Features
Everything ParentSync ships today, grouped by theme. Built specifically for K-12 schools. Nothing borrowed from generic chat apps.
Messaging
Send the right message to the right people. No more chasing parents in WhatsApp groups.
Message a Specific Class or Many Classes
Pick one class, multiple classes, or send the same notice to several sections at once. Each parent sees only their own thread — no group chat noise.
Message a Specific Student
Target one student's parents — or any small group like "all students absent today" — without creating new WhatsApp groups.
School-Wide Broadcast
Admin sends holiday notices, urgent announcements, and event invites that reach every parent in the school.
Private 1:1 Parent–Teacher Chat
Parents start a private thread with the teacher. The teacher's personal mobile number stays hidden.
Custom Groups
Beyond auto-groups for every class, create custom groups for sports teams, event volunteers, bus routes — anything.
File Attachments
Send up to 5 photos, PDFs, or Word docs per message (10 MB each). Stays accessible as long as parents have the app.
Scheduled Messages
Write today, send Monday morning. Useful for weekly homework digests and fee reminders.
Pin Important Messages
Stays at the top of every parent's inbox until they read it — perfect for circulars that need everyone's attention.
Ready-Made Templates
Eight structured templates built for everyday school communication. Fill the fields, send in seconds.
Homework
Subject, due date, instructions, page references. Clean structure every time.
Progress Report
Upload marks for the whole class in one Excel file. Each parent gets only their own child's marks, total, and percentage. No parent ever sees another child's report.
Exam Schedule
Tabular timetable with subject, date, time, and syllabus. Easy to scan, no formatting work.
Parent-Teacher Meeting Invite
Date, time, venue. One-tap acknowledgement so you know exactly who's coming.
Fee Reminder
Amount, due date, payment instructions, optional late fee note.
Event Notice
Annual Day, Sports Day, field trips — with venue, dress code, and any actions required.
Holiday Notice
Reason, date range, reopening date.
General Circular
For any other school notice — with circular number, details, and required action.
Engagement & Tracking
Know who read it, who didn't, and nudge only the people who missed it.
Read Receipts per Message
See exactly how many parents have read each message — and exactly who hasn't.
Acknowledgement Tracking
For important messages, parents must tap "Acknowledge". You get a permanent record of who agreed and when.
Resend to Unread or Unacknowledged
One click — only the parents who missed it get re-notified. No retyping, no nudging the parents who already read it.
Admin Analytics
Read %, acknowledgement %, and reach across every message. See trends, identify low-engagement classes.
Push Notifications by Category
Separate channels for messages, announcements, alerts, and reminders. Parents can mute or prioritize per category.
AI Rephrase
Teacher writes a rough draft. The app suggests a cleaner, more professional version. Optional, never automatic.
Privacy & Safety
The features schools care about most. Designed into every layer.
Mobile Numbers Stay Private
Parents never see each other's numbers. Teachers' personal numbers are never shared with parents. All communication routes through the app.
AI Content Moderation
Every outgoing message is automatically scanned for abusive or inappropriate content before it reaches parents.
App PIN Lock
Mobile app requires a 4–6 digit PIN. Even a stolen phone can't open school messages. Auto-lock after wrong attempts.
Content Reporting
Parents flag inappropriate messages with one tap. School admin reviews and takes action.
Per-School Data Isolation
Each school's data is fully separated. No leakage between schools. Encrypted in transit and at rest.
Verified Senders Only
Every message comes from a verified school staff member. No fake admins, no phishing.
Roles & Access Control
The right people see the right things.
Five Distinct Roles
School Head, School Admin, Teacher, Clerk, Parent. Each sees only what they should.
Teacher Scoping
A teacher can only message classes they're assigned to. Maths teacher of 5A literally cannot message 7B by mistake.
School-Controlled Communication Policy
Admin decides whether parents can reply to broadcasts and whether parents can start 1:1 chats with teachers.
Flexible Login Options
Username or email + password on the web portal. Mobile number + OTP + 4-digit PIN on the parent app. No passwords to remember.
Self-Service Profile Updates
Users update their own name and mobile number — no admin or support tickets needed.
Personalisation
Meet every parent — and every grandparent — where they are.
Translation to Regional Languages
Teacher writes in English. Parents read in Telugu, Hindi, Tamil, or any of 15+ Indian languages with one tap. Critical for non-English-reading parents and grandparents.
Multi-Child Support
A parent with two or three children sees all messages for every child in one feed, clearly tagged by child. Switch context with one tap.
Branded School Experience
Each school's name, logo, and colors throughout the app. Feels like the school's own product — not a generic SaaS.
Mobile PIN-Based Login
Parents log in to the mobile app with a 4-digit PIN — no passwords to remember. Friendly for less tech-savvy parents and elderly grandparents.
Multi-Country Support
Live in India and the USA. SMS routing, currency, and language defaults are country-aware.
Records & Compliance
A permanent, searchable record — for any future dispute or audit.
Forensic Audit Log
Every message sent, every login, every change recorded permanently. Legal-grade record for fee, behavior, or compliance disputes.
Permanent Message History
Messages never auto-delete. Parents and the school can search and retrieve any past communication.
Data Ownership
The school's data belongs to the school. Exportable on request.
Onboarding & Administration
One-time setup that powers everything else.
Bulk Excel Onboarding
Upload one Excel file. Classes, sections, subjects, teachers, students, and parents all created in minutes.
Resumable Onboarding Wizard
Pause and continue later. Progress is saved at every step — useful when school admins get pulled into urgent work.
Auto-Invite via SMS and Email
Parents and staff receive invite codes automatically. Admin tracks who has accepted in real time.
Bulk Student / Parent / Staff Management
Edit, transfer, archive, or invite in bulk — no one-by-one clicking.
Subscription with Free Trial
Full features unlocked during a 30-day trial. No payment up front. Plan-based features after trial.
Platforms
Three apps, one backend. All synced in real time.
School Portal (Web)
Full management dashboard for admins, principals, teachers, and clerks. Compose, upload, manage, see analytics — all from the browser.
Parent Mobile App
Simple, focused, parent-friendly. One feed for every school message. PIN login. Multi-child support. Translate any message.
Teacher Mobile App
Same app as parents, role-aware. Send messages from the classroom. Reply to parent chats privately, without exposing your personal mobile.
Cross-Device Continuity
Start a message on the laptop, finish it on your phone. Parent replies appear on the admin's web in real time.
