Students record their name by phone. Announcers hear the correct pronunciation through a Bluetooth earpiece at the ceremony. No more guessing. No more apologies. No more awkward pauses.
From list to live ceremony in three steps. No software to install, no devices to hand out.
Upload your graduate roster as a CSV with ID, name, division, and email. The app handles the rest.
Students dial your GradRecorder number, punch in their student ID, and say their name. About 30 seconds each.
At the ceremony, the announcer wears a Bluetooth earpiece. One tap plays each graduate's name in their own voice right before they cross the stage.
Everything you need to run a smooth, dignified graduation, and nothing you don't.
Students use any phone, any carrier. No app download, no account setup, no tech barriers.
Staff mark graduates as arrived on a phone or tablet. Only checked-in students appear in the announcer's queue.
The announcer hears each name discreetly, never fumbling through index cards or phonetic spellings.
Before the ceremony, announcers can rehearse through the full list to build confidence and flow.
Students who haven't recorded get a friendly nudge by email until they do. No chasing required.
See at a glance who has recorded, who hasn't, and who has been announced. Exportable to CSV.
Designed for the roles that actually touch graduation day.
Don't see yours? Ask us. We reply the same day.
No. Students call a regular phone number and record their name through the call. Any phone works: flip phone, smartphone, or landline. Nothing to install, no accounts to create.
The system sends friendly email reminders automatically, up to four times. For the small number of students who still don't record, announcers can practice from the text roster as a fallback, just like they do today.
A mobile phone or tablet connected to Wi-Fi or cellular data, and any Bluetooth earpiece. They tap a button per graduate; the recording plays in their ear; they then read the name aloud with confident accuracy.
Recordings are only accessible to staff at your school through an authenticated login. Data is tenant-isolated, so no other school ever sees your students. Sign-in supports Google Workspace or email with strong password requirements and 30-day "remember me."
About an hour. Upload your senior roster CSV, customize the reminder message, pick a date to start collecting recordings. We handle all the telephony on our end.
