WOOLBEAD

Every Thread Tells a Story

A circular economy platform for wool clothing that embeds NFC-enabled abacus beads into knitwear, tracking each garment's lifecycle from production through multiple owners.

THE WOW MOMENT

✨ The Magic of Tap & Discover

A parent receives a hand-me-down wool sweater, taps their phone to the abacus bead embedded in the collar, and instantly sees the garment's entire journey: the sheep it came from, the grandmother who knitted it, and every child who wore it — with photos and stories from each family preserved forever.

HOW IT WORKS

NFC Bead Integration

Each garment gets a unique abacus bead embedded with NFC technology, acting as a digital passport for the wool item.

📱

Tap to Transfer

Simply tap your phone to the bead to transfer ownership, making hand-me-downs magical and trackable.

📜

Complete History
