Catch the rumor.
Ship the
correction.
Puentes is a civic response studio for creators, educators, and community organizers. It helps teams verify fast-moving claims, package the evidence, and ship source-linked responses people can trust and reuse.
why this matters
A rumor can move through a classroom, a campus, or a community chat in minutes. The correction has to be clear, credible, and ready to resend.
Why Puentes
Built for the channels
where civic confusion
actually spreads.
Not a fact-check archive. Not a back-office dashboard. Puentes is a response tool for feeds, group chats, classrooms, and community spaces, with proof visible from intake to final handoff.

Who it is for
Three lanes. One source of truth.
The same verified brief can power a creator post, a classroom discussion, or a community message. The delivery changes; the record stays intact.

Build a postable correction without recycling the rumor.
Puentes turns one verified brief into hooks, scene beats, captions, and pinned comments for short-form video and carousel explainers.
Best move
Open with the correction, show the receipt early, and make the truth easier to repost than the original claim.
Built for
Independent creators, youth media teams, and civic explainers.
Product demo
From raw claim to response pack.
Pick a sample claim and switch the audience. Puentes keeps the evidence fixed while the response changes for creators, classrooms, and communities.
Incoming claim
A voice note says polling places near campus changed overnight and students now need a second ID.
Live response preview
That viral voice note is not an official update, and campus voting rules did not change.
The confusion came from a volunteer memo, not from the election office. The safest thing to repost is the county update plus the campus FAQ.
Verified truth
The campus polling location did not change. The confusion came from a volunteer training note about backup verification.
Why it travels
Audio feels intimate and urgent, so people forward it before checking whether it came from an official source.
Source ladder
Proof people can inspect.
Puentes makes the proof legible. Instead of dropping a pile of links, it shows what each source confirms, clarifies, or still leaves unresolved.
official update
election office
The county election office confirms the polling site and accepted IDs are unchanged for the current election.
Claim intake
Capture the original screenshot, clip, or voice note instead of rewriting the rumor from memory.
Evidence view
Show what each source confirms, clarifies, or still leaves unresolved.
Role-based outputs
Turn one verified brief into creator, classroom, and community versions of the same response.
Review gate
Keep every response source-linked and checked before it is sent, posted, or taught.
Workflow
A response workflow teams can actually run.
Capture the claim, verify the record, shape the response for the right audience, and review it before it goes back into the conversation.
01
Capture the claim
Start with the exact screenshot, clip, or voice note people are already circulating.
02
Verify the record
Pull together official sources, reporting, and context so the response can hold up.
03
Adapt for the audience
Turn one verified brief into creator copy, classroom material, or a community response.
04
Review before sharing
Check tone, citations, and risk before anything gets posted, forwarded, or taught.
What Puentes produces
One verified brief.
Multiple ways to brief, post, and teach.
The same evidence base can become a creator script, a classroom activity, and a community message without losing the source trail.
Sample creator cut
“That clip leaves out the vote where the proposal fails.”
01
Verification brief
A concise brief with the claim, the findings, the open questions, and the sources behind each point.
02
Creator package
A hook, outline, caption, and pinned comment with citation notes for video and carousel formats.
03
Community + classroom pack
Discussion prompts, source comparisons, share text, and facilitation notes for workshops, classrooms, and organizers.
The best correction is one people can understand, trust, and put back into the conversation.
Why it matters
Help the correction travel farther than the rumor.
Puentes gives trusted messengers something they can stand behind: verified, audience-aware, and ready to reuse across feeds, classrooms, and communities.
