The problem it solves

You want parents to stay informed about their child's grades and attendance, but pulling that data together and writing individual updates eats up your week. Important progress notes get delayed or skipped when things get busy. Parents are left guessing how their kid is really doing.

Who it fits

A school, tutoring center, or teacher who wants to keep parents updated without manual reporting.

How it works

Runs automatically on a set day and time each week
Pulls each student's grades, attendance, and progress notes from your school system
Formats the information into an easy-to-read report
Emails the report to each parent through Gmail
Logs every report that was sent for your records

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.
