AI agent for tour guides
New Route Scouting Agent
Turn a first visit into a tested route that works for a real group.
What it does
A new route that looks good on a map may have steep hills, closed paths, no toilets or too little time. When the guide visits a new route, this agent maps the stops and times the walking legs from the guide's notes and location data. It checks access, toilets, shade, seating, opening hours and crowd times. It lists problems and drafts a revised version that fixes them, then checks it again against the same criteria. The guide approves the final route. Edge case: a stop is closed on Mondays and the tour runs on Monday, so the agent swaps the order or the stop.
How it works
Follow the arrows from top to bottom. The orange dashed arrow is the loop: when a check fails, the agent goes back and tries again.
