The travel app co-founded by Kevin Costner has been a huge hit
1 min read
Even the actor himself did not imagine that his request would reach a certain level.
The travel app created by Kevin Costner has raised $15.3 million in funding. In fact, the actor is one of the co-founders and is currently one of the largest contributors to the American app HearHere. The app was launched in 2020 during the Covid-19 pandemic.
The application aims to provide tips about the places closest to its users that may interest them, such as restaurants, museums or anything traditional in a particular place. Apparently, the application has become a kind of “fever”, conquering more than 100 thousand active users, which is an unusual fact for this type of application.
In addition, it is important to note that in its first round of “seed funding”, two months ago, HearHere, which has already been downloaded more than 400,000 times, raised $15.3 million. In addition, a survey conducted by the American website “The Vacationer” showed that 80% of American adults intend to go on a “road trip”, that is, car trips across the United States. Apparently, Kevin Costner didn’t even imagine that the app would be as successful as it is.
