Safety that works when nothing else does.
WanderSafeMesh is Miami's first community-owned emergency mesh: 100 solar nodes delivering safety information, emergency alerts, and crisis contacts to LGBTQ+, Deaf, disabled, undocumented, and unhoused residents when apps, cell towers, and power grids fail.

The gap
Apps fail when emergencies are real.
During Hurricane Ian, Miami-Dade's cell towers overloaded in hours. During an ICE sweep, a cell-connected app is a liability. When you're Deaf, unhoused, or don't speak English, official emergency systems were never built for you.
The mesh
Offline by design. Community by architecture.
Each node runs AES-256 encrypted LoRa mesh firmware — connecting to neighbors without internet, cell service, or power. Icon-first e-ink display for Deaf users. Audio mode for blind users. Three tactile buttons. Panic button routes to community responders — never police.
The hardware
$133. Solar. 72 hours. Open source.
3D-printed enclosure. Heltec SX1262 LoRa radio. LiFePO4 battery. 5W solar. IP67 weatherproof. Mounted at ADA height on Little Free Libraries across Wynwood, South Beach, Overtown, Liberty City, and Little Havana.

The covenant
Zero surveillance. Architecturally enforced.
No cameras. No tracking. No data stored. The community governance board holds veto authority over any change to this architecture. Government cannot subpoena data that does not exist. This is not a policy — it is a design constraint.
Panic button routing is community-first and never police.
Where we are
Miami pilot launching 2026.
Phase 1: 50 nodes in South Beach, Wynwood, Little Havana, Overtown, and Liberty City — prioritizing underserved corridors alongside tourist districts. Phase 2: 100 nodes full coverage. Year-2 expansion: FEMA BRIC funding pathway mapped for 500 nodes.
