NAVED FORMS
Forms that already know who's submitting them
Build custom forms in minutes — and stop wasting time sorting out which family sent what.
Drag and drop your fields, publish to a group, and share a link. When a logged-in parent or student opens the form, their name, their child's name, and their grade are already filled in from the school directory — no manual entry, no typos, no mystery submissions.
Permission slips, field-trip RSVPs, survey responses, and data-collection forms all tie back automatically to the right student record. You see who responded, who hasn't, and exactly what they said — without chasing anyone down.
- Drag-and-drop form builder — Add text fields, date pickers, checkboxes, and dropdowns without any technical setup.
- Auto-identified respondents — Logged-in families never retype their name or student — the directory fills it in for them.
- Targeted publishing — Send a form to all families, a specific class, or any custom group in your school directory.
- Response tracking — See at a glance how many families responded and follow up with the ones who haven't.
