FoundWall

INV-02 · Lost & found network

Live
foundwall.com (opens in a new tab)

A Canada-first recovery network for lost, stolen and found property: bikes, pets, robot mowers and drones. Web platform live; iOS and Android apps in public beta (TestFlight, Google Play testing).

FoundWall public recovery board: notice cards with status bands (stolen, lost, found), area-level locations and recognition details. (open full-size screenshot)

Problem

Lost-and-found reports are scattered across social posts, police forms and classified sites, and a phone photo can carry the owner’s home location in its metadata.

Solution

One public board with structured reports, private messaging between owner and finder, and privacy-first media handling: every photo is quarantined, stripped of location data and re-encoded before anyone sees it.
