Two families. One very familiar problem.
“Every year, evaluation week turned into a weekend project — sorting through camera rolls, reconstructing months of work from memory, formatting a binder at 11pm.”
Between the two of us, we have kids in elementary, middle, and high school. We use a mix of curriculum, co-ops, and self-directed learning. And every single year, we faced the same scramble. We’re also software professionals — which meant we had exactly zero excuses for not fixing it.

We built it for Florida first because that’s where we live and where we know the requirements cold. We’re homeschool parents first, and we have no interest in adding complexity to an already full life.
We use this every day.
The best part of building your own tool is that you’re your own most demanding user. Every feature in this app was born out of a real moment in our homeschool day — something that was too slow, too stressful, or too easy to forget.
Marcus Tardif
I’ve been homeschooling my son since 2025. By day I build software — which meant I had exactly zero excuses for not automating the part of homeschooling I dreaded most. Homeschool Portfolio is what I actually wish I’d had when we started.
We’re based in Tarpon Springs, Florida. When we’re not hitting the books, you’ll find us out on the water, on the golf course, or cheering on our 12-year-old at whatever sport he’s into that week.
Chris Friedman
By day I work as an account executive. By evening, I’m homeschooling four kids — from kindergarten all the way through high school. When Marcus and I started talking about the portfolio problem, I knew immediately: this was the tool our family needed.
We made the move from Indiana to Palm Harbor, Florida a couple of years ago and haven’t looked back. We’re fully embracing the Florida lifestyle — and when I can sneak away, you’ll find me on the golf course.
Parents know their kids best.
The AI drafts. You decide. Every suggestion in the app is editable because you were there and the algorithm wasn't.
Compliance shouldn't be a weekend project.
Florida's portfolio requirement exists for a reason. We built a tool that satisfies it completely — without turning your homeschool into a paperwork exercise.
Built for real life.
Real homeschool days are messy and full. The capture should take thirty seconds, not thirty minutes. If it's not fast, it won't happen.
