› Why Matzu
Not a narrator. A local expert in your pocket.
Matzu knows where to go, where to eat, what’s on, and the stories behind it all — and it just talks to you.
A local expert, not a narrator.
Matzu knows where to go and why it matters — the famous sights and the streets only a local would point you to.
“I’m hungry — find me a spot.”
Ask for food and Matzu recommends a place nearby, then opens the booking site so you can grab a table.
History & deep local knowledge.
Historical sites, the stories behind them, and the context that turns a building into a place you remember.
Themed tours for your obsession.
A cocktail crawl. A Sherlock Holmes walk through London. Caravaggio’s Rome, church by church. Tell Matzu your obsession and get a tour built for it.
“What’s on this weekend?”
Matzu knows local events — “What’s on in Berlin this weekend?” — and works them into your day.
It sends you the links.
Tickets, bookings, websites — Matzu drops the links right in the chat. Intuitive enough to just talk to.

› From the press
Put to the test — and found practical.
“Matzu helps you plan the trip — but it can do much more.” Tages-Anzeiger “The information feels well-founded and gives a good first summary.” “What’s handy about Matzu: you can ask specific follow-up questions.” “Speak to Matzu in Swiss German, and the AI answers in Swiss German.” “Interactivity instead of rigid audio tours.”
› FAQ
Good questions.
How is it different from ChatGPT?
ChatGPT gives you a wall of text you have to scroll back through. Matzu gives you a fixed itinerary of waypoint cards you can reorder, revisit, and that remember what you’ve already done — plus a live, location-aware guide that narrates the right story at the right spot, hands-free.
Already planned with ChatGPT?
Paste it into Matzu and it builds you a map and waypoint cards with full details — turning a chat transcript into a real, walkable day.
Which languages does Matzu speak?
Matzu currently supports English, German, Italian, French and Spanish. Talk to it in any of those five and it answers in kind.
Do I need a connection?
Planning, up-to-date place information and links, and live Ask Matzu conversations need mobile data or Wi-Fi. Narrations you download in advance can play offline.
What does it cost?
Start with 30 free voice minutes. Then top up as needed — minutes never expire. Tiers start at 20 min for $1.99.
