Built for school pilots

Teachers assign NFC Tag IDs to students, map each tag to an action in the Automation Builder, and an iOS client resolves taps through a token-gated API — with roster import, roles, and a five-step pilot checklist.

Sign in as Admin or Teacher to assign tags, map automations, and test tap resolve.
