Run the whole academy.
Stay audit-ready.
Baton is the operations and compliance platform built for Indian sports & coaching academies — students, fees and staff on one side; your books, payroll and tax filings on the other. Not adapted from a foreign tool.
Why Baton
The layer nobody else covers
Academies in India run on Excel, WhatsApp and a part-time accountant. The software that exists solves the front desk and leaves the hard part — the Indian back office — to you.
Scheduling, not the books
Bookings, attendance and payments — then they hand the accounting, payroll and tax filing back to you.
Priced in dollars, blind to India
Jackrabbit, iClassPro and the rest know nothing about 80G, TDS, Form 26Q, trust accounting or Indian payroll.
The back office, done right
Run the academy and keep audit-ready books, statutory payroll and CA-ready exports — in one place, in rupees.
What you get
Two halves of one platform
Take the base to run your academy; switch on the compliance modules as you need them. A module you haven't turned on simply isn't there — it never breaks the rest.
