School operations, without the chase

Saarthi is a parent-first school operations platform for Indian schools — live bus tracking, attendance, fees, academics and school communication in one place. It exists because a school morning shouldn't run on WhatsApp groups, missed calls and paper registers, and a parent shouldn't have to chase the office to know their child is safe.

Why we built Saarthi

Most schools run their day across a dozen disconnected channels — one thread per bus route, attendance on paper, fee reminders over calls, circulars in notebooks. The school office ends up answering the same questions all morning, and parents wait for information that should already be on their phone.

Saarthi brings the whole day into one shared, live system. The school office sees the same truth the parent sees: the bus is here, attendance is marked, the receipt is paid, the diary entry is out. Fewer calls for the office, fewer worries for parents, and a record the school can actually trust.

Parent-first, always

Every decision starts from the parent's seat. If a parent has to call the school to find out where their child's bus is, or whether attendance was marked, we haven't done our job.

India-first, DPDP-aligned

Built for Indian schools — fees, transport, attendance and communication the way this country actually runs them. Aligned with the DPDP Act 2023, with student data stored securely in India.

No hardware. No disruption.

Schools shouldn't need a hardware rollout to modernise. Saarthi goes live after onboarding — no GPS hardware, no disruption to the routines that already work.

Built by Crestova

Saarthi is built and operated by Crestova Labs — an engineering studio that designs, builds and ships software end-to-end: full-stack products, mobile apps, AI systems and cloud infrastructure.

The same team that runs Saarthi's platform — API, real-time GPS ingest, parent apps — is the team that builds it. Engineering precision, delivered at scale, is not a tagline here; it's how the product is operated every day.
