While most social media keeps you scrolling endlessly, Jitin Bhatia, Founder and CEO of Explurger, built a platform that pushes you to step out and explore. His travel-first social app rewards real-world experiences, not screen time. With AI-powered travelogues and gamified journey tracking, Explurger is changing how we connect in the digital age.
The idea sparked during the pandemic, when the world stood still. A lifelong explorer, Jitin dreamed of rekindling the spirit of wanderlust that had faded when the world stopped moving. What started as a small digital space for travelers soon became a global movement. Today, 18M+ explorers across 75 countries are part of Explurger’s community. Users share their trips, tick off bucket list adventures, celebrate milestones, and earn rewards along the way - making every journey purposeful, memorable, and truly unforgettable.
