TutorHive

TutorHive is a tutoring management platform for scheduling sessions, tracking students, invoicing, managing homework, and connecting with parents. It is intended for professional tutors and educational organizations, not for finding tutors or students through a marketplace. Its calendar supports recurring sessions and is designed to avoid double-booking; student profiles can hold goals, progress notes, attendance, and session history. Stripe and PayPal integrations are advertised, with payments going directly to tutors and zero commission. The parent portal provides access to attendance, notes, homework, and certificates in 10 languages. The Free Forever plan costs nothing and allows up to 2 students and 1 invoice per month. Pro costs $14 a month billed monthly, and Agency costs $29 a month billed monthly for up to 25 tutors. Agency pricing is $49/mo for 26–50 tutors, with contact required for 50+ tutors. TutorHive lists Android, iOS, and web platforms and describes mobile access through a PWA.

TutorHive brings tutoring schedules, student records, payments, and parent updates into one management platform. Its free plan is limited, while Pro and Agency add broader capabilities at listed monthly prices.

TutorHive suits professional tutors and educational organizations that need scheduling, student records, invoicing, and parent communication. It is not designed as a tutor-finding marketplace.

TutorHive suits independent tutors and education organizations that already have students and want one place for teaching administration. Its strongest case is a coordinated schedule, student record, billing and parent update workflow; the two-student free cap makes it a limited long-term option.

Overview

TutorHive is management software, not a marketplace for finding tutors or students. Recurring scheduling, student records, homework, invoicing and parent communication cover much of the routine around lessons. That breadth is useful for tutors consolidating administrative work, but Free is best treated as a small-scale starting point rather than a plan for a growing practice.

Key features

The calendar supports recurring sessions and is designed to prevent double-booking, a practical fit for tutors with regular lesson schedules. Student profiles can hold goals, progress notes, attendance and session history, helping keep a learner’s record alongside scheduling and homework rather than scattered across separate tools.

TutorHive advertises Stripe and PayPal integrations and says payments go directly to tutors with zero commission. For video lessons, tutors use their own Zoom, Voov Meeting or ClassIn accounts. TutorHive says it stores only the meeting link and does not access or record sessions; that separation suits instructors who want to keep video calls in tools they already use.

The parent portal shares attendance, notes, homework and certificates in 10 languages. That can reduce the need to relay every update manually, but it is a paid-plan feature. TutorHive also advertises human email support with a response within 24 hours and support in 10 languages. Its privacy policy says it does not sell personal information and addresses GDPR for EU/UK users and CCPA for California residents; it names Stripe, Supabase, Google Analytics, Netlify and Railway among its service providers.

Pricing

Free Forever costs nothing. It supports up to 2 students, a basic calendar, homework tracking, global holidays and 1 invoice per month. The cap and single monthly invoice make it restrictive for a working tutor, and it excludes session packages, the parent portal, whiteboard, certificates, and goal or mood tracking.

Pro costs $14 a month, billed Monthly. It allows unlimited students for 1 tutor and adds full scheduling, invoicing and payments, the parent portal, a booking website, and Zoom, Voov and ClassIn integration. This is the clearest fit for a solo professional who has outgrown Free and wants the main teaching and payment workflow without agency management.

Agency costs $29 a month, billed Monthly, for up to 25 tutors. It includes everything in Pro plus tutor and staff management, payroll tracking, an admin dashboard, priority support and a custom domain. For 26–50 tutors, the price is $49/mo; for 50+ tutors, pricing is custom. Agency pricing has a 12-month price lock and at most a 10% annual increase with 60 days’ notice. Its team controls make it the relevant tier for organizations, though a solo tutor has little reason to pay for them.

A 7-day trial is available. Free has no paid-plan features such as the parent portal, so the trial is the better way to evaluate the broader workflow before committing.

Platforms

TutorHive is available on Android, iOS and the web. Its site describes mobile access through a PWA, with instructions for adding it to the home screen in Safari on iPhone or Chrome on Android.

Who it's for

Choose TutorHive if you are a tutor or education organization with an existing student base and want scheduling, records, payments and parent updates in one management platform. Pro is the sensible starting point for a solo tutor who needs more than two student places; Agency is aimed at teams that need staff oversight and payroll tracking. Look elsewhere if you need a service to match you with tutors or students, or if Free must support more than two students and one invoice a month.

Pros and cons

• Pros: Recurring scheduling and student profiles bring lesson planning and learner history together.
• Pros: Stripe and PayPal integrations are advertised with direct tutor payments and zero commission.
• Pros: The parent portal supports 10 languages and shares attendance, notes, homework and certificates.
• Cons: Free is capped at 2 students and 1 invoice per month, and excludes several teaching and parent-facing features.
• Cons: Pro is limited to 1 tutor; organizations needing team management must move to Agency.
• Cons: Video sessions rely on tutors’ own Zoom, Voov Meeting or ClassIn accounts rather than a TutorHive-hosted call.

Alternatives

Tutoring Center Software is a broader category to explore if you want to compare management options. TuitionDesk is worth considering if you need a free plan for up to 10 students, unlimited batches, and fees, EMI, attendance, sessions and teacher login; it supports more platforms, including desktop operating systems, and has no free trial.

TutorOne offers a free plan for 1 tutor and 15 students, so it may suit a solo tutor who needs more free student capacity; its listed paid Starter plan is ₹199 a month. OneBookPlus is another freemium option, but its described features focus on invoices, quotes, a booking page, GST/ABN and pool logs rather than tutoring management.

Trakist may suit an iOS user looking for a free plan with unlimited students, scheduling, attendance, payments, progress tracking and iCloud sync. Tutitor is a free alternative with unlimited students, lessons and invoices and a 15 GB library, making it worth comparing if those limits matter more than TutorHive’s paid parent portal and agency features.

Tutr Desk offers a free plan for up to 10 students with attendance, fee management, scheduling and WhatsApp reminders. Tutorbase may appeal if you prefer no monthly subscription and accept a 1% fee when invoicing through the system. Wise is another paid tutoring-center management option to compare.

Verdict

TutorHive is a strong fit for tutors and education organizations that already have students and want a joined-up administrative workflow, especially when parent access and team management matter. Its main drawback is the sharp divide between Free’s tiny capacity and paid plans: choose Pro for a solo practice that needs room to grow, Agency for staff oversight, and look elsewhere if a usable ongoing free tier is essential.
