# Tidal PTC

> Tidal PTC is an open source (AGPL-3.0) web application by Archboard for scheduling parent-teacher conferences. Admins and teachers create time slots; parents and guardians sign in (usually through PowerSchool SSO) and book them.

- It can be self-hosted (Docker or a VM) or bought as managed Cloud or Private dedicated hosting.
- Each district is a tenant; a tenant has schools, and users act within a current school.
- User types are staff, guardian (contact) and student. Staff abilities come from per-school permissions.
