Overview

DreamzTech designed and developed Podkeeper, a comprehensive community pod management platform serving organizations that need centralized tools for member coordination, event planning, and group communication. The platform enables pod administrators to manage member directories with parent and child information, create and coordinate events with RSVP tracking, facilitate threaded discussions, share files and documents, organize volunteer sign-up lists, and synchronize activities with external calendars.

This case study is NDA compliant and does not disclose any client identity.

Challenges

  • Scattered communication across email chains, text messages, and social media made it difficult for group members to stay informed about activities and updates.
  • Manual tracking of event RSVPs and volunteer sign-ups using spreadsheets led to confusion, missed commitments, and duplicate efforts.
  • No centralized member directory with contact information forced organizers to maintain outdated lists and chase down current details.
  • File sharing through email attachments resulted in version control issues and documents getting lost in crowded inboxes.
  • Lack of integrated calendar tools meant members had to manually add events to personal calendars, leading to missed activities and scheduling conflicts.

How the platform works

  • Create and configure pod Organizer creates a new pod, sets up group details, and configures member permissions and notification preferences.
  • Invite and onboard members Organizer sends invitations via email, members accept and complete their profiles with contact information and family details.
  • Schedule events and activities Organizer creates events with dates, locations, and descriptions, then enables RSVP tracking and volunteer sign-up lists.
  • Engage through discussions and files Members participate in threaded discussions, share documents and images, and stay informed through the activity feed.
  • Sync and stay connected Members save events to personal calendars, receive notifications based on preferences, and access all pod information from any device.
