Made in Australia · For autistic children & their teams

A quieter record of your child’s day.

Recess is a private, Australian-hosted record of medication, behaviour, and classroom observations for children on the autism spectrum, thoughtfully separated so teachers see only what teachers need, and clinicians see everything you choose to share.

The gap we’re closing

Three people. Three notebooks. One child.

Parents remember what they can. Teachers email when they can. Clinicians reconstruct two months of behaviour in a six-minute appointment. Something has to give, and usually it’s the pattern that would have made a difference.

Parent
I can never remember if the irritability started before the dose change, or after.

Teacher
By the time I email home, I’ve already forgotten half of what happened.

Six minutes. Two months of behaviour. Decisions get made on memory.

One record, three lenses

Designed so nobody sees more than they should.

Abstraction isn’t a setting. It’s the architecture. Teachers and clinicians see fundamentally different data because the server builds a different response for each role.

Parents

You own the record. You decide who sees what, and you can revoke it at any time.

  • Full profile, medications, and logs
  • One-tap daily administration
  • PDF export for appointments
  • Audit of every view, always
Every consent you give is time-stamped, scoped, and revocable.

Teachers

A focused view built for the classroom. No diagnoses, no drug names, just the behavioural context that helps you plan the next hour.

  • Abstracted behaviour tags only
  • Log in the moment, not at 6pm
  • One class, the children enrolled in it
  • No medical history, by design
The product enforces the abstraction at the API layer, not the UI.

Clinicians

Medication changes overlaid on behaviour intensity. Two months of pattern, ready in the first minute of the appointment.

  • Full timeline with context filters
  • Medication vs behaviour overlay
  • Sign-able clinical notes, append-only
  • Share with parent or abstract to teacher
Recess is a record-keeping tool, not a prescribing or diagnostic tool.
Privacy, properly

Built for the Australian Privacy Act, the way your data ought to be handled.

Data residency in Sydney. Role-scoped access enforced server-side. A full audit of every read and every write. And, on principle, no child’s record ever enters a training pipeline.

Residencyaustralia-southeast1 (Sydney), with KMS-managed encryption at rest.
AbstractionTeachers are literally unable to query drug names or diagnoses.
ConsentEvery share is scoped, time-stamped, and revocable in one tap.

Aligned with the APPs and the NDB scheme. PIA documentation available on request for clinical and education partners.

Early access

We’ll invite small groups of families and clinicians first.

Australia-only beta opening late 2026. We’ll write once when your turn comes, and nothing else.

Parent · Teacher · Clinician. We’ll ask which when you hear back.
