IntelligenceMesh (Dual-Protocol Mesh Node)

A pocket-sized mesh relay that extends two wireless networks at once. Turn it on and it starts working. No WiFi. No accounts. No setup.

The IntelligenceMesh Relay is a dedicated hardware node that relays encrypted mesh traffic over Bluetooth Low Energy. It is compatible with every Offline Protocol app, every project built on our open SDKs, and with Bitchat — the decentralized BLE messenger from Jack Dorsey. One device, two mesh networks, zero configuration.

When you power it on, it immediately begins discovering nearby mesh devices and relaying their messages to extend range and improve delivery. It works indoors and outdoors, in cities and in disaster zones, at protests and at festivals. It works when cell towers are down and when the internet is off. It works because it doesn’t need either.

What it does

• Relays Offline Protocol mesh traffic: compatible with all OP apps, services, and SDK-based projects
• Relays Bitchat mesh traffic: fully compatible with the Bitchat iOS and Android app
• Earns relay incentives: tracks messages relayed, uptime, and peers served toward your contribution score
• Pairs with the IntelligenceMesh companion app: a tiny AI assistant with local emergency resources, offline maps, and mesh visualization
• Syncs knowledge with nearby devices: when connected to other mesh nodes, shares and receives local resource data automatically
• Fully customizable display: pick your colors, layouts, and screen order from the companion app’s theme editor
• Open developer platform: build your own modules, screens, and integrations with the included dev kit and quickstart guide

How it works

1. Press the side button for 2 seconds to power on. The display shows the IntelligenceMesh logo.

2. The relay immediately begins advertising on both mesh protocols and scanning for nearby devices.

3. Download the free IntelligenceMesh companion app (iOS/Android). Open it and tap to pair with your relay.

4. The companion app lets you customize themes, view mesh stats, access local AI resources, and update firmware.

5. Leave it on your desk, clip it to your bag, or plug it into USB-C and forget about it. It relays automatically.

Companion app features

• Real-time mesh topology visualization: see every connected device, link quality, and message flow
• Local AI assistant: ask questions and get answers from a local knowledge base, no internet required
• Offline maps: pre-downloaded maps with resource overlays
• Theme editor: full color picker, layout selector, and screen order customization
• Hardware manager: view battery, firmware version, relay stats, and push OTA updates
• Relay contribution tracker: see your score and stats for the incentive program

For developers

The IntelligenceMesh Relay ships with an open developer platform. Build custom modules that display your own data on the relay’s screen. The module system uses a simple JSON-based API: define a layout, push data from your React Native app over BLE, and the relay renders it. Example modules included: weather display, crypto price ticker, pomodoro timer. Full BLE protocol specification, firmware source, and quickstart tutorial available at docs.offlineprotocol.com.
