Wheel the World operates a travel-technology platform that aggregates and verifies detailed accessibility information for hotels, tours, and transportation services. Its core product pairs booking tools with a proprietary database covering more than 8,000 travel services across 150+ global destinations, allowing wheelchair users and other travelers with disabilities to reserve accommodations that genuinely meet their needs. The company’s Accessibility Verified program audits properties on-site to capture structured data points such as doorway widths, bed heights, and bathroom configurations. With fresh Series A capital, management plans to expand this verification program throughout the United States and Europe while embedding AI to accelerate data capture, validation, and distribution. Ultimately the team aims to make accessibility data as standard in travel as pricing and availability. Including the latest infusion, Wheel the World has secured $11 million in Series A financing to fund these initiatives.
