About

Periplus is a mobile app development startup headquartered in Singapore. It was founded in early 2013, with a focus on designing solutions for the arts, heritage and cultural scene. The company is self-funded and privately held. As a partner to museums around the world, Periplus aims to empower visitors with relevant and timely information, and encourage independent exploration aided by technology.

The flagship product is the Periplus museum guide platform, which uses cloud-based servers to host the guides, and a mobile app to display and narrate the exhibit content. While the platform is designed to work like a conventional audio-guide, it leverages on the innovations in text-to-speech and mobile technology to reduce development time and costs by 90% compared to current audio-guide solutions, thus making it affordable for smaller museums with limited funding.
