Stop losing
your family’s life
to school chaos.

The school letter. The WhatsApp RSVP. The trip deposit. They arrive everywhere, all at once - in a format that seems designed to be lost. There's a better way.

Which morning is yours?

Doing it solo

Sound familiar?

The group chat
is not a system.

It’s the painful workaround. Nobody loves it. Everyone tolerates it. Because nothing better existed.

Without Donza

The class group chat · 11:04 pm
🚨 Phil forgot his maths book. Can SOMEONE please send page 52?? It’s 11pm and he has homework due!! Anyone?? PLEAAASE
Sandra 👍
Mehmet 🙏🙏🙏
Karin Thanks Mrs Weber for the wonderful year!! You’re the best!! 🥳🥳🥳
Sandra ❤️❤️❤️
Jutta Totally agree!! 🌟🌟
Hello?? Phil is still waiting… 😭

WhatsApp treats a thumbs-up emoji with the same urgency as a school closure. So parents do the only rational thing - they mute the group. And then Phil suffers. Donza is built differently.

With Donza

Critical Wakes you up
“School closing early - pickup by 2pm” · “Phil needs page 52 right now”
Important Real-time push
“Trip permission slip due tomorrow” · “Klaus hasn’t confirmed the pickup”
Standard Morning brief only
“New announcement from Room Parent” · “Erik’s party RSVP due this week”
Social Always silent
“Thanks Mrs Weber!! 🥰🥰” · Reactions · Thumbs-ups · Emoji chains

Two parents, the same notifications, double the anxiety for half the reason. It’s a design problem, not a character problem. When Donza buzzes, it means something.

How it works

Chaos in. Calm out.

1
Throw anything at it
Any channel works.
Email forward Photo + OCR WhatsApp paste Voice
2
AI makes sense of the mess
Donza reads the raw chaos and pulls out what matters - events, RSVPs, payments, forms to sign, things to buy. Tagged to the right child. Automatically.
3
Donza handles the next step for you
Your RSVP reply is drafted. Birthday gift ideas are ready. Payment details extracted. A reminder set before the deadline. You confirm. Done.

The effort doesn’t shrink. It gets shared. Until it almost disappears.

Per-parent effort on school admin in a typical class of 25 families. Illustrative.

How Donza helps

It doesn’t just organise.
It actually does things.

Party replies, sorted
Drafts your accept and decline replies in a warm, natural tone. Ready to send in one tap.
Birthday gift ideas
Four age-appropriate ideas, ready to browse. No more blank-staring at a search box the morning before the party.
Payment reminders
Extracts the amount, who to pay, and the deadline. No missed trip deposits.
Permission slips
Spots permission slips and tells you exactly what to sign, how, and by when.
Things to buy
“Bring a cake tin” Donza finds it, you decide. Done before you forget it.
Calendar sync
Every extracted event lands in your existing Google or Apple Calendar automatically.

You can't do it alone.

The permission slip is crumpled at the bottom of a school bag. Your kid forgot it exists. But Emma's mum saw hers - photographed it at the kitchen table - and zack: it's in every parent's Donza.

"But how can I be that parent if my kid is that kid?" You can't - alone. That's the point. With Donza it's not all on your shoulders. You're part of a village. One parent captures it, every parent sees it.

The Class Village

Stop relying on the WhatsApp group for fragmented answers. One person adds the event; the entire class is on the same page.

The Household Village

Split family or unequal load? Information flows to all guardians automatically. One source of truth, zero forwarding.

The Extended Village

Grandparents and babysitters get a simple, account-less link for the afternoon. No app download required.

Family portraits

The families we built this for.

Composite portraits, drawn from our research and conversations with real Austrian families.

The organised one
You're still drowning - because the problem isn't your system, it's the volume.
Martina, 41

„I missed the RSVP deadline for the summer party. Again. The email got lost in the flood. With Donza, these things land exactly where they belong - in my weekly plan, not my inbox."

Martina, 41 - Vienna - Doctor, mother of two
Structurally excluded
The school has one primary contact. It isn't you. You still want to be an involved father. These two facts are in permanent conflict.
Thomas, 44

„Mia came to me on a Friday evening and mentioned - casually, over dinner - that she was going on a school trip at seven o'clock on Monday morning and needed 35 euros and wellies..."

Thomas, 44 - Vienna, 13th District - IT Consultant, shared custody
Prisoner of the spreadsheet
You said yes to „class rep" thinking it meant one meeting a year. You now run what is effectively a small events company. Unpaid. On WhatsApp.
Klaus, 46

„The class has 24 families. I coordinated the Christmas party through a WhatsApp group where seven people have their notifications muted, two have left and rejoined twice, and one responds to everything with a thumbs up regardless of what it said. I am a tax advisor. The class parents nearly broke me. The RSVP tracking, the volunteer slots, the budget management - I genuinely thought Donza had been built specifically for my situation. It may have been."

Klaus, 46 - Wien-Leopoldstadt - Tax advisor, class rep since 2022

From our early-access families

„If this had existed when my kids were in Volksschule - my god. I carried all of that in my head for years. My children are teenagers now, probably too old to start. But I’m sending it to my sister. She has two in Volksschule. She needs this.“
Early-access parent · May 2026, shared with permission
„Stefan and I divided the kids between us - one each. Exactly because we didn’t have Donza.“

Our story

Built mid-crisis.
Not after a happy ending.

I am not the organised parent. I am the other one. For years, our family’s school life arrived everywhere, all at once - in a format that seemed designed to be lost - and the weight of carrying it quietly ground us down. So I built the thing that catches it.

Not as a startup. As a survival tool.

Privacy & security

Your family’s data
belongs to your family.

Privacy designed in from day one, not added later.

Raw messages are never stored
Donza reads your email or photo to extract the event. Then it deletes the original. What stays is the structured data - the date, the amount, the RSVP. Not your inbox.
Your children’s sensitive information stays on your device - encrypted, private, yours.
Medical details, emergency contacts, allergy information - encrypted on your device using your key. Donza’s servers store only the ciphertext. A breach cannot expose this data.
Child data never crosses household boundaries
Mo’s information is visible only to Mo’s linked households. Not to other class parents. Not to the Room Parent. Not to anyone without explicit permission - ever.
GDPR-native, hosted in Europe
Built for European families from the ground up. Your data lives on European servers. You can export everything or delete your account completely - including all derived data - at any time.
Built by someone who spent 15 years making medical software safe enough for life-critical decisions. Privacy isn’t something we added. It’s where we started.

Every app is designed to keep you on the screen. Donza is designed to get you off it.

We succeed when you spend less time with us - and more with your kids.
