Hot 25 Startups 2020: Questo

Questo’s approach to fulfilling the needs of city-bound wanderlusters gives it an edge to grow and develop a fun product that has already entertained more than 50,000 people since 2017.

Users follow clues and solve puzzles as part of a fictional story while exploring and discovering new places as a part of a “city game” on an app.

As of October 2019, the app available in more than 15 countries.

Goals for 2020

"Our main focus at the moment is the global distribution of Questo. Today we offer quests in 50 European cities and, by the end of 2020, we aim to become available in +200 cities around the world.

"For this, we are working on improving the quest creation process for our storytellers so that we can scale faster.

"As for the selling side, we recently started working with some large tour operators which are interested in including Questo in their package trips as an alternative to a walking tour.

"In parallel, we'll launch a funding round very soon."
