The Challenge
Housing cooperatives lack digital tools that actually engage residents. Traditional bulletin boards and Facebook groups see low participation. The client, Nabro AS, wanted a platform that builds community through play — not just information.
The Solution
Mobile App (iOS & Android)
- Weekly asynchronous duels — residents answer at their own pace, results revealed when the round closes
- 6-tier progression — From Rookie to Nabromester
- Prize winners — weekly winner gets gift card from local sponsors
- Team competitions — building vs building, block vs block
- Phone OTP login — simple and secure, no passwords
AI-Powered Content
- Automatic question generation with Groq (Llama 3.3 70B)
- Both individual questions and entire competitions
- Anti-cheat: questions and answers hidden until round closes
Organizer & Admin Portals
- Competition, question, sponsor, and prize management
- Platform admin with global oversight
- Phase 2: Dugnad (volunteer tasks), bookings, calendar, announcements
