About RoundUp

Childcare software,
built inside a working center.

RoundUp LLC builds RoundUp alongside Swift Start's two centers in Oregon. Swift Start is RoundUp's first customer and the place it was built.

RoundUp · Lining up after recess.

The RoundUp mark: four kids lining up after recess.

Why RoundUp exists.

At 7:30 on a Tuesday, a director has a parent at the door, a teacher out sick and a toddler room one child away from its ratio limit. Most centers handle that moment with a paper sign-in sheet, a separate billing tool and a group text.

RoundUp puts check-in, live ratios, billing and family messages in one app on every staff phone. The ratio warning shows up before the room is out of ratio, not after.

Every workflow in the app started as a problem a Swift Start director hit on a real morning.

How we build it

Three rules we build to.

One app on every staff phone.

Check-in, ratios, billing, family messages and compliance paperwork in one place, instead of three tools and a clipboard.

Set up for your center.

Your room names, ratio rules, tuition schedule, late-fee policy and branding. Oregon OCC ratios, Spark QRIS and ERDC subsidy exports are built in. Other states' rules are set up during onboarding.

Prices in public.

Every plan and add-on price is on the pricing page. Card and bank payments run at standard Stripe rates, with no RoundUp markup.

Reliability

Drop-off can't wait for a server to come back.

RoundUp runs on managed AWS services in the Oregon region, replicated across several data centers, with continuous backups and point-in-time recovery. Failover to a second region is planned but not yet in place.

99.9% uptime target on every plan · written SLA on Multi-Site. Details on the home page and in Privacy Policy §8.

Who builds RoundUp

RoundUp LLC, with a real center as its first customer.

RoundUp is built by RoundUp LLC in Oregon. Swift Start, which runs two childcare centers in Oregon, is its first customer. Its directors, teachers and families use RoundUp every day, and what they run into is what we fix next.

What we hold ourselves to, as a workplace and in the product, is on our commitments page.
