How Institutions Can Bulk-Register Found Items on WeFoundIt
WeFoundIt Team
April 20, 2025
If you manage found items at a police station, university, hotel, or transport company, WeFoundIt's institutional dashboard lets you register items individually or in bulk: then our system automatically notifies owners.
Getting Started (5 Minutes)
- Create an institution account at app.wefoundit.space/register: select "Institution" during signup
- Add your institution details: name, type (police, university, hotel, transport), address, GPS coordinates
- Wait for verification: our team verifies institutional accounts within 24 hours
Registering Items
Option A: One-by-One (Mobile)
Open the app → tap "Register Found Item" → fill in category, name on document (if applicable), location found, add a photo. Takes 30 seconds per item.
Option B: Bulk Upload (CSV)
Prepare a spreadsheet with columns: title, category, document_name, document_number, city, description. Upload it from the institutional dashboard → all items are registered at once and immediately start matching.
Option C: QR Labels
Print QR code labels from the dashboard. Stick one on each item's envelope. When the owner scans the QR code (from a poster or notification), they're taken directly to the claim flow.
What Happens After Registration
- The system scans all existing lost-item reports for matches
- Matched owners receive push notifications + email + SMS
- Owners visit your location to collect (you verify their identity)
- The item is marked as "returned" in the system: your stats update
Pricing
Free for all institutions. WeFoundIt earns only from voluntary owner-to-finder rewards. Your institution gets the platform, dashboard, analytics, and bulk tools at no cost.
