Go Overseas operates a centralized, community-driven platform that catalogs volunteer, study, and teaching abroad programs and features ratings and reviews. The site aggregates options from around the world, helping users explore and compare programs and plan international experiences. Its primary audience is people seeking opportunities to study, volunteer, or teach overseas, who rely on peer insights to inform their choices. The company sits in the international affairs landscape by facilitating access to global education and service opportunities through this platform. The platform grew from an idea to consolidate information into a broad community resource. Based in Oakland, California, the company operates with a small to mid-sized team. In 2023, Go Overseas hosted the USA Gap Year Fairs, an in-person event series that connects students with gap-year opportunities abroad.
