Question 1

What is INQUEST

Accepted Answer

INQUEST turns real places into a living map of quests. People discover venues, events and good deeds nearby, show up in person, confirm the visit with QR, NFC, location or a photo, and build a reputation in their city. Tagline: "Not a game. Life." Based in Dubai, UAE. Website: ainquest.com.

Question 2

What is AINQUEST

Accepted Answer

AINQUEST is the AI layer of INQUEST. It has three modules: AINQUEST MAP (a living map of quests), AINQUEST (a voice guide to everyday life in the real world) and AINQUEST BUSINESS (visibility for AI — a voice assistant that keeps a business's information accurate so people and AI assistants can find it).

Question 3

AINQUEST MAP status

Accepted Answer

AINQUEST MAP is in live beta as a web app and Telegram Mini App: interactive city map, venue cards, quest submissions, EN / RU / AR interface. Founder's estimate of readiness: about 70%. Next milestone: an invite-only pilot with the first venues in Dubai.

Question 4

AINQUEST voice guide status

Accepted Answer

The AINQUEST voice guide is in development. It will answer by voice with one clear answer, plan routes through places on the map, remember preferences only with consent, and always show its sources. Founder's estimate of readiness: about 25%. Next milestone: first public preview for Early Birds.

Question 5

AINQUEST BUSINESS status

Accepted Answer

AINQUEST BUSINESS is at the design and prototype stage. A business talks to it like a manager (hours, menu, events, offers); it publishes structured data AI assistants can read, enables one-tap approvals for quests and guest check-ins, and reports visits that actually happened. Founder's estimate of readiness: about 15%. Next milestone: onboarding the first pilot venues.

Question 6

How it works

Accepted Answer

Four steps: Discover — open the map or ask AINQUEST what is worth your time nearby. Show up — visit the place or join the event. Confirm — one tap with QR, NFC, location or a photo; the venue approves in one click. Grow — reputation and streaks build a record of where you have truly been.

Question 7

XP, rewards and money

Accepted Answer

XP and reputation are in-product counters of real-world presence. They have no monetary value and cannot be withdrawn, exchanged, traded or transferred. INQUEST is not a crypto project: there are no tokens, coins, NFTs or wallets. Money moves the classic way: bank acquiring, contracts with partners, invoices and VAT; creators are paid for work under a services agreement.

Question 8

Pilot in Dubai

Accepted Answer

INQUEST is opening a small, invite-only pilot in Dubai. There are three ways in: Creators (bloggers and content creators), Business (cafés, venues, retail, organisers) and Early Birds (first testers). Each application takes under a minute on ainquest.com — contact by email or phone; creators may add social profiles or skip that step.

Question 9

For creators and bloggers

Accepted Answer

Creators tell honest stories about real places. Collaborations run under a clear services agreement, with classic payment for the work. Apply on ainquest.com → Pilot → Creators.

Question 10

For businesses and venues

Accepted Answer

Venues get found by guests nearby and by the AI assistants guests ask, approve visits in one click and see reports of real visits. Apply on ainquest.com → Pilot → Business, or write to hello@ainquest.com.

Question 11

For investors

Accepted Answer

INQUEST is founder-led and based in Dubai. We grow venue by venue, with local rules respected from day one: classic payments, clear agreements, and no speculative mechanics.

Question 12

Founder and team

Accepted Answer

INQUEST was founded by Dimitrii Lagutin, who designs and builds the product end to end — from the map engine to the AI layer — with a small circle of advisors on technology, regional compliance and partnerships.

Question 13

Contacts

Accepted Answer

General questions and the pilot: hello@ainquest.com. Investors and press: founder@ainquest.com. Founder directly: dmitriy@ainquest.com.

Question 14

Privacy

Accepted Answer

ainquest.com uses no cookies, analytics or trackers. Form details are used only to reply, kept up to 12 months, and deleted on request via hello@ainquest.com.

Question 15

Region and legal approach

Accepted Answer

The focus region is the UAE and the wider MENA region. Each new market opens only after legal checks: company presence, licences, tax, personal data, advertising rules and rules for promotional mechanics. When in doubt, INQUEST chooses "legal" over "fast".

Question 16

Partners

Accepted Answer

INQUEST does not announce partners before agreements are signed. Venues shown in demos are demonstrations, not partners.

Question 17

Inqui's voice

Accepted Answer

Inqui's voice is in development. Inqui's character is already designed — a curious, warm and quietly confident fox — and the team is now looking for the right person to voice it. The voice is meant to be a natural continuation of the project. For now Inqui answers in text. Voice artists who would like to be considered can write to hello@ainquest.com.

Question 18

About Inqui

Accepted Answer

Inqui is the fox of INQUEST and the assistant on ainquest.com. Inqui answers only from the INQUEST library, keeps confidential matters for a personal conversation with the founder, and learns from anonymous questions: unanswered questions are reviewed by the team and added to the library.
