Project descriptions
Float aims to enhance cultural immersion by connecting travellers with local natives worldwide through a gamified ‘Message in a Bottle’ feature. Float serves as a cultural compass — whether it’s for assembling a futon in a Japanese Ryokan or gaining trustworthy insights while traversing India. By integrating AI with human expertise, Float provides instant reliable translations, encouraging cultural understanding and user engagement through features like polls and threads, connecting learners with native speakers for a genuine exchange of language and culture.
