# About GooseChase\n\nGooseChase is a rapidly growing, fully remote web and mobile platform for creating and facilitating scavenger hunts. Through our website, organizers create custom "hunts" for anything from onboarding new employees, touring museums, engaging at festivals, educating students and more! Participants can compete as teams or individuals to submit photo, video, text or GPS based submissions through our native Android and iOS apps.\n\nThe key aspects of our platform are:\n\n* Game Manager (Web): The game manager is where game organizers create and manage their scavenger hunt games. We have an incredible number of different use cases for our platform, with various levels of organizer experience, meaning this is a crucial area for us to get right!\n* iOS & Android Apps: When someone participates in a GooseChase, they do so using our native mobile applications. The primary components here are finding & joining the right game, completing the missions and staying up to date & engaged in the game via activity feeds, leaderboards, and announcements & bonuses from the game organizer. People can get very competitive when playing, so creating a seamless experience that doesnโt get in the way makes a big difference.\n\nBecause of the flexibility and ease-of-use of our product, we have successfully powered game types ranging from festival-wide competitions, with thousands of dollars in prizes, to K-12 classroom lessons on government types, featuring gummy bears to help demonstrate the differences between a dictatorship and a democracy! \n\nSeeing the different ways the product can be used, and the joy it creates in those who participate is an incredibly rewarding experience & is something weโd love to share with you as well!
