Document request chaser for education
Parents ask the same questions about fees, timetables and term dates. For schools and tutoring centres that's a common story, and it's what the document chaser is for. Asks for the documents you need, reminds people politely and files what comes in.
The problems it takes off your list
- Parents ask the same questions about fees, timetables and term dates.
- Enquiries from the website go cold before anyone calls back.
- Term fees get chased by hand.
What it looks like in practice
Say you run a small online language school. You need four documents from a student. They get one message with the list and an upload link. Two arrive the same day. The reminder three days later brings in the rest, all named and filed in your shared drive.
How it works for education
Step by step, this is what the document chaser does with your students and parents.
- You choose what's needed from a student.
- They get a clear list with an upload link.
- Reminders go out until everything is in.
- Uploads are named and filed in your shared drive.
- You see what's still missing.
Tools it connects to
For schools and tutoring centres, I usually connect it to Google Forms and Mailchimp. It runs on n8n, Google Drive and Typeform behind the scenes.
Questions from schools and tutoring centres
Does the document chaser work with Google Forms?
Often, yes. Before building the document chaser I check your Google Forms account and plan, because some features depend on API access. If there's a gap for your education setup, you'll know before you pay anything.
What happens if something breaks?
The document chaser sends you an alert when a step fails, so it never fails quietly in the middle of a busy week. You can fix small things with the notes I leave, or add the care plan at $49 a month and I'll handle it.
What does the document chaser cost to run each month?
Setup for the document chaser starts at $300 while the launch offer is on, for schools and tutoring centres and everyone else. Tools like OpenAI, Twilio and n8n hosting usually cost $5 to $30 a month, billed to you directly. I'll tell you the exact number before we start.
