• A faster, more secure backend capable of handling heavy traffic.
  
  

• Automating core workflows such as finder alerts, owner notifications, and recovery tracking.
  
  

• Improving platform performance and reducing load times.
  
  

• Enhancing global scalability and data security.
  
  

• Ensuring seamless integration between various backend services.
  
  

The goal was to transform their platform into a more responsive, automated, and future-ready lost & found system.

Our Approach / Solution

Mitiz Technologies worked closely with ReturnMe to revamp the platform from front to back.

1. Modern Front-End Rebuild Using React.js

We redesigned the entire UI to provide:

• A clean, simplified interface
  
  

• Better navigation for item registration and tag activation
  
  

• Faster page loading
  
  

• Mobile responsiveness
  
  

• Improved workflows for both users and enterprise clients
  
  

The new front-end significantly improved user experience and reduced friction in the recovery process.

2. Backend Optimization With PHP/Yii2

We upgraded and optimized backend components to achieve:

• Faster API performance
  
  

• Better database management
  
  

• Reduced server load
  
  

• Secure role-based access controls
  
  

• Stable architecture that supports millions of IDs
  
  

This ensured stability, speed, and long-term maintainability.

3. Python Automation for Recovery Workflows

ReturnMe’s success heavily depends on how quickly a finder and owner can connect.
We automated:

• Finder ? Owner notification system
  
  

• Identity verification
  
  

• Secure messaging workflows
  
  

• Real-time recovery updates

We ensured the platform was configured for:

• High availability
  
  

• Global delivery
  
  

• Secure data handling
