How is ORCA different from other coaching apps out there?

Most coaching apps are built around email and booking links. ORCA works through WhatsApp, which is where coaches and parents in Singapore actually talk. Invoices, progress reports and appointment confirmations all go there, and the AI scheduling assistant handles bookings and rescheduling through chat so parents never have to log into anything.

Do I need a credit card to start?

Nope. The free plan needs no payment details at all. You only add billing info when you decide you want to upgrade.

How does ORCA make me look more professional to my swim families?

Everything a parent receives is clean and consistent. Appointment confirmations, progress reports, invoices and receipts all arrive on WhatsApp looking polished and put together.

Can ORCA help me get paid more reliably?

Yes. It tracks every billing cycle per student, sends invoices to parents on WhatsApp with a PayNow QR, and shows you at a glance who is still outstanding.

What results can I expect?

Invoices go out branded and on time, progress reports that used to take an hour take a few minutes, and parents can book or reschedule lessons directly through WhatsApp with the AI scheduling assistant. Over time the consistent communication and professional delivery helps coaches build a recognisable brand with their families.

I coach both private lessons and group swim classes. Does ORCA handle both?

Yes. Private lessons and group classes live in the same calendar. You can track each student individually within a class and notify all the families at once when something changes.

Is my students' data safe?

Yes. Student profiles, guardian contacts and payment records are encrypted and stored securely. We never share your data with third parties and you are always in control of what gets sent to parents.

What happens to my data if I cancel?

Your account and all associated data including student records, invoices and reports are permanently deleted when you close your account. If you just want to stop paying, downgrading to the free plan keeps everything intact.
