Mumbai: Actor and philanthropist Sonu Sood & tech entrepreneur Jitin Bhatia have launched a travel-based social media app Explurger. They claim that half a million users from over 40 countries are already present on the beta version of the app. The app creates automatic travelogues by using artificial intelligence. It gamifies the social experience and rewards users for being socially active. 

Explurger, which targets the travel community, claims to be the first social media app that offers rewards for its users to be active on its platform. Also, the more a user engages with the platform the higher the Explurger level goes. This results in more recognition on the platform. It creates a personalised travelogue for each user. Every time a user creates a post or an Explurge-in, the app's artificial intelligence updates the travelogue, so every mile, city, country, pub, club,etc., get added to it. So travelling within one's own city and exploring new areas also counts. The app has features like a bucket list and future travel plans.

Explurger co-founder actor Sonu Sood explains that exploring new places is a passion of his. "So Explurger is basically borne out of this love for visiting new places and sharing them with my friends & family. Teaming up with Jitin to develop a made in India social media app for the world is akin to a new journey for me and I am super excited to put India through Explurger on the global map."

Explurger founder and CEO Jitin Bhatia noted that humans are travellers and social beings & Explurger will help them discover real travel itineraries written by real travellers with real route maps, photos and guides. "Explurger is an indigenous app platform that facilitates this in a unique and intuitive way, rewarding users for their posts on their travel updates, triggering wanderlust in followers and spreading positivity among the online community."
