Built by a Teacher
The Story of HomeRoom
HomeRoom wasn't built in a boardroom. It was built in the moments between recess duty and the morning math block.
20 Years in the Classroom
Hi, I’m Jeff. I’m currently in my 20th year teaching elementary school. I know exactly what it feels like to have 15 tabs open by 7:30 AM, managing a mountain of digital overhead when you just want to get ready for the day.
I started building a simple tool for my own classroom to cut the digital clutter and focus on what actually matters: teaching.
From My Room to Yours
When colleagues saw how it simplified my workflow, they wanted in. HomeRoom quickly grew into a tool for educators who are tired of tech for tech's sake. It's a powerful tool, and an authentic purpose.
HomeRoom isn't another app for students to get lost in; it’s a command center for you. It organizes your day so you can stay on top of the work and—most importantly—leave work at work.
Our Values
- 🛡️ Privacy First We don't mine data. Your data stays yours.
- ⏳ Time is Sacred Every click saved is more time for your classroom.
- ⚡ One-Time Ownership Subscriptions suck, so I created a local storage option that you can buy once and own it. No endless subscriptions. If you choose the subscribe to the Cloud & AI option in your second year—thank you! This fee simply pays for the AI credits and web hosting costs.
Close the tabs. Teach the class. Leave work at work.
