Read the whole script

40,000 ft. From forty thousand feet, Magallanes is a ribbon of towns along the Strait: Puerto Natales, Porvenir, Puerto Williams. And in the middle, Punta Arenas. A port at the end of the world, with thousands of businesses, and visitors arriving by sea and by air.

Alone. Down on the street, every business works alone. A visitor steps off the ship and doesn’t know where to go. Big global platforms take the bookings, and a slice of every sale leaves the region.

One map. puq.city puts the whole city on one map. Every business gets its own page, more than two thousand four hundred so far, in four languages, on a map anyone can open from a QR code.

One voice. Then the city gets a voice. The Pilot is an AI guide that answers visitors in their own language, and sends them to local businesses whose owners have told it, in their own words, what they offer.

One network. Next, businesses work together. A hotel sends a guest to a bike rental, a café recommends a tour. Each referral is tracked by link and QR code, and the business that sent the customer earns a commission. And the network runs across the whole region, from Torres del Paine to Puerto Williams.

One currency. And the money stays here. PUQ, the city’s own token, is live on Ethereum, with one hundred million coins minted. Soon, visitors will pay with digital dollars, USDC, and businesses will receive PUQ to spend with each other across Magallanes.

Together. One map. One voice. One network. One local currency. That’s puq.city: a business network for Magallanes alone, built with new tools, for the people who live here. Your business belongs on the map.

The descent

The same vision, one layer at a time: from the whole region down to a visitor’s phone.

    The whole region, connected

    Growing

    A network for one region: from Torres del Paine and Puerto Natales to Porvenir, Cerro Sombrero, Cameron and Puerto Williams, and the gateway to Antarctica. A lodge in Natales sends guests to a café in Punta Arenas; a tour in Porvenir sends them to a hotel downtown. It starts in Punta Arenas and grows out to every commune.
