The Audio Guide visitors keep

Ditch Physical Devices. Easy QR Code Audio Tours for self-guided museum visits.





A Nubart audioguide card to go


A truly innovative audio guide system


Boost visitor engagement and satisfaction with Nubart's innovative audio guide web-app.

No need for expensive apps or devices - visitors simply scan a QR code to access your museum's audio tour directly from their smartphone.

An attractive branded card with a unique, non-transferable QR code provides visitors with access to the audio tour's rich multimedia content directly on their smartphones. Because the printed code on the card is non-transferable, your audio guides have commercial value and can be profitable for your venue.

Our audio guide apps are accessible.

Museums gain great insight through visitor usage data and satisfaction survey.

Why Nubart?



Because audio guide devices require complex logistics and generate electronic waste.


And because audio tour apps are hard to monetise and only about 2% of visitors download them.




As simple as it gets

Why an audio guide device if everybody has a smartphone ?



Easy to use

The visitor only has to scan the QR to access the content. Thanks to our innovative scrolling interface, finding POIs is easy and intuitive even for the digitally-unsavvy.

Monetizable

Unlike apps, a Nubart-card can be sold, as it is non-transferable. Nubart can be a source of revenue for your museum !

Suitable for sponsorship

Unlike devices or apps, it allows the incorporation of the logo of one or more sponsors on the printed card.

La audioguía de Nubart

Tool for docent-guided tours

Optionally, you can incorporate a module with a digital group guiding system. This way you don't need to buy expensive radio guides.

Very high takeup-rate (TUR)

Our cards achieve a TUR of 10-20% when sold separately and 45-85% when included in the admission.

Offline

Poor connectivity in your venue? Nubart's audio guides offer an innovative offline mode. After scanning the QR code for the first time at a location with internet, the visitor can access the complete audio guide at any time as if using an app. The QR-code can even be scanned again in areas without any connectivity.

Eco-friendly

Devices generate harmful electronic waste. Nubart's audio cards are printed on FSC cardboard with CO2 compensation.

Just audio, or a complete multimedia guide?



Videos, sliders, modular structure, offline mode, downloadable files, remote control of the audio guide, option to upload files or to leave voice messages...

All this and more can be integrated into a Nubart audio guide



Monetise your audio tour cards

How do we make our audio guide cards non-transferable?

An audio guide is an important additional service offered by your museum. However, only 15-30% of your visitors will want to use it. The production of an audio tour is expensive, so you might want to try to get some of that cost back. Or you might see your audio guides as a revenue stream for your institution.

If you make the same QR code available to everyone, you won't be able to monetize the audio guide because those links are public and can be shared.

At Nubart, we've patented a system called Lightweight Web Access Control. It lets us recognize the user's device anonymously. The legitimate owner of the audio guide card can access the content again whenever they want, but they can't share it with others. This makes your content more valuable, whether you decide to sell the cards separately or include them in the admission fee.

Although the QR-codes on Nubart's cards are non-transferable, they can be reused by their rightful owners at any time. This is important because being able to keep the card and reuse the audio guide is a big selling point for visitors and increases the take-up rate.

If you wish to waive the cards, we can provide the links or QRs online through our API. This way you can integrate them into your ticketing system.

How does it work?

Our QR-codes are non-transferable...

Lightweight Web Access Control by Nubart - patented

  • Non-transferable: The first device can access the audio guide directly by scanning the QR code.
    The QR code is unique and cannot be shared publicly.
    Most visitors do not go any further.

...but reusable

Lightweight Web Access Control by Nubart - patented

  • Reusable: Visitors who wish to access the content again from a second device will require an access link via email. Once the link has been clicked, the second device will then inherit the access rights. The link can’t be shared.
  • Visitors can still access the content as often as needed from any other device. The access link will always be sent to the previously provided email address. This email address cannot be changed.

Geolocation features in Nubart's audio guides

Need to show your visitors the way?

Interactive maps with visitors' locations, geo-scrolling, overlay for indoors...


Our geolocation package covers virtually all of your visitors' navigation needs.

Your visitors can open an interactive map with all points of interest. The map shows the visitor's location.

Each geolocated point of interest has a "show me on the map" button.

Outdoors, our geolocated audio tracks light up and automatically scroll to the top of the mobile screen when visitors approach a particular point. On Android, this process is enhanced by a slight vibration of the cell phone.

We can incorporate an overlay with the floor plan of your venue to facilitate indoor navigation.

Nubart's audio tours are a tool for researching museum audiences

Would you like to know your visitors better?



Collect visitor data without being invasive


Evaluation and audience research are central to the success of a museum. Nubart cards are not only an innovative audio guide that provides a multilingual self-guided tour to your audience, but also an ideal data collector. Nubart collects usage and behavioral data from your visitors' smartphones anonymously, without ever violating their privacy.

As a Nubart customer you'll have a password-protected access to your usage reports. Included in these reports, among others:

  • Home country of the visitor
  • Visitor’s native language
  • Visitors per day
  • Visitors by time-of-day
  • Duration of the visit
  • Ranking of most-listened-to tracks

Nubart has an integrated feedback form for visitor research

Let your visitors tell you what they think

Opinion poll directly in the audio guide


Our free data reports collect a great deal of anonymous information about your visitors and their behavior. Certain important information cannot be retrieved automatically, but you can ask your visitors to provide it to you.

That's why after the last track of every audio guide, the visitor can interact with your museum through a short, 5-question survey. Our two standard questions are:

  • an overall rating of the exhibition on a scale of 1 to 5
  • a text field for comments on the exhibition or on the audio guide

Optionally, visitors who rate the visit highly are invited to rate your venue on Google.

Nubart's customers can receive visitor comments in real-time by email.

Your museum can select three additional questions from a list of options, such as age and gender, as long as visitors choose to share this info with you. Thanks to our unique code system, the visitor can only answer the questionnaire once, ensuring the quality of the data. Incomplete answers are also captured.

Do you need content production for your audio guide?



No problem. You will be assigned a production manager who will organize everything for you. We have a wide selection of script writers, translators and voice over artists.

Low budget? We also have amazingly natural AI-voices.
