Registers, WhatsApp groups and a phone that never stops ringing

Why schools choose Almanac
Less admin for your staff. More trust from your parents.
Almanac is built around the people who use it every day, not around a spreadsheet.
Built around the parent's phone
Attendance, homework, what was taught, datesheets, report cards, events and messages from the class teacher reach families without a single call to the office.
Safer school gates
Gate passes are a one-day QR code for a registered guardian, checked at the gate in seconds. Every early pickup is on record.
Teachers get hours back
Everyone starts as present, so teachers tap only the exceptions. Marks, class logs and homework go in from the phone between periods.
A principal's control room
Attendance health, fees collected, dues, pending leave and gate passes, and open concerns, all on one screen each morning.
Accountable by design, and made for India
Each role sees only what it should. Sensitive changes are written to an audit log, and marks are locked before report cards go out. Amounts read in lakhs, times in IST.

Know exactly who takes every child home

Questions
Things schools often ask
Do parents need a computer?
No. Parents and students use the Almanac phone app only. The web portal is for the principal, the office and teachers.
Can teachers work from their phones?
Yes. Teachers can use the web portal or the phone app, and the app is made for things done in class: attendance, class logs, homework, messages and approvals.
Who can see a student's information?
Access depends on the role. A parent sees only their own children, a teacher sees the classes they teach, and the principal sees the whole school. Sensitive changes are kept in an audit log.
Does it handle several classes, sections and academic years?
Yes. You set up academic years, terms, classes, sections, subjects and class teachers once, and every module uses them.
Can parents pay fees online through Almanac?
Not today. Almanac keeps the school's fee records: structures, term invoices, discounts, payments by cash, cheque, UPI or bank transfer, and PDF receipts. Ask us about payment collection when we talk.
Can we print report cards and receipts?
Yes. Report cards and fee receipts are produced as PDFs with your school's name, ready to print or share.
How is Almanac priced?
Pricing is per student, per year, with plans for different school sizes and needs. Tell us about your school on the enquiry form and we'll send a quote.
