About Anchr

Anchr is creating a platform for location services that allows the end-user to find information and services tied to a location in the easiest possible way. Have you ever booked a lunch with a colleague, but felt unsure of where to go? Maybe you want to plan a lunch and a visit to a museum prior to a weekend trip you are planning. There are many tools available, alone they stand incomplete, but together they create enormous value and empower the end-user by allowing search in a combined huge dataset that Anchr makes available to them. Today's location services demand the end-user to know which services to use and the end-user needs to download several location services in order to receive all the information and offers. Anchr is creating an ecosystem that makes location apps and app data searchable on one single platform. We are also creating a new interface to enable interaction with location data and to steer the end-user to the correct information, offers and services, as seamlessly as possible. Anchr is a search engine for location information and services.
