TriedBy

TriedBy is a short-video feed with one difference: everything in every video is tagged, and every tag has a rating from one to ten. WATCH. EVERYTHING IS TAGGED. Real people doing real things — and every place, product, and experience in the video is a tag, right on screen. No "where was that?" No "drop the link." EVERY TAG HAS A RATING. One to ten, from the person who tried it. Five and up is worth it. A solid rating is their word. An outlined rating is our read of the post until they confirm it — so nothing is ever unrated. SAVE IT, SHOP IT, BOOK IT. Tap a tag and it lands on your Try List. Buy the product or book the place right there, with credit going to the person who showed you. GO DO IT. THEN RATE IT. Check in when you're there, try it for real, and give it your own number. Every try earns points, stamps, and medals. Your rating joins the guide for the next person. FOLLOW PEOPLE WHO'VE ACTUALLY TRIED IT. Every creator has a TriedBy guide: everything they've recommended, rated, sortable by rating, place, price, and category, and shoppable in place. Browse it as a list, a grid, or a map. BUILT FOR DOING, NOT SCROLLING. Your Try List keeps score. Themed lists give you whole adventures to work through. Your passport fills with the countries and cities you've checked in from. Free to download.
