In their own words
Clefwise
Clefwise is a web-based platform for managing music teaching businesses, with scheduling, invoicing, parent access, teaching tools, and business analytics. It supports recurring lessons, availability windows, lesson credits, and Australian school-term scheduling. Invoices offer Stripe checkout, bulk sending, and overdue tracking, while a parent portal brings together schedules, lesson notes, invoices, messages, and information for each parent’s children. Teachers can manage practice tracking, repertoire libraries, student progress, recital programmes, and RSVP tracking. Business analytics include profit and loss, revenue charts, expense tracking, and tax-ready exports. Clefwise uses Stripe for payment processing and can optionally synchronize lessons with Google Calendar. Its Australian focus includes school terms for every state through 2027, AUD invoices with ABN and GST, and Sydney-hosted core data. The Free plan costs nothing and covers 3 students, scheduling, invoicing and online payments, a parent portal, and lesson notes. Pro costs A$200 a year. Students do not have their own accounts; a student-facing app is planned for a future release.
