For schools & transport teams

Run every school bus like you can see it. Because you can.

Skolbuzz gives your school a live view of every bus, automatic boarding and drop-off alerts for every parent, and a front office that finally stops fielding "where is the bus?" calls. 100% free for schools in India.

Why schools switch

The 3:45pm phone storm, or one calm screen.

The old way

  • Parents call the office because nobody knows where the bus is
  • Drivers juggle WhatsApp groups and phone calls while driving
  • A driver change or breakdown means an afternoon of damage control
  • "Did my child get on the bus?" has no reliable answer
  • Every delay somehow becomes the school's fault

With Skolbuzz

  • Every bus on one live dashboard — you see what parents see
  • Parents get automatic alerts: approaching, boarded, arrived, dropped off
  • Substitute driver or replacement bus? Parents are told automatically, with the reason
  • Boarding is recorded child by child, with timestamps
  • One tap sends an announcement to every parent on a route
Your transport office, upgraded

Everything the office needs, in one dashboard.

Built with school transport in-charges, not just for them — every feature below is in the app today.

🗺️
Live view of every busA single dashboard showing each route's status and position in real time, morning and evening.
📍
Routes & stops, on a mapCreate routes, drop stop pins on a map, order them, and assign each student to their stop.
🧑‍✈️
Substitute drivers & busesAssign a stand-in driver or replacement bus in seconds — parents on the route are notified automatically.
📣
Broadcast to a routeFog delay? Early closing? One message reaches every parent on the route instantly.
🗓️
Absences & holidaysParent-marked absences reach the driver before the trip; holidays and working days keep alerts quiet when school is closed.
📋
Trip historyReview recent trips per route — who boarded, who was dropped off, and when.
The other two seats on the bus

Parents relax. Drivers just drive.

For your parents

A live map of their child's bus and an alert for every step of the ride — approaching, boarded, arrived at school, dropped off at home. No calls to your office required.

See all eight alerts →

For your drivers

One obvious action at a time: start the trip, board children stop by stop, drop off in order. The phone does the tracking — no typing, no calls, no distraction while driving.

Onboarding

From first call to live buses, in about a week.

We set it up with you — your transport in-charge is never left alone with a manual.

1

We sit down together

A call or visit with your transport in-charge to map your routes, stops, and buses into Skolbuzz — we do this part with you.

2

Students & parents go in

Your office adds students and parent phone numbers — each child linked to their route and stop.

3

Drivers get the app

Each driver signs in with their phone number. Their route is waiting; trips unlock 30 minutes before departure.

4

Parents just sign in

Parents install the app and sign in with a one-time code — their child's bus is already on screen. No forms, no codes.

No hardware, ever. The driver's phone is the GPS tracker — there's nothing to buy, install, or maintain in the vehicle. And Skolbuzz is 100% free for schools, parents, and drivers: no per-bus fees, no contracts, no premium tier.
For your procurement questions

Built to be trusted with children's data.

Location deleted at trip endThe bus's live position exists only during a trip and is erased the moment it ends — no location history.
Role-scoped accessParents see only their own child's route. Drivers see only their route. Your admins see only your school.
No passwords, OTP onlyEveryone signs in with a one-time code to their phone — nothing to forget, nothing to leak.
Honest by designIf a bus's GPS goes quiet for 90 seconds, the map says so instead of pretending a stale position is live.

We're onboarding our first partner schools now.

Skolbuzz is new, and we're building it alongside schools in Bangalore — with an eye on every school run in India. Early partners get white-glove setup and a direct line to the people who built the product. If you want your transport office to help shape how this works, this is the moment.

Questions schools ask

The practical stuff, answered.

What does the school need to provide?

Three things: your routes and stops (we map them with you), your student list with parent phone numbers, and each driver's phone number. That's the entire requirement — no hardware, no IT project, no server.

Do our buses need GPS devices installed?

No. The driver's own phone shares the bus position while a trip is running, through the driver app. Nothing is bought, fitted, or maintained in the vehicle.

What happens when a driver or bus changes mid-year?

Your admin reassigns the route to a substitute driver or a replacement bus in the dashboard — every parent on that route is automatically notified of the change, including the reason, before the bus arrives.

How do parents get access?

Your office adds each family's phone number when setting up students. Parents then install the app and sign in with a one-time code — their child's bus is already on screen. There are no forms, codes, or passwords to distribute.

Is it really free for the school?

Yes — completely free for schools, parents, and drivers. No per-bus fees, no per-student fees, no contracts, and no premium tier you secretly need. See our full FAQ for more.
