What it does

Every term: museums, science centres, aquariums and zoos in your city, the best-rated first, scored by xMap AI for a class trip with the age it suits best, mapped and saved to a sheet for teachers.

In one sentence: Monthly on the 1st at 08:00, in Sydney, find museums, science museums and 3 more in the area, score and rank them with xMap AI, sort them by fit score and keep the top 20, then show them on a map, add row in Google Sheets and email the list to you.

Why it is useful

Teachers plan trips every term and often go back to the same few places. A scored list shows the best for each age.

Who it is for

The time it saves

Monthly on the 1st at 08:00. Doing the same work by hand takes about 90 minutes each time, so it saves about 2 hours a month (an estimate). It is medium: 8 blocks.
