[IS] The right guide for every tour
[IS] Stop scrolling through contact lists and hoping someone is available. The matching algorithm scores every guide on qualifications, availability, and expertise, then ranks them for your specific tour.

3-layer scoring
Guide Pool
[IS] Three layers, one ranked list
[IS] Finding the right guide isn't just about who's free. It's about who speaks the right languages, holds the right certifications, is actually available on your dates, and fits the guide role you need. The algorithm evaluates all of it.
- [IS] Qualification gate[IS] Languages, certifications, guide role, availability, and duration fit. The algorithm scores these dimensions and penalizes hard mismatches. If a guide doesn't speak the required language, their score drops sharply.
- [IS] Preference context[IS] Activity types, regions, and group types are shown alongside the score so you can see the full picture. A guide who scores 90% on qualifications but has never worked your region is still worth considering.
- [IS] Expertise depth[IS] Glacier guiding is different from city walking tours. Subject-area expertise and tour-type depth are flagged separately so you can factor specialization into your staffing and rate decisions.
