Henry's the screen-free guide you talk to right in front of the art. He creates your tours, shares the real stories behind what you're looking at, and you'll be among the first to try him.
No screen, no scanning, no tour group. You wear your earbuds, ask whatever you wonder, and Henry answers — about the real painting right in front of you.
Stand in front of any artwork and wonder aloud — "who is she?", "why all the gold?" — and Henry answers out loud, beside you. No menus, no track numbers, no scanning. Just you, the art, and a voice that knows it.
"Stay a moment. Really look." Henry takes your eye by the hand and walks it across the canvas — the detail you'd have strolled straight past, the real reason that gold leaf is there. And a painting you'd have given four seconds suddenly won't let you go.
Talk to Henry in your own language, and he says the artists' names the way they're meant to sound. Twenty minutes or two hours, playful or deep — never a different Henry, just one who fits the moment.
This is an early beta, and we'd rather say so than pretend otherwise. Sometimes Henry needs a moment to think. Now and then he'll misunderstand you, or we'll take him back to the workshop for a day to fix something.
If a rough edge would spoil your visit, this probably isn't the right moment — and that's completely okay. But if being early excites you, and you're glad to help something good become great, you're exactly who we hope to meet. All we ask: take Henry to a real museum, and tell us the truth — what moved you, what fell flat, what broke.
You won't just be testing an app. You'll help shape who Henry becomes.
Space is genuinely limited. We hand-pick testers in small waves — so we can look after each person properly and actually read every piece of feedback.
A "not just yet" usually means the wave is full, or Henry's back in the workshop — we open new waves often and will keep you in mind. He already knows his way around more than 30 of Europe's great collections, with more on the way.
