Tellingstones

Tellingstones is a system designed to welcome tourists and visitors, dedicated to Destination operators and content creators, and includes an App and a sophisticated back-end platform.

The TELLINGSTONES APP is a guide that works everywhere and that can make us appreciate even places apparently devoid of elements of interest.

Angles that we don't notice or that strike us but would remain incomprehensible can become memorable, thanks to the magic of a narrative.

With Tellingstones, the spirit of a place is revealed through stories, i.e. tales that can relate to real people, historical or imaginary and universally known facts.

The stories that Tellingstones tells us tell us the curiosities and sometimes the heartbreaking beauty of places hidden from view but close to us at that moment, which we ignored and therefore would never have sought.

The contents are generated by the Content Creators (local operators, residents, visitors, bloggers and storytellers), who create them and publish them on the dedicated Platform, as with a social network.

The Content Creator is an active user of a place of which he feels the protagonist, who wants to share through his stories, contributing to a collective story that is constantly updated, with always new voices and new contents.

With Tellingstones, content creators help us discover destinations and stays we would never have looked for, because we didn't know they existed, under the banner of authenticity, originality, environmental and social sustainability, and quality, often overshadowed by the proximity of major attractors and the communicative mainstream of international agencies.

With Tellingstones, every operator or content creator can open multiple thematic channels, publishing stories that can be enriched with multimedia content and Augmented Reality.

TERRITORIAL DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS

Tellingstones offers numerous tools to support communities working on spatial development projects.

It is possible to publish geo-referenced contents that indicate places of interest, represented on the Tellingstones App as actionable icons that refer to in-depth information sheets,

generate proximity notifications to report hidden content and instant notifications to reach people regardless of their location,

publish and promote events, manage reservations and issue tickets, which can be purchased and paid for directly from the App.

It is possible to create promotions and discounts at local shops,

publish itineraries to do on foot or by bicycle, indicating the difficulty and duration of the route, places to rest, refreshment and overnight stays, archaeological sites, of historical, artistic and landscape interest,

collect donations, launch initiatives,

discover the place you are visiting through a Game, in presence, virtually, or in a mixed mode, within one of the most innovative metaverses.

The goal is to generate value for the local area and promote sustainable development, starting with the creation of an attractive and welcoming digital environment.
