01

Attract

Publish your school site, programs, schedules, locations, instructors, and registration paths under your own domain.

02

Enroll

Turn interest into trials or paid enrollment with family pricing, add-ons, waivers, and a guided checkout.

03

Operate

Keep classes, attendance, ranks, testing, events, staff, communications, and family accounts connected.

04

Grow

See what needs attention, help students progress, and use AI-assisted setup without surrendering owner approval.

Built for martial arts

The essentials are already working together.

Families, students, staff profiles, invitations, waivers, notification preferences, and secure portals.

Recurring schedules, rooms, instructors, calendar views, classroom check-in, attendance, and events.

Student progression

Programs, ranks, requirements, testing, promotions, attendance credit, and learning resources.

Enrollment and payments

Memberships, family tiers, enrollment funnels, school-store orders, Stripe, and QuickBooks Payments.

Website and registration

Public pages, custom domains, schedules, instructors, locations, media, maps, and responsive navigation.

Payment services are provided by Intuit Payments Inc.

Founding school beta

Bring a real school. Help shape a better system.

We are selecting a small number of martial arts schools for guided beta onboarding. This is for owners who want a working platform today and a direct voice in what gets refined before broader release.

What you receive
  • Guided school setup and data planning
  • A branded public site, registration path, and portals
  • Direct support while your team validates daily workflows
  • No platform subscription while the guided beta is active
What we ask
  • A real operating workflow to validate
  • Honest feedback from owners, staff, and families
  • Patience with carefully managed beta improvements
  • Permission to learn from usage, never to own your data

Pricing direction

Core school operations should stay core.

Final public pricing will be shaped with beta schools. Families, schedules, attendance, rank progress, payment safety, and data export will not be held behind a premium tier. Future premium options may include advanced AI usage, automation, reporting, multi-location operations, and expanded Site Studio tools.

See a school in motion

Explore the same connected journey your families would use.

Visit the public demo school, then enter the workspace as an owner, instructor, or parent. The demo uses fictional martial arts data and working product flows.
