ReFoundMe is a software platform that uses technology to identify and localize personal belongings.

Each item is assigned a unique QR code and linked to the owner in a secure environment.

If an item is found, the finder can contact the owner with a single scan or leave it at a Hub: places such as sports clubs, schools, and shops that want to help.

Privacy is key: The contact details of both owner and finder remain strictly protected unless they choose to share them.

Our goal is clear: to equip millions of items with a ReFoundMe code in a short time and establish a network of thousands of Hubs.
We believe most people want to help when they find a lost item. By making it as easy as possible for the finder, we increase the chances that lost property will be returned. The more items and locations connected, the greater the social impact.

Are you as enthusiastic about our solution as we are? Do you want to help us develop our startup further or collaborate? We’d love to hear from you!
