Why QR codes, and why us?
The lost item waste is a huge issue. ‘Till now, not one company in the world has ever succeeded in eradicating this scourge. From young startups to big organizations, this issue is here waiting for a straight forward answer.
At FindR, we think that QR codes can be the solution to this problem: A kind of extra layer of “Insurance”.
QR code was invented by Mr. Masahiro Hara, engineer at Denso Wave, an automotive company, and the first functional purpose of the QR code system was to facilitate keeping track of the types and numbers of automobile parts. Thanks to Mr. Hara and Denso Wave (and the free use of their technology for standard purposes), FindR’s vision is now to extend the QR code’s original purpose, by delivering affordable and easy-to-use solutions to prevent misplaced or lost items in a smart and efficient way: at low cost, provided by human interconnexions.
How much impact can we have?
How many documents, cards, passports, driving licenses, smartphones, sunglasses, devices and tools of any genres are lost every days in the world?
The global waste caused by lost items (whether by individuals, companies, or organizations) amounts to billions of USD each year, and this is likely an underestimated figure. Over the past decade, many believed that the Internet of Things (IoT) would solve the lost-and-found challenge and reduce the waste associated with lost items through technology such as beacons, wearables, and nearables.
But it’s not.
So we came with the simple idea to help people find their lost items simply using QR codes coupled with a strong branding & message and create a network with Apps where any item finders can meets with their respective owners. FindR today aims to become the lost & found network which promotes kindness and honesty, helping people from all over the world to recover their items. It’s also a reminder of how kind people can be, if there’s an easy opportunity to help out.
How can you join the movement?
We are also looking forward to work hand by hand with retailers and brands willing to join FindR’s long term mission. FindR x Pros aims to enable all professionals to get closer to their clients, their guests or attendees, by protecting their purchases and belongings, or the products they distribute.
Last but not least our Partner program is dedicated to technical R&D in different areas such as opening our technical platform and API to third party developers. We are also looking for artists, designers, creative studios from all over the world willing to adhere to FindR’s concept and ready to give to FindR x Artists some impulse.
