How Recover Works

Recover bridges physical belongings with decentralized digital protection. Protect personal valuables with scannable QR stickers and enable safe, confidential returns.

01

Register Your Personal Valuables

Sign in with Google, Email, or Web3 wallet. Register your everyday valuables (phones, laptops, keys, wallets, bags, pets). For phones, an emergency alternate contact is configured to guarantee you can always be reached.

02

Print & Attach Scannable QR Sticker

Download and print your sticker in preferred size presets: Mini (~10mm for keychains & AirPods), Standard (~25mm for phones & wallets), or Large (~50mm for laptops & luggage).

03

Instant Mobile QR Scan & Real-Time Alerts

When an item is lost and scanned, anyone with a phone camera opens a lightweight verification page (`/verify/[id]`). Real-time Web Push and email alerts immediately notify you with GPS coordinates.

04

Private Handover & Handshake PIN Verification

Coordinate a safe public meetup or local drop-off. Complete the return by matching secret verification PINs to update the state to Recovered on the Electroneum smart contract.

Built-In Security & Privacy Safeguards

Your security and personal privacy are protected by design at every step.

Shielded Identity

We never expose plain-text personal details (such as home address or primary phone numbers) on physical stickers. Your identity remains private.

No App Required

Finders do not need to install an app, create an account, or complete a technical setup. They scan and communicate instantly from any mobile browser.

PIN-Gated Handshake

Confirm physical custody before marking an item recovered with a one-time cryptographic handover PIN.

AI Location Insights

Google Gemini 2.0 translates raw GPS coordinates into clear neighborhood context and safe recovery recommendations.
