Beyond Geocaching®

Presence is bigger than any single activity.

Lodestone® began in Geocaching® because geocachers understand something most systems forget: the world is messy, people are clever, and outdoor experiences need to work even when conditions are imperfect.

That foundation makes Lodestone useful far beyond the game.


Where Lodestone fits naturally

Events and experiences

Museums, festivals, guided routes, pop-ups, exhibitions, city walks.
Lodestone creates a simple, trustworthy way to confirm participation and unlock content.

Tourism and placemaking

Visitor trails, heritage routes, downtown challenges, destination passports.
Lodestone can make a place feel collectible without making it complicated.

Education and outdoor learning

Field trips, ecology stations, interpretive trails, campus experiences.
One tap can confirm a real visit and unlock learning moments tied to location.

Workflows that require proof

Inspections, checklists, equipment validation, compliance logs.
Lodestone can provide a cryptographic proof-of-presence when “trust me” is not enough.


The common thread

These uses share the same need:

  • a real person
  • at a real place
  • at a real time
  • verified in a way that is hard to fake

Built to be respectful

Lodestone verifies moments. It does not exist to monitor movement.

The best Lodestone experiences feel like:

  • discovery
  • progress
  • proof that matters
  • a small spark of delight
