Athletic Clearance Gatekeeper
A lightweight SaaS that centralizes athletic eligibility/clearance (physicals, consent forms, insurance, emergency action plans) and enforces hard-stop participation rules before practices/meets. It provides real-time clearance status synced from the trainer/health office, coach rosters, and volunteer check-in so no one can plausibly claim confusion. Built-in audit logs and incident-ready reporting reduce district liability and improve student safety.

Target customer
K-12 athletic directors, district athletics departments, and middle/high school sports programs (including coaches, trainers, and activity coordinators).
Problem-solution fit
Athletics clearance is binary and business-critical: if paperwork is missing, participation shouldn’t happen. Schools need a single source of truth with permissions, timestamps, and automated enforcement (not informal email/text claims) to prevent unsafe participation and to demonstrate due diligence if an incident occurs.
