Geo-Anchored Story Markers
Record a story—video or audio—and permanently attach it to a physical location.
Locations gain a layered timeline of community stories, official histories, and cultural narratives.
Proximity Notifications
When users approach a story location, the app notifies them instantly.
“A story has been recorded here.”
Three-Moderator Approval System
To maintain authenticity and safety, every new story must be approved by three community moderators before going live.
This prevents trolling, pranks, and misinformation.
Believability Scale (1–10)
Users rate how plausible or credible a story feels.
Scores create transparency without silencing folklore, local legends, or Indigenous oral traditions.
Story Verification System
Anyone who has heard or researched the story can press Verify.
Some verifications count more:
- Local historians
- Indigenous elders
- Archivists
- Museum officials
- Municipality accounts
- Long-time locals
This forms Chronicleer’s knowledge-weighted trust network.
Text-Only Comments
Users can discuss factual corrections, share memories, debate interpretations, or expand on details without the noise of general social media.
Contributor Tiers & Badges
Chronicleer recognizes expertise with organic, trust-building tiers:
- Wayfinder – new explorers
- Chronicler – consistent contributors
- Historian – high-credibility stories
- Local Elder – regionally trusted
- Master Archivist – municipal or academic authority
- Culture Bearer – Indigenous or lineage-verified contributors
These help users immediately identify trusted voices.
