The shortest way between you and your desires
It’s five o’clock on a Saturday. You would like to share a drink with someone but you don’t know the neighborhood.
What can you do?
Open a guidebook and risk getting lost in the accumulation of the 37 bars located in a 100-meter perimeter around you?
Fetch your map and run after the street-signs?
What about if you just wanted to find a place that fits your current mood?

KITSUN in 3 steps:
1/ Ask for the moon
Kistun is a Portable Urban Navigator, a sensitive interface, terribly useful to find what you dared not try and find anymore. On your mobile, you see the moon and its satellites embodying the topics you are obsessed with. They show you the way. Let yourself be surprised and discover the best out of your town, the town you like, the town that resembles you.
2/ Follow the light
You are in an open state of mind, you follow the light, you visit a town built from and around your main interests. The places that will move you appear and attract you by enlightening KISTUN’s moon. The moon is guiding you. You sail through this town from one place to another, following the light’s origin, and you end up discovering places so close and so right for you but that you were nonetheless unaware of.
3/ Share your emotions
Through the same interface, it’s your turn to share your discoveries by transmitting your own feeling. Thus, together, we draw a sensitive map of this town and we travel all over it with our compass made of desires, in order to finally find what we had so long been looking for.
4/ How does it work?
A personalized recommendation engine.
It’s more than a “search engine”, it’s a “find engine”: I don’t look for it anymore, I find it!
Even better than a compass, KITSUN has replaced magnetic fields by thematic fields. This Urban Navigator lets you explore them. Soon, your mobile alone will get to know you and your tastes better. As any good friend would, he will guide you towards the themes that you have chosen in only a few clicks and towards the best choices among those themes.
5/ Who is using KITSUN?
Tourists and citizens of course, but also retailers, tourist guides, culture officials, teachers, urban planners… KITSUN allows to create different routes for these different types of public and also to perceive their feedback on their experience and discoveries.
