Homeschool Compliance App That Auto-Generates State-Specific Portfolios and Transcripts
Homeschool record-keeping requirements vary wildly across 50 states, from zero requirements in Texas to mandatory portfolios and standardized testing in New York and Pennsylvania. Parents juggle attendance logs, curriculum lists, work samples, and test scores manually. Blue Folder offers compliance checklists but not portfolio generation. Homeschool Planet has lesson plans but limited state-specific compliance automation.
The 50-state compliance database is the moat. Nobody wants to build and maintain it, which is exactly why it's valuable. Start with the 5 most regulated states (NY, PA, OH, MD, KY) where the pain is sharpest. The transcript generator is the premium feature parents will pay for when college applications hit.

Blue Folder handles the what-do-I-need question, Homeschool Planet handles lesson planning, and Freely handles portfolio display, but no single product handles the full pipeline: plan, track hours, organize evidence, and auto-generate the state-compliant portfolio or transcript. Parents stitch together 3-4 tools.
