Your 24/7 Tourist Concierge, Powered by Smart Kiosks.
HootBoard kiosks answer questions, recommend attractions, and boost local business visibility — all from beautifully branded, interactive displays placed across your destination.
From Overwhelmed Visitors to Thriving Local Tourism
HootBoard solves the real-world problems your destination faces — and brings digital clarity to physical spaces.
Tourists Don’t Know Where to Start
Visitors often arrive with no plan. Instead of relying on brochures or vague maps, HootBoard kiosks display an interactive guide to nearby attractions, restaurants, and events. With category filters, location pins, and QR handoffs, tourists find what they need — and head there instantly.
Local Businesses Get Lost in the Noise
Big-name chains dominate search results, while hidden gems miss out. Our local listings app lets you spotlight small businesses with visuals, offers, and even sponsored placements — helping them get discovered by foot traffic, not just Google.
Events & Happenings Go Unnoticed
Sync calendars from Google or Eventbrite and let kiosks automatically display what’s happening nearby — from parades to markets to exhibits. Zero manual effort. Real-time visibility.
Your Team Can’t Be Everywhere
Your staff is busy. HootBoard kiosks act as self-service concierges. Answer FAQs, show alerts, post weather updates, and highlight activities — all from a central dashboard that controls every kiosk across town.
You Need to Engage, Not Just Inform
Make visits memorable. Our engagement suite includes a selfie app, spin-the-wheel games, trivia, and more. They not only entertain but boost dwell time and social shares.
You Can’t Update Screens Manually Every Day
With 1000+ integrations, your kiosks stay updated automatically. Sync content from your CMS, Instagram, TripAdvisor, or Google Reviews to keep everything fresh — no daily effort needed.
Tourism Teams Love It Because It Just Works
From setup to scaling, HootBoard is built for non-technical teams that need reliable, hands-off tools to run smarter public engagement.
Set It and Forget It
Automate updates with calendar syncs, scheduling tools, and media integrations. No need to manually push content to every screen.
Control by Location, Team, or District
Whether you run one welcome center or oversee ten kiosks across a region, you can assign admin access by geography or department. Everyone sees only what they need.
Get Clear Answers, Not Gut Feelings
No more guessing which listings or events matter. HootBoard tells you what visitors tap, where they linger, and what they ignore — so you can double down on what works.
Always On, Always Supported
Cloud-based software that runs on secure hardware, with 24/7 support by real humans. No IT team needed.
Deploy in Minutes, Not Weeks
Plug in. Power on. Log in. Your kiosk is live — preloaded with your content and ready to guide visitors.
What Destination Leaders Are Saying
HootBoard has become our go-to platform for connecting with visitors downtown. It’s like having a 24/7 concierge that promotes events, answers questions, and helps tourists feel welcome.
