Little Oats is a small, calm desktop app for parents who teach their own kids. No accounts in the cloud. No screen-time goblins. Just a tidy place to keep grades, books, calendars, and reports — together.
OatSmart is the desktop companion to Little Oats. It runs locally, works without internet, and quietly handles the parts of homeschooling you don't want to think about.
Your records, learners, and grades stay on your computer. We can't see them — and we don't want to.
Plan a school day from a cabin in the woods. No login walls, no spinning loaders.
We homeschool four kids. Every feature is something we wished existed and then built ourselves.
One small download, no installer drama. Open it like any other app on your computer.
Generate beautiful report cards and transcripts you can hand to your district without apology.
No notifications, no streaks, no FOMO. Just a tidy place to teach your children.
We tried four other planners before this. OatSmart is the first one that didn't try to turn our school day into a video game. It just gets out of the way and lets us teach.
Download OatSmart and use it free for 14 days. If it fits, it's $6.99/month per family — no per-child fees, no upsells.
Free for 14 days, then $6.99/month per family. One small app — no installers, no plugins, no internet required after install.
