5–10 hrs/week

The admin time owners get back every week — more than a full teaching day.

Zero chasing

Tuition collects itself through Stripe. No e-transfer reminders, no cheque runs, no late fees to police.

One login

Payments, calendar, attendance, comms, competitions, the family portal, and AI — replacing the separate tools and the spreadsheets in between.

Product

A live calendar and clean books, in one place.

Families book open slots themselves, and every tuition charge, custom invoice, and workshop payment lands in one ledger.

The problem

The admin stack at a growing studio is held together with tape.

Most independent studios never adopted studio software — the big-box options are priced and designed for 300-student facilities with a front desk. So the owner becomes the front desk, and the tools become whatever was lying around.

Sound familiar?
The duct-tape stack we see at real studios.
E-transfers and post-dated cheques for tuition
Custom invoices built by hand in a separate paid tool
WhatsApp threads to coordinate studio time
Schedules emailed around as static PDFs
Parent updates sent one by one from Gmail
Competition signups and documents scattered everywhere
The fix

One system for the jobs you repeat every week.

Built around how independent studios actually run — rented spaces, co-owners, feis season — not a 300-student facility with a front desk.

Your studio's brain

Stop answering the same question for the fifteenth time.

Tournament packets, FAQ docs, requirements, training videos — upload them once, and Ida, your studio's built-in AI, answers from them. Parents can ask Ida directly, so the question that used to land in your WhatsApp at 11pm gets answered without you.

Sign in

Same platform underneath — three studios, three brands. Each studio's logo, colors, and login screen are their own.

Make it yours

It should look like your studio, not generic software.

Upload your logo, set your colors, and design your own login screen — then give every family their own web address to sign in at. Ida OS runs the back office while wearing your brand, from the sign-in page to the calendar.

Why Ida OS exists

Built by a World Champion who got tired of cheque runs.

Ida OS came out of the Gott-Hughton Irish Dance Academy in Calgary — a championship-winning studio whose back office was post-dated cheques, e-transfers, and WhatsApp threads. We built the system we needed, then turned it into a product for every independent studio fighting the same admin.

“This looks fantastic and is super user-friendly!”

Simple pricing

One flat price. No per-student fees.

Most studio software charges by student count, so the bill climbs every time you grow. Ida OS doesn't.
