Shyre is an anonymous resource sharing platform. People can give each other extra resources on the platform, so as to achieve effective use of resources.
Conversely, people in need of resources can more generously seek assistance online, and the process is anonymous, safe & respectful.

Design Features
Anonymouss
The ability to maintain the anonymity of demanders on the platform allows them to request requests without regard to dignity, which allows users to be more willing to initiate.
Audit Mark
Shyre conducts manual audits of requestors through a backend system, and users who pass the audits are awarded a logo.
The resource provider can identify the requestor by the logo and freely choose whether or not to provide resources to them.
