Audiri vs Schoolvoice

Audiri centralises communications for schools, tertiary education, and community organisations across Android, iOS, and the web. Schools can target updates to groups, control who may post, and use newsletters, group messages, two-way messaging, and SMS notifications. The platform also handles calendars, event RSVPs, digital forms and signatures, and parent-teacher appointment scheduling. Payments and orders can run through the My School Connect integration; Audiri says it does not store credit card information. GeoSnapshot is listed for photo sharing, and schools can ask about other integrations. Parents and teachers use the school app free, without limits on content or notifications, while school pricing is available on request for Starter, Essential, and Premium plans. Premium is the package shown with a custom-branded app. Audiri says it has passed Safer Technology 4 Schools readiness, hosts data in Australia, and lets schools restrict sensitive information or make profiles private. Support includes unlimited phone help, tutorials, articles, and an online resource centre.

Schoolvoice is a school communication platform for connecting schools, teachers, parents, and students across Android, iOS, and web. It combines chat, voice messages, school channels, stories, a teacher drive, and live broadcasts. Messages can ask recipients to acknowledge or approve something, reply, or send absence and tardiness notes. Scheduling, reminders, message recall, approval workflows, delivery reports, and personalization are also listed. Schoolvoice can send an automatic SMS to parents who remain unreachable after an interval chosen by the school, and it names PowerSchool, OneRoster, and Excel as onboarding integrations. The Free plan costs nothing, billed Free Forever, and includes core features and unlimited parent messaging. Advanced costs $15 a year per student, billed once per year, and adds district-level and multi-school management, AI reports and insights, and priority support. Emergency alerts and payment requests are not included in Free; voice calls between parents and teachers, call recording, and transcripts are add-ons on both plans.
