Our take
Polarsteps was founded by avid travellers who set out to automate well documented travel experiences for its first users. Now, it aims to be the go-to for travel planning, tracking and blogging. It allows its users to enjoy the travel experience while taking care of the documentation.
Travel innovation is not new, however, Polarsteps sets itself apart by optimising their product to work independent of mobile reception when needed, catering for long and remote travel experiences.
It is this promised convenience that secured their impressive customer growth. They have used this to build larger teams and a more robust product offering to set them up as a leading travel app.
