Tabimado (旅窓 — "travel window") is built for people visiting Japan who want one clear window into what's happening around them: local news, currency, and a knowledgeable AI concierge that answers questions in their own language. The guides on this page are the same kind of practical, ground-level information the app is built around — the full app is currently in private testing, with a wider release planned as it's refined.
