Trakist vs TuitionDesk

Trakist is an iOS app for private tutors managing students, lessons, attendance, and payments. Tutors can create one-time or recurring sessions and record schedule changes and cancellations. Attendance works for individual and group sessions, with attended, rescheduled, or canceled statuses. Marking a student as attended automatically deducts one session credit for that student.

Invoices can include a logo and business details, and Trakist’s invoicing page describes automatic payments with Stripe. The free plan includes unlimited students, up to two classes, payments, scheduling, attendance, student progress, iCloud Sync, import and export, and customizations. The Monthly plan adds unlimited classes, invoicing, automatic payments, and automatic invoice generation for $4.99 a month. The Yearly plan costs $49.99 a year and includes everything in Monthly, with a listed free trial month and 20% savings. The maker says the app is currently available only in the App Store. It describes the company as a small independent team that began as a family business. The privacy policy says Trakist does not collect, store, use, or share information, though support emails may be retained for quality assurance.

TuitionDesk is a cloud-based tuition operating system for tutors, coaching centres and institutes with multiple branches. It manages students, batches, fees and installments, attendance, schedules, homework, tests, progress, parent portal access and reports. Its permanent Free plan supports up to 10 students and unlimited batches, with AI features credit-gated. Higher plans raise student limits, and Enterprise offers unlimited students and branches. Aiyan provides fee intelligence, teacher insights, in-app help, optional parent features and AI-assisted centre setup, with capabilities depending on plan. Named integrations include Google Meet, Zoom, Teams, Razorpay and Stripe. Enterprise integrations such as APIs, webhooks, SSO and custom connectors require additional paid scoping, and compatibility must be confirmed. TuitionDesk says student and parent contact details are not sent to AI services and account data is not used to train AI models. It lists Android, iOS, Linux, macOS, web and Windows platforms. Email and web push notifications are described as free and unlimited; WhatsApp notifications are available on every plan when enabled in Settings. Paid plans start at ₹499 per month.
