Absence management software that keeps the whole record straight
Automatic attendance on the front end, amendments and dispute workflows on the back end — everything logged, everything auditable.
Auto-captured absences
If a student doesn't scan during the session window, Autotend marks them absent. No manual input required.
Amendment requests
Students submit an amendment with a note and (optional) document. Instructors approve or reject with one tap.
Dispute workflows
A clean back-and-forth for edge cases, fully logged so nothing gets lost in email.
Audit-ready history
Every change to an attendance record is captured with who, when, and why — ready for accreditation or HR.
Frequently asked questions
What's the difference between attendance tracking and absence management?+
Attendance tracking records who showed up. Absence management is the whole lifecycle — what counts as absent, how students contest a mark, how instructors approve or reject amendments, and how the final record gets audited.
Can students dispute an incorrect absence?+
Yes. Students can file an amendment request directly in the app with an optional note and document. Instructors review and decide in one tap.
Is the audit trail truly tamper-proof?+
Every change to an attendance record is appended to an immutable history log with timestamp, actor, and reason. The original record is never overwritten.
Does this work for staff too?+
Yes — the same workflows apply to staff rosters. See our staff attendance page for a walkthrough.
