Parent communication

Announcements that
get read.
Questions that get answered.

A circular in a school bag is a coin toss. An SMS is ignored. A portal notification is never seen. Jessica sends to WhatsApp — in each family's own language — and then, unlike a broadcast tool, actually answers the questions that come back.

Parent communication automation uses an AI agent on WhatsApp to deliver school announcements, fee and attendance reminders, and answer parents’ follow-up questions automatically — in each parent’s preferred language, without an app, portal or login.

Broadcast tools only do half the job

Plenty of vendors will send a bulk message. The trouble starts one second later, when four hundred parents read “PTM on Friday” and eighty of them reply “what time?”. A broadcast tool has no answer for that. Your office does — by phone, all Thursday.

Jessica is a two-way agent. She sends the announcement and handles what comes back, because she can see the timetable it came from.

Smart broadcasts

  • Auto-translated per recipient. One announcement, written once, delivered in English, Hindi, Tamil, Malayalam, Telugu, Kannada, Marathi or Bengali depending on the family.
  • Targeted by role and class. Grade 7 parents get the Grade 7 message. Nobody gets spam that isn’t theirs.
  • Delivered where it’s read. WhatsApp, not a portal notification nobody has enabled.

Reminders that go out on time

Fee due dates, PTM slots, exam schedules, holiday notices, form deadlines. These are the messages that are always late because a human has to remember to send them. Wire them to your live records and they simply happen — see how the ERP side works.

The follow-up question is the whole point

“Was she marked present today?” “How much is still pending?” “What time is the PTM again?” “Can I get the receipt?”

Each of these is a thirty-second lookup for your office staff and a two-hour irritation across a day. Jessica resolves them against live data, instantly, scoped so that a parent only ever sees their own child.

What this changes for your staff

Teachers stop being a help desk. Office staff stop repeating themselves. The people who chose to work at a school get to do the job they came for, and the repetitive lookups get absorbed by something that doesn’t mind doing them at 11pm.

Privacy, scoped by default

Every message is answered against the asker’s role. Parents see their own child and nothing else. Every AI action is logged for audit. Jessica runs on the WhatsApp Business API, end-to-end encrypted by Meta.

Parent communication is one surface of one agent. The same Jessica handles admissions inquiries on your website and the full WhatsApp operating layer for your school.

FAQ

Parent communication questions

What is parent communication automation?

It uses an AI agent on WhatsApp to deliver school announcements, fee and attendance reminders, and answer parents' follow-up questions automatically — in each parent's preferred language, without an app, portal or login.

How is this different from a bulk SMS or broadcast tool?

A broadcast tool only sends. When parents reply with questions, your office answers them by phone. Jessica is two-way: she sends the announcement and answers the follow-ups, because she can see the live data behind the message.

Do parents need to download an app?

Zero installs. Jessica works inside WhatsApp — an app every parent already uses many times a day. No new password, no new portal, no forgotten logins.

Can announcements go out in different languages?

Yes. Broadcasts auto-translate per recipient across English, Hindi, Tamil, Malayalam, Telugu, Kannada, Marathi, Bengali and more, so one announcement reaches every family in the language they read.

Can a parent see another child's information?

No. Data stays scoped to roles — parents only see their own child, teachers only see their classes. Every AI action is logged for audit.

Can we target announcements to specific classes?

Yes. Broadcasts are targeted by role and class, so families only receive the messages that are relevant to them.
