losume

An image based local stuff finder. losume (rather 'con'sume) exists to prove that technology can help rebuild, not replace, local communities. The platform gives people a low‑effort way to lo'cate what they need nearby, same day or later, keeping a human touch (advise, referral, local knowledge..)  while giving retailers a lo-pressure, anonymous option to swipe yes if they have or alternative. In doing so, we reduce journeys, CO₂, revive confidence in small retail (the guardians of our streets) thus town‑centre vibrancy, and protect the future of indigenous Irish businesses. Launching full version in Sligo Q1 '26. As we grow, we’re seeking board members who share our belief in community empowerment, accessible digital tools, and ethical technology that serves the public good. losume.org/retailers/#faq
