- With Etqan: Teachers record attendance in every session, and parents get the absence alert
- 3Invoices
- Today: WhatsApp & spreadsheets: Manual invoices and chasing
- With Etqan: The family invoice is issued with the subscription; pay online via Stripe or PayPal
- 4Payroll

- 5Progress
- Today: WhatsApp & spreadsheets: Progress lives in the teacher's head
