This study designed and developed the Berlabu web platform as an interactive digital tool for preventing and addressing bullying in schools. Using the Design-Based Research (DBR) method, the study followed four stages: analysis, design, development, and evaluation. Expert validation from educational technology practitioners, psychologists, and educators resulted in an average score of 3.63, placing the platform in the "very good" category. Trials with elementary school students showed that the platform was easy to use, receiving a 3.6 rating in the "very good" category. Interactive features such as Ask AI and educational videos enhanced students' understanding, while the Report ID feature provided a sense of security in reporting bullying. This is because Berlabu integrates a user-friendly interface, engaging educational tools, and a secure, anonymous reporting system, making it an effective digital solution for bullying prevention and intervention. The platform positively impacts schools by raising students' awareness of bullying, creating a safe space for reporting incidents, and supporting character education through counselling and digital learning. © School of Engineering, Taylor’s University.
