Build and adjust timetables with the people and spaces behind every class in view. Drag, review and coordinate your academic week.
Less chasing. Better planning.
More room to teach.
Your timetable is only as strong as the information behind it. Bring the people, spaces and academic context together, so every change starts with a clearer picture.
Spend more time planning.
Make the teaching week
easier to understand.
See scheduled teaching and workload in context before making another commitment.
Make decisions with
the wider picture.
Connect the timetable to academic operations, rather than piecing the story together from separate files.
Start with the way
your university works.
Your planning team should not have to reconstruct the institution every term. Bring departments, programs, courses and batches into one connected academic foundation.
- Keep the relationships behind every class clear.
- Give departments a common planning starting point.
- Move from scattered records to connected context.

A common starting point for every planning conversation.
A productive week
starts before Monday.
When a class moves, the effect reaches beyond one timetable cell. Plan with teacher, room and batch conflicts in view, then review the week before it becomes everyone’s working day.
- Adjust classes with familiar drag-and-drop planning.
- Check overlaps and availability before approval.
- Move from draft to review with a clear approval process.

Give reviewers the context behind the timetable.
Less uncertainty at the start of the academic day.
See the workload.
Respect the availability.
An open timetable slot tells only part of the story. Bring teaching hours, weekly capacity and faculty availability into view before deciding where the next class belongs.
- Review teaching workload against weekly capacity.
- Keep availability in the scheduling conversation.
- Support better-informed teaching assignments.

The class needs more
than an empty room.
A lecture hall, a specialist lab and a practical session have different needs. Bring room capacity, availability and equipment into the planning process so academic requirements and campus resources meet.
- Keep rooms and labs connected to academic planning.
- Review space availability and room conflicts.
- Consider capacity and equipment alongside the class.

A few things you
might be wondering.
Have a specific planning challenge? Bring it to your walkthrough and see how Griddly fits your institution.
Is Griddly just a timetable maker?
Timetabling is a central workflow. Griddly connects it to academic structures, faculty workload and availability, rooms, labs, equipment, batches, calendars and reporting.
Who is Griddly designed for?
University teams responsible for academic planning and campus coordination, including academic leaders, department heads, timetable coordinators and operations teams.
Does it replace our entire university ERP?
Griddly focuses on academic planning and operations. Admissions, student finance, payroll and other ERP functions are outside the scope described here.
Can we see it with our own planning scenario?
Yes. Share your institution and main planning challenge in the demo request. The walkthrough can focus on the workflows relevant to your team.
Does Griddly manage extra teacher duties?
Special tasks, such as exam invigilation and seminar support, are shown here as a proposed extension. The current faculty workflow covers teaching workload and availability. Task assignment and combined duty workload need to be confirmed before they are offered.
How does booking a demo work?
First, tell us a little about your institution. Your request is captured before the Calendly booking step, so the conversation starts with useful context.
What should we discuss before implementation?
Your academic structure, timetable process, roles, campus resources, reporting needs and existing systems. Data migration and integration requirements should be confirmed during evaluation.

your next academic plan.
