our brand story

Our story started with a UFO sightings app, seriously.

It was an experiment in anonymous, crowd-sourced reporting. Users could drop a pin, share photos or audio, and confirm what others saw. What we learned was surprising: when people can share information anonymously, they actually tell the truth. Participation skyrockets, and patterns start to emerge.

Then we noticed a local problem. In California, conversations had shifted from paranormal activity in the sky to movement on the ground Coyotes. Pets missing, wildlife disrupted, no reliable data, and no clear plan. Just group chats, facebook posts/groups, and next door updates all attempting to do the same thing. Report their encounter with a coyote, let neighbors know of the danger lurking, while staying safe and not over sharing their location on the internet. This said to us the community cared, but there was no system to connect what everyone was seeing.
