The Lassy Project app is a crowdsourced communication platform that aims to keep children safe by empowering parents with real-time messaging and GPS tracking. The app relies on local networks of users, known as "villages," to help spread the word and provide assistance when a child goes missing. By mapping typical routes and registering them in their system, parents can receive alerts if their child is somewhere they shouldn't be. The goal is to get critical information distributed instantly to turn hours into seconds, making the app an unprecedented tool for keeping kids safe.
