State paperwork, handled.

All 51 states. Records that organize themselves. Deadlines you'll never miss. The thing that scares everyone off homeschooling — gone.

The #1 thing that keeps parents from homeschooling isn't curriculum. It isn't socialization. It isn't 'what about prom.'

It's paperwork.

Every state has different rules. Florida wants a portfolio + an annual evaluation. New York wants a quarterly report + an attendance log + an annual assessment. Pennsylvania wants you to file a notarized affidavit. Texas wants almost nothing. California wants you to either join a private school or file a private-school affidavit yourself.

I spent THREE WEEKS my first year just figuring out what Florida required. Three weeks I could have spent teaching.

Now the platform does the organizing. You tell it your state and your kids' ages once. Coursework, checkpoints, and work samples collect on Records as your kids do their work. It tells you what's due, when. The free Portfolio Starter tool builds a template in the right format for your district.

When the inspector emails — and in Florida, they do, every year — you open Records, hit Print portfolio, attach the PDF, hit Send. Five minutes.

Three weeks the first year. Five minutes every year after. That's the difference.
