What does the Koydo Microschool OS cost, and what does it include?
The Koydo Microschool OS is an annual seat license that turns a Koydo family-app stack into a working school. Four tiers ship at launch: Starter (6-24 seats, $360 per seat per year, $1,200 platform fee), Standard (25-60 seats, $300 per seat per year, $1,800 platform fee), Co-op (6-24 seats, $240 per seat per year, no central platform fee), and Pro (25-200 seats, $360 per seat per year, $3,000 platform fee). Compliance packs for Texas, California, Florida, and New York ship at launch; the Compliance Advanced add-on covers remaining states plus Canadian provinces. This page is preregistered at v1.0 — the tier matrix is locked before the first operator cohort enrolls. Interim v1.1 publishes the first observed operator-cohort numbers once enrollment data is available.
Four annual seat-license tiers ship at launch. Each tier carries a per-seat annual price and a platform fee charged once per microschool per year. Monthly billing is available at a ten-percent premium versus annual.
Launch compliance packs cover Texas (HSLDA-style log of subjects and hours), California (Private School Affidavit), Florida (standardized testing alignment notes), and New York (IHIP-format quarterly report). The Compliance Advanced add-on covers the remaining United States plus Canadian provinces and ships fast-follow on a per-state schedule.
Every compliance export is a generated PDF plus a machine-readable JSON record, deposited to the koydo_microschool_compliance_export table and surfaced in the operator console with a non-skippable review step. The Compliance Steward owns the per-state review cadence; the compliance-pack-cadence reference page documents the quarterly review pass.
Add-ons are priced per-seat and bill annually alongside the seat license. The launch add-on set is intentionally small; additional add-ons are evaluated against operator demand and the Koydo product roadmap.
The tier matrix is locked before any first-party operator-cohort data exists. The preregistration framing is deliberate: it prevents Koydo from retroactively adjusting pricing posture in response to early-cohort feedback in a way that would silently move the public claim. Interim v1.1 publishes the first observed operator-cohort numbers (median seats per microschool, mean tier selection, compliance-pack mix) once at least ten paying operators have enrolled.
The methodology is variant-B preregistration: methodology locked first, observed data added in subsequent versions without retroactive eligibility changes. The pattern is the same one the Koydo NCLEX-RN Cohort Report uses; see /research/nclex-2026q2 for the canonical preregistration example.

Monthly billing is available at a ten-percent premium versus annual.
All Koydo K-12 binaries, the Parent and Teacher apps, the admin console, and compliance exports for Texas, California, Florida, and New York. The Starter tier is the baseline; Standard and Pro tiers extend it with multi-class management, full method library, white-label operator surfaces, and priority curriculum access.
Four states at launch: Texas, California, Florida, and New York. The Compliance Advanced add-on covers the remaining United States plus Canadian provinces and ships fast-follow on a per-state schedule prioritized by operator demand. The compliance-pack-cadence reference page documents the quarterly review pass.

Yes. One Koydo identity per student, with a microschool_seat_id annotation that ties the seat to its microschool. If a student leaves the microschool, the student keeps their account and Companion progression state. Gracious offboarding is a structural commitment; the Koydo Microschool OS seat-license design enforces it.
Interim v1.1 publishes once at least ten paying operator-cohort members have enrolled. The exact date depends on operator-enrollment pace; the Microschool Operator Steward publishes the target window to this page's version log when enrollment crosses the threshold.
