Where the day-to-day breaks down

The three things that eat up the most time in this role, every week.

💸

Fee collection is a black box

You find out about dues weeks later, cash flow suffers, and follow-ups fall on your office staff.

📉

Enrollment trends are invisible

You only know admissions are down when it's too late. No early warning, no trend line.

📊

Board meetings need data you don't have

Trustees ask for year-on-year comparisons, cost per student, staff ratios. You scramble to compile them.

Built around the numbers school owners actually need

Chatmadi is built around the numbers school owners actually need. A single dashboard with fee collection percentage, pending dues by class, enrollment pipeline, staff cost ratio, and AI-generated insights from your WhatsApp groups. No more asking three people to open three spreadsheets.

Questions from school owners

Does my principal or office admin need a separate login?

Yes. Every staff member gets their own login with role-based access. Owner sees everything. Principal sees academics. Admin sees fees and daily ops. Teachers only see their classes.

We run multiple branches under one trust. Does Chatmadi handle that?

Yes. Each branch is a separate workspace. Plans are based on student count per workspace, so a 400-student branch runs on the School plan, a 80-student branch runs on Growth.

How does fee collection integrate with our existing bank account?

Razorpay credits go directly to your school's registered bank account. Chatmadi never touches your money. We only process the transaction and reconcile records.

Can I see fee collection without logging in to a dashboard every day?

Yes. You get daily WhatsApp summaries and weekly email digests with the top-line numbers. Log in only when you want to drill down.

What happens if we outgrow our current plan mid-year?

Upgrade takes effect immediately. Annual plan holders get prorated credit for the unused portion and pay the difference for the new plan.

Is my school's data secure?

Data is encrypted at rest on Supabase (SOC 2 Type II), encrypted in transit, and we follow DPDPA 2023 compliance. See our Privacy Policy for full details.
