Vistity has grown into a solution for downtowns, districts and destinations around the world— but it started as a very special project for one great city: Los Angeles.
Our story
During the onset of COVID-19, the Los Angeles Downtown Center BID asked us to help rethink their economic development strategy, which previously focused on in-person tours. While we knew a virtual tour would be the best option, we found that none of the available platforms provided the vibrant, immersive experience of a live visit. We’re designers at our core, and we know that creating a beautiful, simple, modern user experience would be a total game changer. And it seems like we were right.
Before Vistity, the best we could build was based on fuzzy satellite images, unreliable street views, and cumbersome content management. It was clear that existing virtual tour software was missing a huge opportunity. So we created a better platform to bring the real world online.
With an aesthetically driven interface and intuitive UX, an easy to use content management system, and utilizing custom drone imagery, Vistity is redefining the possibilities for immersive, interactive virtual tours of places. Since the first Vistity tour won the IDA Pinnacle award in 2021, Vistity has been adopted by major destinations across the United States and Europe. New tours are launching every month — will your city be next?
