FocusNest

Homeschool, simplified.

A focused study environment with an AI tutor, curriculum integration, grades dashboard, and compliance tools — built for homeschool families.

Everything a homeschool family needs

Kiosk study sessions

Students check in by subject and work inside a locked, distraction-free timer. They can't leave without a parent PIN — and the session logs everything automatically.

Curriculum integration

Set a URL for each subject in the parent dashboard. When your student starts a session, their curriculum site opens automatically in a locked side pane.

Pip — AI study companion

Pip is a Socratic AI tutor built into every session. It never gives direct answers — only guiding questions. Students can even share their screen so Pip can see exactly what they're working on.

Focus music

Upload your own tracks to the parent dashboard. Pip plays them automatically during focus sessions — shuffle, skip, and volume controls built in.

Grades & portfolio

Track per-subject averages, GPA, standardized test scores, and portfolio items. Connect any online curriculum and grades flow in automatically via email.

Compliance engine

State requirements are built in. Track attendance days, hours, document expirations, and generate a polished year-end PDF narrative.

Desktop app available

Built for the Mac.

The FocusNest desktop app runs in full kiosk mode — no distractions, no escape. The curriculum site opens right beside the timer. Parents unlock everything with a secret shortcut only they know.
