Fiz is a UK startup offering a social discovery app for iOS and Android that helps users find places based on activities and leisure categories. The app consolidates data from online sources and a user-generated database to provide maps, directions, phone numbers, reviews, photos, weather, tweets, UK traffic updates and other place-related information. Users can browse by categories such as Fun & Leisure, Nature & Outdoors, Food & Drink, Faith & Spirit, Health & Wellbeing, Sport & Fitness and Art & Culture, and can add or rate places, upload photos, bookmark favorites and add personal notes. Fiz pulls tips from Foursquare and supports Foursquare check-ins, and contributors earn karma points that the company says will eventually convert into real-world rewards for top contributors. The app is free; potential future revenue models mentioned include content syndication, affiliate marketing and partner tools such as white‑labelling. The company says the recently closed seed funding will be used to further develop the platform and build its community.
