A business lists a useful material. Someone nearby discovers a new possibility.
Upstreams turns a local problem into a practical platform: helping useful materials find their next purpose. It brings my interest in systems and community building together.
One business’s byproduct can be another person’s starting point. Make those possibilities easier to discover and connect.
A live marketplace prototype exploring how local businesses and communities can exchange useful materials.
Turning a broad community ambition into a focused product people can explore. The prototype is a starting point, with room to learn from real use.
