About GetBy

In 2016, Devin and Jason were staying in Thailand for a couple months. They researched visas and vaccinations, housing and restaurants. Useful things and useless things. When they landed on the ground, they realized they had researched others’ experiences, not their own.

There had to be a better way. Somewhere among all the language learning apps, travel blogs, and the guide books, we thought there was a place for a small, simple app that could do the one thing you need to do while visiting a country for the first time … equip you just enough to travel with the least resistance.

Travel is a custom experience and you will have your own story. GetBy is a collection of tips, tools, and news to help you do it. Some key phrases, real-time exchange rates, checklists, and more to use on-the-go.

At GetBy we want to take the pain out of the process of travel. Getting there may be half the fun, but it is often nearly all of the hassle. Through our apps and content, we share tools and tips that we have learned the hard way about how to travel without the hassle.
