I built a simple website to help people recover lost items
Last month I lost my phone.
I checked everywhere — chai stalls, guards, WhatsApp groups, friends… nothing worked.
What surprised me was how messy the whole process is. There’s no single place where people can just post lost or found items and connect.
So I built a small platform called Lost & Found.
The idea is simple:
- If you lose something → post it
- If you find something → post it
- People can browse and connect directly
- No complicated steps, just quick reporting
It’s made for:
- college students
- travelers
- metro commuters
- office workers
- anyone who’s ever lost something
You just log in, post the item, and that's it. Someone who found it might already be looking for the owner.
This is an early version and I’m still improving it. Would really appreciate feedback:
- What features would help?
- Would you actually use this?
- Anything confusing?
You can try it here:

Hoping this helps even a few people recover their lost stuff.
