Help arrives before the bell rings.
TESS lets teachers request classroom assistance — bathroom coverage, tech support, student care — and instantly routes it to the right responders via push, SMS, and email. No intercoms. No waiting.
From $1.00/staff/mo · Flat school rate · Custom district pricing
Built for the way schools actually run
Real-time routing
Server-sent events push alerts to every logged-in responder instantly — no polling, no refresh.
Works where teachers are
Installable PWA for iOS & Android, web push, email, and two-way SMS. Respond from anywhere.
Multi-tenant by design
Every request is scoped to a school and district. Google sign-in with domain-scoped invitations onboards staff in one click — no passwords to manage.
Audit-ready
Every request, acknowledgment, and SMS consent is logged with timestamps, IPs, and actors.
Three steps. Zero friction.
Request
A teacher picks a category — bathroom, tech, student support — and hits submit from their phone.
Acknowledge
Every available responder is notified. First one to acknowledge owns it. Everyone else sees it's handled.
Resolve
The responder closes the request with optional notes. Admins see the full timeline.
