Why Kadrella
Keep your tools. Kadrella plugs into them.
Kadrella is management software for private tutoring that works after the fact. You teach, your students pay you and you talk to them the way you already do. Kadrella records, matches and follows up based on what actually happened.
No in-house video tool, no payment platform, no app for parents to install.
The problem
Most tutoring software asks you to change how you work
A lot of tutoring software and learning platforms (LMS) are built as closed spaces: their own virtual classroom, their own payment module, their own messaging, their own app to install. To get anything out of them, everyone has to move in.
In practice that means moving lessons from Discord or Zoom to a video tool nobody knows, asking parents to pay a new way, and telling every student where to write from now on. Some drop off along the way, and for weeks you run two systems at once.
Kadrella starts from the other end: your business already exists and it works. The software has to fit around it.
The idea
Kadrella comes after the lesson, not before
Nothing has to go through Kadrella for a lesson to happen. Kadrella looks at what happened in your tools and builds the follow-up from it.
Side by side
A closed platform or a tool that plugs in
| Topic | All-in-one platform | Kadrella |
|---|---|---|
| Video | Its own classroom, which everyone has to adopt | The one you already use, or in person |
| Payment | Collected by the platform, sometimes with a commission | Students pay you as before. Kadrella tracks payments without collecting them, with no commission |
| Messaging | One more inbox to check | WhatsApp and Discord, on your usual accounts |
| Calendar | A separate calendar | Your lessons show up in Google Calendar |
| Students and parents | An account to create, an app to install | Nothing to install. A link to download their invoices |
| Getting started | The whole business moved over at once | One integration at a time, whenever you want |
Integrations
What you keep, what Kadrella handles
Every integration is optional and connects on its own. The ones you do not use stay out of the way.

No integrations
What if you use none of these tools?
Kadrella works without them too. A teacher who teaches in person and gets paid in cash enters lessons and payments by hand, and gets the same follow-up: hours, unpaid lessons, history per student.
The free plan already covers students, teachers, lessons and payment tracking, with no limits. You add an integration the day it saves you time.
Any organization
Solo or agency, same idea
An independent teacher has no use for team-management screens: Kadrella notices and hides them. An agency with several teachers gets them, with each teacher’s pay and statistics per teacher and per student.
Currency and timezone are set per organization, so it works from any country.
