For museums & curators
Your collection, in many voices.
Traditional audio guides are costly to produce, and one size needs to fit all.
Wozani lets a community of knowledgeable and passionate people (your curators,
local experts, students and lifelong enthusiasts) record short commentaries on
the works you already display, each from a different perspective. You decide how
involved you want to be.
Many perspectives
A single painting can carry a curator's reading, an art historian's deep-dive,
and a child's favourite detail. Commentaries can range from casual to expert.
Visitors specify their interests, desired depth, and time they wish to spend,
and receive a custom tour that speaks to them. They can also follow existing
tours, or take a picture of an object to listen to the commentary most
appropriate for them.
You stay in control
Community tours are clearly marked as unofficial, and review is off by default
to not spam you. Switch on notifications or pre-publication checks for the
works you choose, and we take down anything you formally flag within 48 hours.
Endorse the commentaries and tours
Give a museum-certified badge to the commentaries and tours you approve.
Visitors can filter to hear only endorsed voices, while everything else stays
clearly marked as unofficial community content.
Reach every visitor
The app is already available in English, French, Dutch and German, and
commentaries can be translated into any major language while keeping the
original commentator's voice.
Automatic and human moderation
Every commentary is automatically checked before it goes live, and flagged
content is always reviewed by a person. Users can also flag content for
review.
See your statistics and recommendations
Museum admins can see anonymized statistics on which objects, tours and
commentaries are most popular, and receive recommendations of themes popular
at similar museums.
Built to be accessible
Designed for screen readers and keyboard navigation, with automatic captions
for every commentary, in step with the European Accessibility Act.
Rights respected
Works still under copyright are never reproduced as images without permission.
We show a clear note in their place instead. Creators keep the rights to what
they record.
Non-profit, and meant to stay that way
Wozani is an independent non-profit. There is no cost to your museum.
