We’ve rebranded to Obara — “The Operating System for Modern Education.” A fresh look across the app and a clearer story for the schools and families we serve. Same platform, sharper than ever.
Students can now generate practice quizzes straight from their teachers’ lesson notes, with instant scores and explanations. “Practice my weak areas” drills exactly what each student is struggling with, and a mastery view tracks progress over time — on the web and right inside the WhatsApp/Telegram bot.
Get started →Schools can now make selected exams available in the bot — perfect for mock tests and practice. Students answer one question at a time and get their score with a full review.
Turn a lesson note into a set of multiple-choice questions in seconds. The AI drafts; you review, edit and approve; approved questions drop into your question bank for real graded CBT exams.
Teachers can record scores, mark attendance, post lesson notes, set assignments and check their timetable and top students — all by chat. Parents can see fees, results and attendance, pay in chat, and even get their children’s login details. Everyone can just ask “who am I?”.
Server-enforced timers, one attempt per student, automatic submission when time’s up, and seamless resume if a student drops off — so computer-based tests are dependable for graded exams.
Choose light or dark to suit you, enjoy a refreshed dashboard, and use Obara comfortably on any phone.
Track teacher and student attendance with a QR kiosk, derive attendance automatically from clock-ins, and (on Enterprise) push live arrival and departure alerts to parents.
Every student gets a virtual account, fees are itemised, and online payments reconcile automatically. Parents can split a payment across specific bills — and the system asks how to allocate when it’s unclear.
Owners and admins can diagnose why a parent’s payment hasn’t reflected, apply a safe fix, and escalate to platform support — from the dashboard or the bot.
Configure an auto-numbering format (by class, year and school code) so new students get the right admission number automatically — still editable when you add a student.
