What LessonLoop is

LessonLoop brings lesson scheduling, attendance, invoicing and a parent portal into one system for music schools. Its calendar handles multiple teachers, rooms and locations, along with group, recurring and substitute lessons. Billing supports family accounts, automatic invoices, card payments and Bacs Direct Debit through the school's own Stripe account; invoices and payments sync one-way to Xero. Teachers can optionally see external busy blocks from Google Calendar as a private overlay. LoopAssist drafts administrative actions for confirmation, while the ChatGPT, Claude and MCP connector is read-only. The native iOS app is aimed at parents and light staff use, and the maker says the web app works on any device. Guided migration and full CSV export are available on every plan. The maker says data is hosted in the EU and protected in line with UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018.
