Kapesni For Museum Staff

Easy, Affordable Mobile Device Tours for All Cultural Organizations

Kapesni helps your visitors discover, understand, enjoy, articulate, share, and remember. Our software delivers rich features and a polished interface design that would be prohibitively expensive and time-consuming for most museums to develop individually. In making this significant investment on behalf of the cultural community, Kapesni has created a technology platform affordable enough for a small historical society with 1-2 staff members, and robust enough for a large urban museum.

We've built Kapesni to be so easy to use that nontechnical staff can upload all content for a rich, full-featured tour in an afternoon. We offer two additional services if you'd like guidance during your Kapesni implementation:

Content creation and production
(text, photos, graphics/imaging, audio, video)
Custom template design for your organization's tours

We handle content production and custom design on a project-by-project basis. Email us if you'd like more information.
