For teachers & professors

Too sick to teach.
Too sick to write sub plans.

Store your class once. On the morning you can't come in, one tap builds your complete sub packet — schedule, seating, routines, dismissal, your own emergency lessons — and sends it to your office. Built from your class. Never generic.

Free to set up. Your first packet is free. Student names are initials only, always.

ChatGPT is too generic.
TpT packs are someone else's class.
Planners lock you in.

SubPacket does the one job none of them do: it remembers your class — your schedule, your seating chart, your dismissal chaos, where the passes live — and assembles the packet from it. No re-typing. No migration. No inventing.

"I have to be at death's door before I'll call in sick. I hate writing sub plans that much."
"I'm a specials teacher — I see a new class every 40 minutes. My sub binder is a phone book."
"At 5am with a fever I'm digging through a Google Drive folder I made in August. It's never complete."
"The sub never gets the dismissal list right because it's in three different places."

The packet

This is what your sub opens.

"Thank you for being here today — everything you need is in this packet. The schedule, routines and dismissal plan are exactly how my class runs every day."

01

Set up once — with an assistant

Chat with the setup assistant, or just dump what you already have: last year's sub binder, old plans, your schedule, a syllabus. It pulls out the facts, shows you what it found, and saves only what you confirm. A few minutes, mostly from one paste.

02

Wake up sick. One tap.

The button says Build & send my packet. One tap assembles today's packet from your saved class — and sends it to your office, the way your school actually works. Sent confirmation, timestamped. Back to bed.

03

Your sub opens it

Printed at the office, attached to your absence in Frontline, or opened from a link — no login, big and obvious at 7am. Professors: your TA gets the cover packet and your students get a ready-to-post announcement.

The honest comparison

Private by design.

Initials only — no full student names, no photos, no health records. The assistant converts full names to initials automatically and tells you when it does. Your data is yours: export or delete it anytime. SubPacket is not a district system and never will be.
