Stoop Share

A block-level lending shelf for tools and kitchenware, with return reminders.

Problem

Neighbors buy the same drill, steamer, and folding table, then store them unused. Informal borrowing dies in group chats.

Audience

Residents of a single block or building who already greet each other on the stoop.

Features

  • Item ledger with photos and condition notes
  • Borrow windows with return reminders
  • Trust marks from completed returns
  • Quiet public log instead of a social feed

Constraints

Must work without forcing a social network. No payments in v1. Must be usable on a phone in a hallway.

Success metric

Twenty completed borrows in the first building within 30 days, with fewer than two lost-item reports.

        Review notes

        1. Clear constraint against becoming a social network. Let it through.
