    Teachworks and Volty

    Parents ask to move a piano or tutoring lesson and question a monthly invoice, and Volty offers the same teacher's open Teachworks slots and explains charges.

    What Volty does with Teachworks

    Teachworks is scheduling, billing and management software for tutoring centers and music schools. Volty reads lessons, students and invoices through the Teachworks API, available on the Growth and Premium plans. A parent whose child has a dentist visit Wednesday gets Mr. Chen's open times and moves the piano lesson, and a family surprised by November's invoice sees why.

    • Same teacher, new time

      Volty offers the student's own teacher's open times this week.

    • Invoice math shown

      Lesson count and rate, read from the family's invoice.

    • Family taps to confirm

      A lesson moves only once the parent picks a time.

    • Your makeup policy

      Requests outside it go to the office to decide.

    An invoice question

    Michael's November invoice is higher than usual.

    Why is November's invoice $240? We usually pay $192.
    Called TeachworksInvoice Nov · 5 lessons × $48 · Paid $0
    VoltyHi Michael, November has five Tuesday lessons for Chidi at $48 each, so the invoice is $240. Most months have four, which is $192.

    As an automation

    Describe it to Volty in a sentence; it drafts the automation and an admin turns it on.

    How Volty connects to Teachworks

    Teachworks turns its API on per account, on the Growth and Premium plans. Our team builds Volty's connection with the token you generate, and your admin approves it before families are answered.

    1. 01

      Enable the API

      In Teachworks, open Account & Settings, then Integrations & Add-ons, and enable the API.

    2. 02

      Generate the token

      From the API's Manage page, choose Generate API Token.

    3. 03

      Agree the tools

      Lessons, students, families and invoices to read, and whether lessons may be moved.

    4. 04

      Approve and switch

      Your admin approves the connection. Rescheduling starts Off.

    The tools Volty gets

    Each one is a switch on the Sources page in Volty.

    • Match familyReads
    • Read upcoming lessonsReads
    • Read teacher's open timesReads
    • Read family invoicesReads
    • Move lessonChanges

    Reading tools can be turned on straight away. Anything that changes Teachworks starts Off, and once on it can be set to check with staff, so each change waits for a colleague.

    Common questions

    Which Teachworks plans include API access?

    Teachworks offers its API to companies on the Growth and Premium plans. An owner turns it on from the Integrations & Add-ons settings and generates the API token there, which our team uses to connect Volty to your lessons and invoices.

    Will Volty move a lesson to a different teacher?

    Only to the teacher the student already has, unless your office says otherwise. Volty offers that teacher's open times this week, and the lesson moves once the family taps one, if you have the reschedule tool switched on.

    Does Volty handle makeup lesson policy?

    Volty follows the policy you write into its instructions, such as how much notice a family must give. When a request falls outside it, Volty tells the family the office will decide and passes the thread on.

    How much does it cost to connect Teachworks with Volty?

    Every Volty plan includes seats, active contacts and AI credits and starts with a free 7-day trial, and the plan prices are on voltade.com/pricing. Meta bills message charges separately for WhatsApp, Instagram and Messenger.
