For schools

We help schools bring presence back.

One platform, two ways to go phone-free: a verified phone-free school day (a simpler, cheaper alternative to lockable pouches) and rewarded phone-free events. Your staff scan the ID badges students already carry. You see compliance and turnout from one dashboard.

Two ways to use NIX

One platform, two ways to go phone-free.

Run a simpler phone-free school day, reward presence at events, or both. Same app, same dashboard.

All day

A simpler phone-free school

A lower-cost, no-pouch alternative to lockable phone bags. NIX helps your school verify a phone-free day at the door, with every scan logged for compliance. Nothing to buy, distribute, or replace per student.

At events

Reward presence

Students choose to leave their phones behind and earn instant coupons for showing up present. Positive reinforcement: no confiscation, no friction.

How it works

Verified presence, automatic rewards.

Three steps. No new hardware, no manual attendance, no honor system to police.

  1. Students join

    Students download the NIX iOS app and sign up with their school student ID. Setup takes seconds.

  2. They leave the phone behind

    Students leave their phone in the car or locker. The NIX app reports the phone's location, and a per-event geofence confirms the phone is away. Real presence, not the honor system.

  3. Rewards happen automatically

    Whoever's running the scanner, staff or student volunteers, scans the student's ID badge at the event, confirms the phone's away, and hands them their reward coupon.

What you get

Everything your school needs to go phone-free.

Built for the administrators and staff who have to make it actually work, on a school morning and on game night. Not just look good in a pitch deck.

Native iOS app

One app for students and a built-in scanner mode for whoever runs the door, staff or student workers. No extra hardware to buy or maintain.

Geofenced verification

Presence is confirmed by location, not trust. Set a per-event fence and let NIX handle who counts.

Real-time analytics

Track turnout, engagement, and trends across events from a single admin dashboard.

Reward coupons

Hand students a reward coupon when they check in phone-free. On-the-spot printing is built in for when you want it.

Seat-based team management

Invite sub-admins to help manage events. Scanning runs off the event code, so staff or student workers can run the door without using a seat.

Works with existing student IDs

Scans the barcode on the badge students already wear. No new cards to print, no QR codes to design. Day-one rollout, zero hardware overhead.

Built for schools

More presence. Less screen time. Less work for staff.

NIX gives students a concrete reason to look up and show up, and gives your team a system that runs itself once it’s set up.

Compliance you can show a board
Every scan is logged. Daily attendance and phone-free compliance in real time, ready for a board or district report.
Higher event turnout
A real reward for showing up turns optional events into ones students actually attend.
Genuine presence
Phone-free verification rewards students for being in the moment. Together, not on a screen.
Effortless to run
Set up an event, hand the code to anyone running the door, staff or student workers, and let NIX verify and reward. No spreadsheets, no clipboards.
