Find where to search for lost treasure.

AI turns two centuries of land records, 1-metre LiDAR terrain, and satellite imagery into a defensible search area you can walk — old homesteads, robbery caches, ghost-town lots, lost mines. Every area carries an evidence grade and every source it used.

Where to start looking. Land patents, county plats, and Sanborn maps place vanished homesteads, stage stops, mill sites, and town lots to within a few dozen metres. Bare-earth LiDAR at 1-metre resolution then shows the foundation corners, wagon ruts, cellar depressions, and two-track lanes that survive under vegetation. That pairing is what turns a county-scale story into a specific place to walk.

Built for people who research before they dig. Gold caches, silver shipments, lost mines, robbery money, shipwreck cargo, war caches. Some of it is real, most of it isn’t, and the difference is in the record. Used by archaeologists, metal detectorists, prospectors, historians, and anyone who’s ever wondered whether the story about that patch of ground is true.

Reverse tracking — start at the end. Most treasure hunting starts with a legend and guesses forward. Reverse tracking works the other way. Start where the outlaws were caught, killed, or gave up the chase, then reconstruct the escape route backwards to find where they shed weight. Give it a documented endpoint and it returns ranked candidate cache zones with coordinates and terrain reasoning.

What it reads. Terrain: 1-metre bare-earth elevation data reveals cache pits, wagon ruts, collapsed foundations and mine spoils under tree cover. Archives: historical newspapers, land patents, mining claims, and register listings. Ciphers: Beale, Masonic, substitution, transposition, PLSS field notes, and surveyor-chain methods. Legality: land ownership and permit status surfaced before you plan a trip, not after.

We publish our own research. PinPoint Treasure Research runs open investigations into unsolved cases. The Beale Papers file includes recovered lodge records, independent elevation verification, a corroborated traverse model — and one published null result we retracted when it didn’t hold. The investigations are research published by the PinPoint Treasure team, not automated output from the platform.

Plans: Free includes 3 AI queries per day and basic mapping. Pro is $9.99/month for unlimited AI, full LiDAR analysis, the cipher engine, document OCR, and advanced maps. Field Pro is $19.99/month and adds GPR analysis, anomaly visualization, and an offline field data cache. Vol. 1 of the Case Files series is available now; volumes 2–10 are in research.

PinPoint Treasure is a standard research tool, comparable in category to onX Hunt, Gaia GPS, or Google Earth Pro. It is not a cryptocurrency platform, blockchain project, investment service, or money-making scheme.
