Digital display tools for the cultural sector

Through the unified Pladia experience management system, cultural institutions can easily create and publish Digital Labels, Interactive Kiosks, Digital Signage, and more.

The challenge of disconnected tools

Museums and galleries know the challenge: piecing together different solutions for mobile guides, digital labels, and interactive displays.

The result? Disconnected experiences that don’t fully engage visitors, and great ideas stuck waiting for IT support or external vendors.

You can take a different approach.

Unified experience management

With Pladia, you don’t need separate systems for every screen. Our unified platform lets you manage digital labels, mobile wayfinding, and interactive displays from one place.
