The problem at this venue
One-night events do not have a season. The room turns over for the next booking, and anything unlogged is in a closet with no name on it.
The host, the planner and the guest each think someone else called. The venue still owns the item.
A convention center runs multi-day shows. A banquet hall runs a different event every night. The volume is lower and the turnaround is faster, and the notebook still fails.
How Boomerang works here
01Guest claim
Guests file a claim in under 45 seconds from any device, through the link on your website or a QR code. No app download. Staff can file for a guest who calls or walks up, and that guest gets the same updates.
02Staff log the item
Staff log a found item from a photo. The description is written with the photo, in about 30 seconds, instead of about 4 minutes by hand.
03AI matching
Matching runs when an item is logged and when a claim comes in. It reads photos, descriptions, dates, locations, follow-up answers and venue context. Your team confirms every match before the guest is notified. The guest then sees the same details and approves or denies the match.
04Pickup or shipping
The guest pays for shipping. They choose a carrier and service level at checkout, at discounted rates. Guests typically pay under $15 for a standard return. Pickup is there too, with a signature for the handover.
