Buzz — Campus Operating System by Micah Okoh — Main preview interface

Buzz

Live

Campus infrastructure across Nigerian universities fails without warning. Power grids drop, cellular towers congest, and water stops running. When an emergency or a blackout hits, standard apps are completely useless because the network goes down with the power. Students are left guessing on rumors and chaotic WhatsApp groups.

Buzz is built offline-first. When there is no internet, the mobile app switches to a Bluetooth mesh network powered by Bridgefy. SOS alerts, verified incident reports, and emergency broadcasts hop peer-to-peer from phone to phone across campus. The moment any single device in the mesh catches a cell signal or connects to Wi-Fi, the entire batch syncs back to the cloud.

To keep the feed clean, an automated trust engine evaluates every incoming report. It verifies geofenced location clusters, calculates contributor reputation scores, and runs semantic checks with Claude to catch spam and panic-mongering before escalating to campus security. For school administrators, an institutional command center tracks live resolution times, departmental routing, and critical infrastructure health in real time.
