Why we built EduHost
EduHost is Gigax's school management platform. It brings admissions, attendance, fees, exams, the timetable and a parent app into one system, with a private database for every school. Next come AI features for school staff only.
Schools often run on a mix of registers, spreadsheets, messaging groups and separate fee software. EduHost brings the whole institution into one system.
What EduHost does
- Admissions, from enquiry to enrolment.
- Attendance for students and staff.
- Fees, with online payment.
- Exams, results and the timetable.
- A parent app, so parents can see attendance, results and fees.
Every school gets its own address and its own private database.
Where it stands
We launched EduHost about three months ago. Schools can start with a 14-day free trial, with no card required.
What comes next
We are adding AI features for school staff: drafts of fee reminders, summaries of attendance and reports, and insights on exam results. These features are for staff only; students do not use them, and staff stay in control of every message that goes out.
EduHost is built and run by the same Gigax team that builds software for our clients.
