Common questions

Questions from schools & organizers.

Pricing, verification, family onboarding, dismissal management, and everything else administrators ask before getting started.

How do our families join the platform?
Verified communities are roster-based. You provide your parent roster, and we send each family a personal invite link. The link is unique per family and ties their signup to the official roster, which is how the community earns its Verified badge.
What does Verified mean?
Verified communities are claimed by the school, daycare, team, camp, or other organization. Families are matched against the organization's official roster before joining, and the organization can manage membership directly.
Can we import data from our Student Information System (SIS)?
Yes. You can bring in a roster exported from your SIS - typical fields are parent name, email, phone number, and child's grade level. We handle the rest.
Can we try the service before subscribing?
Yes. You can claim and verify your community for free - invite families, get them onboarded, and gauge interest with no financial commitment. A subscription is only required after 30 days if you choose to continue.
Who pays - the school or families?
Subscription fees are billed to a single partner organization - typically the school, district, or K-12 organization managing the community. We never bill individual families.
What does it cost a school to participate?
$400 / year for a Verified Community - and that includes onboarding from your roster, a launch kit, and ongoing support. Families inside the community always use the app for free. A free 30-day pilot lets you try it before any commitment.
Is dismissal management included by default?
No - it's an optional add-on. Carpool coordination, messaging, and family matching are available from day one. Dismissal management can be enabled separately whenever you're ready.
Can carpool and dismissal be enabled or disabled independently?
Yes. You can run carpool-only, dismissal-only, or both, and switch at any time. Most schools start with carpooling and add dismissal later.
Is there a limit on family registration?
No. All plans include unlimited parent users - there is no cap on how many families can join your community.
How do I track carpool adoption and dismissal performance?
You can track carpool adoption rates, family engagement, and geographic heat maps. If dismissal management is enabled, you also get real-time pickup confirmation rates, driver arrival times, and exportable audit reports.
Can we customize the platform to fit our school?
Yes. You can configure start and end times, run multiple schedules for different grade levels, define bell times and activities, adjust schedules anytime, and brand the app with your school or organization logo.
What resources do you provide to help us launch?
A complete communication toolkit with customizable templates for every phase - initial announcements, social media posts, sign-up instructions, and ongoing reminders. Templates can be branded with your school or organization's logo.
Where can our school get direct support?

Most things can be self-served from your admin portal. For more help:
