One spine, your whole studio

Everything a music school runs on.

Calendar → lesson → attendance → invoice → payment. One journey, designed end-to-end — with a parent experience families actually open, and an assistant that does the admin.

How it works

One journey, end to end.

The whole studio runs on a single spine — each step flows into the next, so nothing slips between the cracks.

01

Calendar

Schedule lessons, terms and rooms across every teacher.

02

Lesson

Run it with notes, resources and repertoire in one place.

03

Attendance

Mark it in a tap — or let LoopAssist chase what’s missing.

04

Invoice

Bill the term automatically, per family, to the penny.

05

Payment

Get paid by card — it reconciles itself, and syncs to Xero.

Everything in one place

One tool for the whole studio.

Not a scheduler with billing bolted on. A single system built around how a UK music school actually runs — from the first enquiry to the end-of-term report.

Scheduling

Week, day and month across teachers, rooms and locations. Group lessons, substitutes and conflict checks built in.

Billing & prepaid

Family accounts with prepaid balances, automatic invoicing, late fees, payment plans, Stripe & two-way Xero.

Parent portal

Practice, self-serve booking, messages and payments — emailed from your studio’s own domain.

LoopAssist

An AI assistant that does the admin and answers “how do I…”, in plain English — and never acts until you confirm.

Reports & payroll

Revenue, P&L, attendance and per-teacher pay — every figure traceable to a real lesson or payment.

Teaching

Repertoire journeys and a lending library, friendly to ABRSM and Trinity grades.

A closer look

Inside the product.

The real screens, doing the real work — each part designed to hand off cleanly to the next.

Scheduling

The timetable that runs the day.

Every lesson, teacher and room in one calm view — week, day and month, across locations — with clashes caught before they happen.

  • Group lessons, substitutes and recurrence — daily to monthly
  • Availability, time-off and closure dates, respected automatically
  • Make-ups, with credits tracked to the pupil

  • Instruments, grades and notes on every pupil
  • An opt-in studio directory parents control

  • Automatic lesson reminders that cut no-shows

Money that runs itself.

A running statement per family that reconciles to the penny — prepaid balances, credits and what’s owed, always agreeing, never a surprise.

  • See exactly who owes what, per household
  • Prepaid balances, credits and payment plans
  • Automatic late fees, with grace periods and caps

Invoicing & payments

Invoices that send themselves.

Bill the whole term in a click, take card payments through Stripe, and watch every payment reconcile and sync to Xero on its own.

  • Automatic term invoicing, per family, to the penny
  • Stripe card payments, partial pay and refunds
  • Two-way Xero sync — your books stay reconciled

Reports & payroll

The numbers, without the spreadsheet.

Revenue, outstanding, P&L, payroll, billable hours and attendance — every figure traceable back to a real lesson or payment, and one click from a CSV.

  • Revenue by month, instrument and teacher
  • Per-teacher payroll on effective hours, substitutes included
  • Expenses, mileage at HMRC rates and VAT-aware invoicing

Repertoire and lending, tracked.

A piece catalogue and a per-pupil journey — assigned, in progress, polished, performed — plus a lending library for instruments and books.

  • See what every pupil is working on, at a glance
  • ABRSM and Trinity-friendly progress
  • Loans with due dates and gentle overdue nudges

LoopAssist · your built-in AI

An assistant that does the admin —
and one you can plug your own AI into.

Ask in plain English. LoopAssist drafts the invoice, reschedules the lesson, chases the balance — and never acts until you confirm. No surprises, ever.

Questions

Good to know.

Can I bring my data from another tool?
Yes — your pupils, guardians and lessons come across, and we’ll help you do it, free, on every plan.
Is there an app for parents?
Yes — a polished iOS app for parents and light staff use, with practice, schedule and payments. Web works everywhere else.
Do you handle group lessons and ensembles?
Yes — group lessons, shared registers and per-pupil billing within a group are all built in, alongside one-to-one teaching.
Can teachers be paid through it?
Payroll reports attribute every lesson to the teacher who taught it — substitutes included — on effective hours, so a pay run is one export away.
What can the AI connector actually see?
Read-only today: it answers questions about your own studio’s data inside ChatGPT or Claude. Write actions are coming, and will always ask before they act.
Is it really UK-native?
GBP, term dates, VAT-aware invoicing, HMRC mileage rates and UK GDPR — built in, not bolted on.
