Turn your class schedule into your social superpower.
Connect with classmates, form study groups, and build community — all from a single upload.
Starting college means being surrounded by thousands of new faces, but actually turning those faces into friendships? That’s awkward and intimidating.
We realized every student already has a class schedule — so why not make it the easiest way to connect?
That’s where Skedulr comes in.
Skedulr transforms messy schedules into a social dashboard where students can:
- 👯 See who’s in your classes — instant icebreaker
- 📚 Form study groups — collaborate, not just cram
- 💬 Spark conversations — without the small talk
- 📊 Interactive dashboard — one glance shows overlaps and opportunities
- Frontend: React (Vite)
- Backend: Express.js
- Database: MongoDB Atlas
- Auth: Auth0 for secure authentication
- Schedule Parser: OCR + Google Gemini API (handles PDFs, ICS files, screenshots, messy images)
