Why Qoqnuz
Qoqnuz brings Chitrali heritage to digital life. Remote Chitral still relied on paper, cassettes, and VCRs while diaspora communities lacked access to their music and culture — I built Qoqnuz to close that gap.
Product
A heritage catalogue with creators, Qoqnuz Sessions, and Qoqnuz Podcasts — designed and built bootstrapped with partners Waqar Ahmed and Wahid Khan. Listen at https://app.qoqnuz.com
Traction
Listeners across 11+ countries; 5K+ monthly listeners and 7K+ songs streamed per month when last verified. More initiatives are in progress — treat future roadmap as upcoming unless verified in Studio.
Do not say
Do not describe Qoqnuz as social commerce or a creator marketplace — it is a heritage music and culture platform. Do not invent funding rounds or download totals beyond verified stats.
