AttachmentYou're not a bad parent. You're a busy one.
Teacher emails get buried between spam, work emails, and newsletters. By the time you see it, the deadline passed.
The email came in Tuesday. It's now Friday morning. Your kid is the only one in regular clothes.
Different teachers, different formats, different schedules. Multiply the chaos by however many kids you have.
Sign in with Google. Tell us your kids' teacher email addresses. That's it.
Our AI scans teacher emails daily, extracts homework, events, deadlines, and saves attachments.
Events appear on your Google Calendar. You get one clean summary — everything you need, nothing you don't.
Set it up once. Never worry about missing school stuff again.
Homework, field trips, picture day, early dismissal — all added to your Google Calendar automatically.
Newsletters, permission slips, and worksheets saved to Google Drive and linked to calendar events.
One clean summary delivered to your inbox every evening. Everything your kids need to do tomorrow.
Track multiple children across different teachers, grades, and even different schools.

Right now we work with email (which most teachers still use heavily). ClassDojo and Remind support is on our roadmap.

About 5 minutes. Sign in with Google, add your kids' teacher emails, pick the calendar — done. First scan runs that evening.
Yes! BackpackBuddy adds events to your Google Calendar, which syncs automatically to your iPhone's built-in Calendar app. Just make sure your Google account is connected in Settings → Calendar → Accounts → Google. No extra apps needed.
