At the core, the NPS system was created to safeguard communities.
We are proud to introduce a group/user management system unrivalled in the industry called freeMIRROR-Communicate.

The reason for the system:

  • Many instant messaging (Telegram/Whatsapp etc) community groups exist for the same purpose.
  • Whatsapp groups have a limit of 255 users per group.
  • Some groups are very geographically widely spread, making some "local" info irrelevant to other group members e.g. dogs running in the street.
  • Reaction groups and security companies cannot monitor all groups.
  • Due to high potential traffic on groups, many users "muted" the group or the group is very strictly "moderated" making it ineffective for emergencies.
  • Group members are seldom vetted and placed on groups that are not applicable to them they then "squad" on groups as they believe it is the right group, they then take a spot that other members may need.

What the system offers:

  • Autonomous BOT that never sleeps or rest that is available any time a user requires a service.
  • New/existing member registration on WhatsApp - for user vetting and record keeping.
  • User management.
  • Group management.

System functions

The system defines different user roles to users namely:

The system admin is ultimately responsible for setup and controlling the BOT on the instant messaging platform.

Group Admin

The group admin is responsible for adding a group(s) to the system.
He/She acts as the contact person for the group if the system admin needs assistance.

Adding a group

To add a group to the system first place the BOT on the group then send the command group on that group.
The BOT will pick up that a new group have been added and respond with a confirmation message to the group.
The group admin will then receive direct messages from the BOT to set up the group and then receive a private link to the Group admin backend.
