<p><b>Startup Description</b></p><p>My business is a production-ready SaaS platform that helps K–12 schools manage student dismissal more safely and efficiently. The platform includes native iOS and Android apps for parents and staff, a web-based administration dashboard, geofencing technology, real-time parent arrival detection, notifications, dismissal management, and communication tools. The product was built after identifying inefficiencies in traditional school pickup operations and has been developed over more than a year with significant investment.</p><p><b>Key highlights</b></p><ul> <li>Annual revenue: ~$6,000 ARR (1 paying customer)</li> </ul> <ul> <li>Annual profit: Currently operating at a planned loss while investing in product development</li> </ul> <ul> <li>Churn rate: 0% (early-stage)</li> </ul> <ul> <li>LTV: High recurring subscription model with long customer retention potential</li> </ul> <ul> <li>CAC: Early-stage; customer acquisition through direct outbound sales</li> </ul> <ul> <li>Business model: B2B SaaS with onboarding fees and monthly subscriptions.</li> </ul> <p><b>Team</b></p><p>The business is founder-led with one full-time software developer responsible for product development and maintenance.

The product has generated significant interest from schools and continues to build a qualified sales pipeline. Future growth opportunities include channel partnerships, paid search, diocesan partnerships, and reseller agreements with education technology providers.</p><p><b>Revenue &amp; Profit</b></p><p>The business is in its commercialization phase. Revenue currently comes from recurring SaaS subscriptions and onboarding fees. Most investment to date has been directed toward product development rather than profitability, resulting in a completed production platform with relatively low ongoing development costs. The business is positioned for revenue growth as additional schools convert from the existing sales pipeline.</p><p>✅ $1,600 TTM revenue</p><p>✅ 3 customers</p><p>✅ Business model: SaaS</p><p>✅Built with TypeScript, Express.js, Node.js</p>
