Product walkthrough · alpha 0.1.0-alpha.4Schoolios
One calm place to run your school: admissions to report cards, fees to payroll, and every family kept informed.
Built for schools in IndiaStart free
TodayThe school office runs on five tools and three spreadsheets
Scattered records
Admissions in one file, fees in another, marks on paper. Nobody has the whole picture.
Work that gets lost
A form half-filled, a receipt re-typed, a mark changed by two people. Time disappears.
Families left guessing
What is due? Was it received? Is there a notice? Parents call the office to find out.
The ideaOne system, one record per child
Everything connects. An admission becomes a student, a student gets a fee plan, attendance and marks add up to a report card, and the family sees it all.

Weeks 3-4 · Run beside
Keep the old process for one cycle of attendance and one fee run, and compare.
