The Mission

Tourism infrastructure should empower communities, not extract from them.

HyprMaps provides white-label platform technology to destinations worldwide— helping them own their tourism narrative without commissions, without vendor lock-in, without selling out to big tech.

Why This Exists

After visiting tourist destinations across India, a pattern became clear: Google Maps had outdated information. OTA platforms charged local businesses significant commissions. The best recommendations came from conversations with locals—hyperlocal knowledge no algorithm captured.

One question kept surfacing: Why don't tourist destinations have infrastructure that serves their communities instead of Silicon Valley shareholders?

That question became HyprMaps.

The Model

HyprMaps is B2G SaaS. We license platform technology to tourism boards and destination management organizations, not transaction fees from businesses.

Tourism boards customize with their branding, train local moderators, and decide their own monetization strategy. We provide technology and ongoing support. They own operations, relationships, and data.

We also operate consumer instances (starting with Varkala) at hyprmaps.com—both as live demonstrations for government pitches and as sustainable revenue while closing enterprise contracts.

Same technology platform, dual revenue streams, de-risked business model.
