Pinglo for universities

One front door for your campus lost property.

Students post what they’ve lost or found, prove an item is theirs in private, and arrange a careful handover. Fewer of the same questions reach your security desk, library and halls reception.

Lost property on campus is spread thin.

Items get handed in at one desk, asked about at another, and posted about in group chats. Staff answer the same questions, and a handover often rests on someone saying “that’s mine”.

1One place to look

Students check one feed for your campus instead of emailing several desks.

2Claims with proof

Whoever says an item is theirs answers a detail only the owner would know. A finder’s photo stays hidden until they do.

3Careful handovers

Hand-in points and safe meetup spots sit next to every report, so returns happen in sensible places.

What a pilot includes.

  • A private community for your campusMembers join with a PIN or by scanning your poster. Reports in it are seen only by your members.
  • Print-ready QR postersFor entrances, the library, halls and the security desk. We help you put them up.
  • Hand-in points and meetup spotsTell students where to take found items and where to meet safely.
  • Notices for your membersPost a notice with a level, from Info to Urgent, and close it when it’s resolved. Members can flag a notice to your team.
  • A short weekly summaryWhat was posted, claimed and returned, sent by email each week of the pilot.

Pilot terms: four weeks, free, one building or the whole campus. Nothing to sign and nothing to pay, and you can stop at any time. Read how Pinglo handles data in the privacy policy and our safety guidance.
