Database isolation for every organization
Why operators switch
Hostels run on paper, memory and goodwill. Until they don't.
Every operator we talk to describes the same week: a double-booked bed, an unpaid fee nobody chased, a complaint lost in a chat group. Each one is a process problem, and each one has a fix.
Room allocation lives in a spreadsheet
A live room & bed map that can't double-book
Fees are tracked in notebooks and WhatsApp
Charges, payments, receipts and overdue lists
Roll-call on paper, lost by Friday
One-tap attendance with history per student
Visitors sign a register nobody reads
Approved visitor requests and a check-in desk
Complaints disappear into chat groups
Tickets with owners, priorities and timelines
Notices pinned to a board
Targeted notices delivered to every phone
Records scattered across people and files
One system of record for the whole organization
The platform
Every hostel workflow, connected
Each module shares the same student, room and hostel records, so a leave approval updates attendance and a transfer updates fees and notices automatically.
Rooms, beds & allocation
Model every hostel, building, floor, room and bed. Allocate in two clicks and see live occupancy at a glance.
Resident records
A single, searchable profile for every student: contacts, guardians, documents, fees, attendance and history.
Attendance
Wardens mark nightly roll-call per hostel in seconds; students see their own record.
Leave management
Students apply from their phone. Wardens approve with remarks. Everyone is notified automatically.
Complaints & maintenance
Every issue gets a reference, priority, owner and timeline until it is resolved and closed.
Visitor management
Pre-approved visitor requests, walk-in registration and a clean check-in / check-out desk view.
Fees & receipts
Define fee structures, raise charges in bulk, record payments and issue numbered receipts.
Notices & notifications
Publish notices to a hostel, to students or to wardens, delivered in-app and by email.
Reports
Occupancy, attendance, collections, outstanding balances, complaints and visitors with date filters.
How it works
Live in an afternoon, not a semester
- 01
Create your organization
Sign up, name your organization and pick a plan. Your 10-day trial starts immediately.
- 02
Configure hostels & rooms
Add hostels, buildings and floors, then generate rooms and beds in bulk.
- 03
Invite wardens & add students
Wardens get their own operational dashboard; students get a self-service portal.
- 04
Run everything from one place
Allocation, attendance, leave, complaints, visitors and fees, all in one workspace.
Role-based by design
Three experiences. One source of truth.
Each person sees exactly what their job needs, and the database enforces it, not just the menu.
Admin
The whole organization at a glance
- Occupancy, collections and open issues across every hostel
- Rooms, beds, allocation and transfers
- Fees, payments, reports and audit logs
- Team, billing and organization settings
Warden
A focused desk for daily operations
- Only the hostels they are assigned to
- Roll-call, leave approvals and visitor desk
- Complaint handling, incidents and inspections
- No access to billing or sensitive settings
Student
A mobile-first self-service portal
- Room, bed, fee status and payment history
- Apply for leave and request visitors
- Raise complaints with photos and track progress
- Notices, documents and hostel rules
Security
Your residents' data, locked to your organization
Isolation isn't a filter in our code; it's enforced by PostgreSQL Row Level Security on every table. Even a mistake in the interface can't show one organization another's records.
Row Level Security
Tenant and role rules evaluated in the database.
Private file storage
Documents served through short-lived signed links.
Audit trail
Allocations, payments, approvals and role changes are logged.
Stripe billing
Card details never touch our servers.
