NeoProf alternative
NeoProf alternative: Kadrella, tutoring management from WhatsApp
Kadrella is a NeoProf alternative for tutors who work on WhatsApp: Superprof import, bank reconciliation and a free plan with no student or time limit. NeoProf stays better if you want the French instant tax-credit advance, automatic reminders and a family space with card payment.
Updated 19 October 2026
NeoProf is a French app for registered private tutors. Its main strength is the instant tax-credit advance: the family pays only its share and URSSAF pays the rest. It adds a family space with card payment, SMS or email lesson reminders and automatic chasing of unpaid invoices, for €9.90/month after 4 free months.
Kadrella starts from another habit: the tutor or small business that runs everything on WhatsApp. Family messages, lessons, payments received and bank transfers end up in one place. Kadrella sends no automatic reminders and handles neither the instant advance nor tax certificates. In return, its free plan has no student or time limit, and it works in English or French, in any currency.

- You want to offer the French instant tax-credit advance to families: Kadrella does not handle it.
- You want lesson reminders and unpaid-invoice chasing that go out on their own, with no click from you.

Moving from NeoProf to Kadrella
List your students in a CSV or Excel file (name, phone, rate), then import it into Kadrella: columns are matched automatically. Students from Superprof can be imported directly. Plan about an hour for a solo tutor.
If your families use the instant advance through NeoProf, think before switching: Kadrella does not offer it. Some tutors keep NeoProf for families on the instant advance and use Kadrella for the rest.
