Bins move with their contents
Move the container once. Belongings recorded inside it keep that container as home.
Mobile-first personal inventory
Know where your stuff is.
PlacedWhere is for the ordinary problem of owning something and not remembering where you put it. Homes, garages, storage units, shipping containers, workshops, and the bins that move between them.
The question is always “Where is this item?” Search by name is the path the product is built around. Finding something by showing a picture is planned for later and is not available.
PlacedWhere now has a private browser app. Features marked upcoming are still being built.

How it works
Five steps, from a place you have to an answer you can follow. Manual bin codes work now; camera scanning is still upcoming.
- 1
Add a property
Start with a real place: a house, a storage unit, a workshop, or a shipping container in the yard. You can keep more than one.
- 2
Map locations
Rooms, walls, shelves, racks, and corners nest however that place actually works. Nothing forces a room, then a cabinet, then a shelf, then a bin.
- 3Scanning upcoming
Add and label bins
A bin is a movable container. Add it by name and assign a code such as 00427. PlacedWhere does not require proprietary labels. Camera scanning is upcoming; manual code entry works in the browser app.
- 4
Add belongings
Put an item in a fixed place or inside a bin. When the bin moves, what is recorded inside it moves with the bin.
- 5
Search
Ask where something is and follow the path back: property, location, and bin. A picture search and searching with a full sentence are upcoming and are not available.
Where is this item?
A search ends in a path, not a warehouse code. This card is an example of the answer PlacedWhere is being built to give.
