Is there a per-child fee?

No. Plans are flat: up to 10, 30 or 50 enrolled children. Inquiries and the waitlist don't count.

What happens if I go over my plan's limit?

Nothing breaks. We warn you at 90%, and at the limit we ask you to upgrade or contact us before adding more. Nobody gets locked out.

Monthly plans: cancel any time. Annual plans are paid a year ahead; if you cancel, yours runs to the end of that year. Every plan has a 30-day money-back guarantee.

Can parents use it on their phone?

Yes. Parents get a free account with the daily feed, photos and messages, and they sign your forms on their phone; you can still print or offer paper. It installs like an app; no app store.

Where is my data stored?

Stored in the US (Supabase, Vercel). Emails are sent through Zoho ZeptoMail (India). Support is provided from India. Every center is separated by row-level security, and photos are private, served through expiring links.
