AI · 2026 for international schools & the families they serve

C'est noté. We've got it.

C’noté is the calm AI between your school's inbox and your WhatsApp. One short note a day — what your child did, what's coming up, what needs you. Nothing to install. Nothing to check. Only what's true.

This is what parents see

Three weeks of school, distilled.

C’noté is not a portal or a parent app. It's a chat thread that's actually useful. These are illustrative examples — not real families.

Why it's different

AI, in service of one calm note.

C’noté reads what an email means, not just what it says. That's why one short WhatsApp message can replace an evening of inbox-scanning — and why parents don't have to translate, summarise, or guess. And it only ever repeats what the school actually wrote.

01 · true

It's true, or it says nothing.

C’noté only ever repeats what the school actually wrote, links each point to its source, and refuses to guess. When it doesn't know, it says so and points you to the office. An assistant that invents things about a child is worse than none — so ours can't.

02 · language

Five languages, your tone.

English, French, German, Spanish, Italian — five languages live today, more on request. Translated in context, not literally. A warm note stays warm. A polite reminder stays polite. The school's voice arrives intact in the language each parent actually reads at home.

03 · europe

In Europe, end to end.

Hosting in France, AI inference in Paris, nothing trained on your data. A stronger data-residency posture than the US-based tools many EU schools can no longer clear. It reassures — after the value has already landed.

Every parent-facing message is grounded in the school's actual emails and carries a source link — when C’noté isn't sure, it says so rather than guessing. The full security pack and data-flow diagram are part of the trust pack — read it here.

How it works

Three steps. Then we get out of your way.

No new platform for teachers. No download for parents. The school keeps doing what it does — C’noté just makes sure parents receive it.

01 · setup

Your school forwards its parent comms

A 10-minute setup. Your school forwards parent emails to a private yourschool@cestnote.ch address — class trips, sick notes, schedule changes, the lot. No account to set up, no sign-in, no access to your inbox.

02 · intelligence

We do the reading for you

Every email is summarised, prioritised, and matched to your child. Urgent stuff comes instantly. Everything else waits for your daily digest.

03 · delivery

You read one WhatsApp

In your language. At the time that suits you. Ask a follow-up question right in the chat — C’noté replies.

Built by a family, for our own family first — used every day since March 2026. We'd never ship our own children a tool that invents things about them. That standard — right every time, honest the moment it isn't sure — is the whole product.

Common questions

Answered plainly.

Why the name?

C'est noté — "duly noted" in French. The phrase a teacher writes back when they've read your message. We borrowed it because that's the feeling we want to give you about your school's communications: it's been noted. Nothing important got missed.

Is parent data safe?

Yes. C’noté operates under the formal data-processing contract that Europe's data-protection law (GDPR) requires of any tool handling parent or student data on a school's behalf. The agreement is also aligned with Switzerland's federal law (nDSG). All personal data is hosted on European infrastructure. Nothing is transferred to the United States, and no school data is ever used to train AI models. See our trust pack →

Do parents need to download an app?

No. C’noté delivers updates inside the WhatsApp parents already use. No new account, no portal for everyday use, no password to forget. There's nothing to install and nothing to learn — adoption is immediate.

Does C’noté use AI? Is my school's data used to train it?

Yes — C’noté reads your school's emails to summarise them, and its AI runs on European servers (never US-based). It only ever repeats what the school actually wrote and links each point to its source. Your school's emails are never used to train any AI model — this is contractually guaranteed. Full detail is in the trust pack — read it →

What languages does C’noté support?

Five live today: English, French, German, Spanish, Italian. Each parent picks their own language independently of what the school writes in. More languages ship on customer request.

How long does setup take?

An afternoon. The school forwards its parent comms to a private yourschool@cestnote.ch address — no account to set up, no sign-in, no access to your inbox — uploads a list of parent contacts, and assigns children. C’noté handles the rest. Real updates start flowing within 24 hours of signing the legal agreement.

What does it cost?

One annual contract per school, priced on your enrolled students, with the rate dropping at each volume tier. There's a free 30-day pilot for your first cohort — no card, no commitment. See pricing →
