Gio
A camera-first travel companion for Florence and Rome. Point your phone at a confusing bill, menu, ticket, or ZTL sign — Gio, a Florentine local, tells you what it really means and what to watch for.
An anti-scam app that occasionally scams you is worthless. So Gio is built to be right or to stay quiet: every number, every warning, traced back to verified data or a human-checked reference card.
Gio reads the receipt, not just the words. Bills, menus, tickets, parking, ZTL signs — it pulls the line items, does the math, and tells you plainly whether the total adds up. The answer always arrives in the same four fields: what it says, what it means, what to do, and what to watch out for.
The persona is the product. Gio is a calm Florentine insider — warm, dry, specific — telling you what he'd tell a friend, prohibition first. On a ZTL sign that means the €100 mistake gets stated before any nuance.
And when the photo is unclear, Gio asks for a retake instead of inventing an answer. Refusal is a feature: “yes, drive into the ZTL” is exactly the sentence an anti-scam app can never afford to get wrong.
Accuracy is the product.
That discipline is the whole company, expressed in one app. Correct beats clever — we'd rather say “retake that” than hand you a confident wrong answer in a place where being wrong costs real money.
