Why AIRTEC
Modules are table stakes. This is the difference.
Every school ERP lists Fees and Exams. These are the reasons schools choose AIRTEC, each one something we can show you in a demo.
01
Every rule is a setting, not code
The problem
Schools bend their process to fit the software, or pay for custom changes.
How AIRTEC handles it
- Result rules and fee concessions
- Admission hold days, waitlist response time and document checklists
- Homework late and resubmission policy
- Library borrowing policies
- Teacher workload limits
- Transport workflows
- Each with a safe default, so nothing breaks before anyone configures it
In the demo: apply the CBSE preset, change one subject’s pass mark, and watch the report card change.

It runs while you’re not looking
The problem
Reminders, alerts and sweeps rely on someone remembering.
How AIRTEC handles it
- 17 scheduled jobs across fees, admissions, timetable cover, HR, transport, library, exams and notification delivery
- Each has a manual “run now” fallback for administrators
- 00:05Starts any exam scheduled for today
- 06:45Syncs approved staff leave into today’s absences and proposes absences from biometric attendance (Mon–Sat)
- 07:00Sends fee reminders to families with dues, RTE seats excluded
- 07:00–15:00Every 15 minutes, watches for teachers who haven’t checked in before their period starts
- 06:00–16:00Every 5 minutes, reminds substitutes who haven’t acknowledged a cover, then escalates
- 07:30 MonFlags teachers over their workload limit
