## Description

**Subbey** helps public, private, charter, independent schools, and preschools manage substitute teaching with less phone tag. Schools keep their own trusted substitute pool, post jobs in seconds, notify available substitutes instantly, and fill coverage when the first qualified sub accepts.

Substitute teachers can receive job alerts, claim assignments with one tap, review lesson plans, chat with school staff, and manage their schedules from one app. Administrators and teachers can also hand-pick which substitutes see specific jobs and view the school’s coverage calendar. Subbey is built by a teacher and does not charge per-day fees or staffing markups.
