a web version, so everyone can participate

About the App and Trazzler’s Philosophy

The places we go and the things we do are personal and meaningful. A sad fact: most sites that recommend or review places are neither. Three years ago, our small team blew up the four-stars-and-a-rant model popularized by TripAdvisor/Yelp and started from scratch with real editors, writers, photographers, and a new framework for exploring the world. Trazzler goes deeper than a check in or SEO-bait content lifted from third-party sources. As you play, you’ll learn more about yourself and your friends. You’re building a complex personality, an expression of who you are and what you like to do. We value your creativity and experience—soon, we’ll bring our popular writing and photography contests to the app so you can compete for freelance assignments and share the places you love.
