How it works

One platform, both sides of the classroom

Teachers create the pods. Kids bring the Cool. PodsCool runs the business.

For Teachers

Teach on your terms, we'll handle the business

Build your profile, import your roster, and get paid automatically - from 85% of tuition on the free package up to 100% on a paid one, deposited on the 10th with zero transfer fees.

Everything in one place

One place to teach, one place to get paid

Announcements, assignments, quizzes, turn-ins, and grades all run on PodsCool - and your class lands on everyone's calendar with a Meet link built in. No second system to keep in step.

Build a pod in minutes

Set your days, times, and price, and PodsCool works out what families pay and what you earn before you publish. No class codes to copy around, and nothing to rebuild anywhere else.

One gradebook, everyone in step

Announcements, assignments, quizzes, turn-ins, and grades live in one gradebook that teachers, parents, and students each see the same way - with the right things visible to each of them.

Class calendar + Meet

The pod's schedule lands on everyone's Google Calendar as a recurring event with a Google Meet link built in - one tap and class is live.

Your files, kept private

Banners, syllabi, and worksheets are stored securely by PodsCool. Class files are private to the pod - only the teacher and the enrolled families can open them, and links can't be shared outside.

PodsCool's use of information received from Google APIs adheres to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements. Read more in our Privacy Policy.

PodsCool uses your Google account to sign in - there's no separate username or password to create or manage. Students aged 13 and over can join with their own Google account, linked by a parent. Children under 13 do not sign in at all - a parent adds them as a managed profile instead.
