Nodus
A white-label university app that increases attendance, boosts event engagement, and strengthens campus safety—powered by geofencing and gamified rewards.
From under-attendance to a connected campus
Low classroom and event attendance. Fragmented student communities. Underreported safety concerns. Nodus brings students, faculty, and administrators onto one platform. Verify attendance with location or QR, reward participation with points, merch, or tuition credits, and capture nuanced, anonymous safety signals that help your campus respond faster—without sacrificing student privacy.
Core features
- Verified Attendance — Geofenced check-ins with QR/BLE fallback; CSV/LMS export.
- Rewards & Incentives — Points, leaderboards, merch drops, tuition credit workflows.
- Anonymous Safety Forms — Configurable forms & routing; designed to align with FERPA/Clery/Title IX.
- Event Engagement — RSVPs, streaks, house points, reminders, post-event surveys.
- Proximity Chats — Moderated, location-based channels for libraries, dorms, stadiums, labs.
- Geofenced Quests — Orientation trails, scavenger hunts, career-fair stamp cards.
- House & Class Points — Dorm/major competitions that build belonging.
- Integrations & SSO — SAML/OIDC SSO, student ID linking, optional SIS/LMS connectors.
