Community events, without the admin.
Assembly is event and community software for educational groups. It handles the scheduling, invitations, and coordination that co-ops currently run through group chats and shared spreadsheets.
The problem
Co-ops run on volunteer time, and most of it goes to logistics.
A single weekly meetup for forty families means tracking who's coming, who's bringing what, which rooms are booked, who has paid, and who still needs reminding. Today that lives across a group chat, a spreadsheet, and a long thread of text messages.
General-purpose event tools don't fit the shape of the problem. They're built around a one-off event with an audience of strangers — not the same community gathering week after week, where the roster barely changes and the coordination is constant.
The result is that the person doing the organizing spends more time on admin than on the thing everyone turned up for.
