Automated Remind Message Delivery Reconciliation

Every morning, WebRun opens Remind, checks delivery and read status for recent announcements, books a Google Calendar reminder to re-send to any group with a low open rate, and posts a digest to Microsoft Teams for office staff.

In short

How do I check whether Remind announcements were actually read by parents?

WebRun checks Remind delivery and read status for recent announcements every morning and books a Google Calendar reminder to re-send to any group with a low open rate. It posts a digest to Microsoft Teams for office staff, so important school messages get a second attempt instead of quietly going unread.

  • Low open rate announcements get a re-send reminder automatically
  • Office staff see delivery rates without checking Remind manually
  • Important messages get a second chance to reach parents

Built for school office staff · principals · front office administrators · district communications teams

Good to know

Questions, answered

Will it re-send the announcement automatically?

No. WebRun only books a reminder and reports the open rate. Re-sending or calling a parent is a decision office staff make.

What counts as a low open rate?

Whatever threshold you set for a group's read rate. Below that, it gets flagged for a re-send reminder rather than assumed read.

Does it work across multiple schools or grade levels?

Yes. It checks every group you give it access to in the same run, so one digest can cover several rosters.

Put this on autopilot.
