Drive Stories

We’re looking for a Head of Growth for Drive Stories! Drive Stories turns road trips into immersive storytelling experiences — an iOS app that helps travelers discover the history, culture, and hidden narratives around them while they’re on the move. Now we’re ready to scale. We're looking for someone who doesn’t just want to “manage social media,” but wants to help build and evangelize a travel platform from the ground up. This is not a corporate marketing role. This is ownership. You might be a fit if you: - Are a fulltime road trip, vanlife, or travel influencer - Have grown a consumer app, media brand, or creator channel before - Think in growth loops (content → community → referrals → retention) - Understand App Store dynamics and organic acquisition - Love travel, exploration, and storytelling - Want real responsibility and meaningful upside What you’d own: - Social and content strategy - Creator and travel partnerships - Community building - Organic growth experiments - Potential paid acquisition testing - Turning users into advocates Compensation: Flexible depending on profile — salary + performance-based structure. We want someone incentivized to grow this like it’s their own. Location: Flexible (UK or remote preferred) Stage: Early, with strong product foundation and real momentum. We're winning awards and getting momentum. We need someone to amplify, elevant and build a signficiant global community. We are in 175 app stores across the world and support 62 languages. If you’re interested — or know someone who is — DM me directly. Let’s build something culturally meaningful for travelers. Thank you!

Some of the best products come from pure curiosity. After years of travelling the world and road-tripping through new places, Thomas Moeller kept wondering about the stories behind the locations he was passing through. That curiosity became Drive Stories a location-based audio app that turns road trips into interactive history lessons. Built through ZeroSixty Design, the London design studio Thomas co-founded with Kalpesh R. (Kalpesh Rathod) the app delivers on-demand audio stories based on your exact location, now live in 62 languages across 175 countries and already picking up major award recognition. It’s a reminder that passion projects, when paired with strong partnerships and great design, can scale far beyond the original idea. 👉 Read the full story behind Drive Stories and the founders who built it on Founder Insights: https://lnkd.in/dsz6t8kN #FounderStory #ProductDesign #StartupJourney #TravelTech #DesignStudio

It's holiday road trip time! For all those visits to family and road trips for the holidays, give Drive Stories a try along the way to unlock the great stories along your journey. Drive Stories pinpoints your exact location and instantly plays curated factual audio stories about nearby places - from hidden landmarks to art, literature, architecture, nature, and history. With one tap, you can explore your surroundings through rich storytelling rather than screens or guidebooks. Inspired by years of global travel, I wanted to bring back the romance of the road trip - the feeling of connection with the landscape and its stories. The experience is simple but powerful: no searching, no scrolling - just press play and listen as the world around you comes alive. Since launch, Drive Stories has already received early recognition including a Fast Company Innovation Award (2025), ODA Winner, and Webby Nominee (2026). The app is now live in 175 countries and 62 languages, and early conversations are underway with several car manufacturers and potential partners.

Excited to share that Drive Stories has been recognized at the Fast Company 2025 Innovation by Design Awards! Drive Stories is a passionate return to the open road and the driving experience, helping unlock location stories from all around the world - allowing us to create enjoyable moments of open-road freedom and a leading example of how technology can help unlock knowledge and information in an exciting new way. The idea for the app was inspired by traveling in various locations around the world and wondering about the story of the places we were driving through. Maybe we saw old historical towns and wondered about it's past and the people that came from it, or saw deserted factories and wondered, 'what type of industry was here in the past?', or drove through beautiful natural landscapes and thought 'what types of wildlife are in those hills?', or saw amazing buildings in a new city and asked 'I wonder about the architectural history and influence here?'. The list goes on. What we found is that information on locations (specifically information about cities, villages, towns, etc) around the world IS available, but the way to tap into it is cumbersome, complicated, un-curated and requires sifting through hundreds of confusing Google search results. It's simply not easily accessible while driving, as a passenger, or even walking around a city. We're done with the head-down-in-phone thing while the world passes us by. We want to be present, windows down, music on, enjoying (and learning) about what's around us. The world is outside our window, and we want to know about it. What we've created with Drive Stories is a hyper-easy, on-demand and intuitive interface to access and enjoy all of this phenomenal data in an incredibly easy way : just hit 'play' and drive and listen. It's that easy. The result: one of the world’s most robust and comprehensive location-information platforms available on the market #FCDesignAwards #drivestories #zerosixty

We're pleased to announce Drive Stories received an award from Online Design Awards in the UI/UX Design category. The growing positive response, engagement and pre-launch support we're getting for the platform is exciting and we can't wait to launch the platform in early September, stay tuned! 🚀 #drivestories #zerosixty #travelapp #roadtrip #ai #productlaunch
