For tutors in Chennai (Tamil, English, Telugu speakers)
Spend time teaching, not chasing parents for fees or reminding them about tomorrow's class. Doggu runs the operations layer of your tuition or coaching business. Built for Chennai's T. Nagar, Anna Nagar, Adyar, Velachery businesses — works in Tamil, English, Telugu.
Key business hubs: T. Nagar, Anna Nagar, Adyar, Velachery, OMR, Mylapore. Languages: Tamil, English, Telugu, Malayalam.
Tamil-only customers form 60-70% of service business inbound. Generic English-only chat or voice loses these leads to local competitors immediately.
Sending individual reminders, taking screenshots of UPI confirmations, marking the spreadsheet. The work compounds when you have 50+ students across 3 batches.
Some parents get test results; others find out from their kid. Class cancellation goes out at 9pm for a 7am class — not everyone sees it. Avoidable churn.
Parent attends demo, says 'I'll let you know.' You never hear back. No follow-up sequence means 60-70% of demo-attended leads never convert.
Tamil-first; English used in formal contexts. Hindi penetration low — voice/chat in Tamil non-negotiable.
Doggu's voice agent auto-detects Tamil, English, Telugu and switches mid-conversation if the caller does. WhatsApp templates can be approved in any of the languages your customers actually use.
Configurable reminder sequence per student (e.g. 5 days before due, on due, 3 days late). Each with a Razorpay/UPI link. Auto-marks paid in CRM. Collection rate jumps from ~75% to >95%.
Students/parents get a 12h-before reminder for every class. Cancellations broadcast automatically with reason and reschedule slot. Multi-batch support — each batch gets the right list.
Upload a test score, system auto-DMs the parent with the score, class average, and a comment. Builds trust without you doing the math each time.
5-message sequence over 7 days post-demo. Day 1 thanks; Day 3 testimonial from a similar-batch parent; Day 7 limited-time fee waiver if any. ~30% bump in demo→enrol conversion.
