Question 1

Who is My Studio Helper for?

Accepted Answer

My Studio Helper is for owners and principals of small dance, music, and performing-arts schools.

Question 2

Does My Studio Helper replace our scheduling or billing software?

Accepted Answer

No. My Studio Helper sits on top of the scheduling and billing tools the studio already uses. The studio’s existing suite remains the system of record, while My Studio Helper reads that data and acts on it; it does not migrate enrollment data, re-key class rosters, or ask parents to download a new app.

Question 3

What work does My Studio Helper handle?

Accepted Answer

The published workflows include follow-ups for stalled trial families, rebook suggestions for thinly enrolled classes, payment reminders, and a morning revenue-and-attendance brief. For dance studios, the payment workflow includes costume deposits, recital fees, and monthly tuition; for music studios, the published workflows also include monthly tuition and recital-logistics communications.

Question 4

What does “always-on” mean?

Accepted Answer

My Studio Helper runs nightly routines that an administrative assistant would otherwise do the next morning: follow-up emails to stalled leads, payment reminders, class-fill recommendations, and the morning brief.

Question 5

Can the principal review or control what goes out?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Sensitive workflows can be set to draft-only so the principal approves them before they send. The principal also decides which conversations AI handles end-to-end and which ones escalate to a human at the studio.

Question 6

Will parents know when AI is involved?

Accepted Answer

Yes. My Studio Helper identifies itself in every parent touchpoint, and the principal decides which conversations AI handles end-to-end and which ones escalate to a human at the studio.

Question 7

How is student and family data handled?

Accepted Answer

My Studio Helper is FERPA- and COPPA-aware by design. It uses the minimum data needed for each action, the studio controls what data it can touch and owns its data, and student records for minors are treated with the restraint a careful office manager would apply in person.
