FoundationsAI

    One place for every message, event and booking in your school

    Texts, emails, WhatsApp, event tickets and sign-up forms in one system. Run by your PTA or school office. Works alongside the school systems you already use.

    No booking fees on tickets. No app for parents to download.

    Sound familiar?

    The office emails from one inbox. The PTA uses another app. Every teacher has their own. Parents get the same reminder three times, or miss it altogether.

    “If my school are having this problem, every school will be.”
