitch competition and placed third.
The first city on a bigger platform.
Savannah is where Cities In My Pocket began, and it is the first city on the platform.
It's where each part of the wider system is being designed and tested first.
