Do I pay extra for additional children?
No. One subscription covers your entire family — no extra fees per student. Add as many children as you have.
Can my spouse or co-parent share the account?
Yes. Invite a co-parent from Settings — they get the same view of every child, their own sign-in, and edit access. One subscription covers the whole family workspace.
Do co-op features cost extra?
No. Every family plan includes the co-op tools — shared planners, meetings, RSVPs, and member invites. The separate co-op tiers exist for organizations that want to pay one bill covering their member families' subscriptions, so families in a sponsored co-op don't pay at all.
Is this just for Christian families?
The parable is part of our name and shapes how we designed the product, but anyone can use 10Talents. Scripture verses and the talents framing can be dialed down or turned off in settings.
Does it work for all grade levels?
Yes — from pre-K through 12th grade. The gradebook and GPA tools are geared toward high school record-keeping; younger grades use mastery tracking and narrative notes.
What is "Talent of the Week"?
Each Sunday the app picks one of your child's strengths — drawn from a curated library of human gifts (musical, logical, verbal, spiritual, leadership, and more). Over a year you build a real picture of where each child is growing, not just where they're scored.
Will it generate a transcript colleges will accept?
Yes. We export a standard format accepted by colleges and state agencies, with your school name, logo, and GPA calculated on a 4.0 or 5.0 scale. See our full guide: homeschool transcripts colleges take seriously.
What about state compliance?
Attendance logs, portfolio archives, and year-end exports follow common state requirements. Texas is fully supported today, with state-specific minimums and transcript fields for California, Florida, Oregon, and New York rolling out as we expand.
What does Maryland require to homeschool?
File the Notice of Consent (the MSDE notification form) with your county superintendent at least 15 days before beginning — once per child — then verify continuation each year before the school year starts. Teach English, math, science, social studies, art, music, health, and PE on a regular basis and of sufficient duration. There are no hour counts, no tests, and no teacher qualifications anywhere in the regulation.
County review or umbrella — which should we choose?
Under the default, you keep a portfolio (materials, reading lists, writing samples, worksheets, creative work, tests) and the county may review it at semester’s end, at a mutually agreeable time, at most three times a year — once or twice is typical. Under an umbrella (an MSDE-approved nonpublic school or a church organization’s program), the umbrella supervises and annually verifies your enrollment with the county, and the county conducts no portfolio reviews. Umbrellas charge fees and add their own expectations; the county route is free and maps exactly onto a well-kept portfolio. Either way, the portfolio is the asset — 10Talents accumulates it as you teach.
What does a review day actually look like?
A short, scheduled conversation over the portfolio: does the work show regular, thorough instruction across the eight subjects? Families who date their samples and keep a running reading list are in and out quickly. 10Talents’ portfolio export prints precisely that — dated, organized by subject, review-ready.
Can I import from another platform?
Yes. We can import from Gradelink, Homeschool Tracker, My School Year, Seesaw, and plain CSVs.
What happens when my trial ends?
Nothing is deleted — ever. Your records stay readable and exportable; new entries pause until you subscribe. Pick up exactly where you left off, whether that's day 15 or next semester.
How does the AI work, and is my family's data safe?
The AI reads the documents you choose to upload — a curriculum PDF, a photo of finished work — and drafts the lesson list or record entry for you to review. Nothing is saved without your approval, and we never sell your family's data. See our privacy policy.
Does it work on my phone or tablet?
Yes. 10Talents is built for the kitchen-counter reality of homeschooling — log attendance from your phone, snap a photo of finished work, check the week from the couch. Add it to your home screen for an app-like experience.
Can I keep my records if I cancel?
Always. Export everything as PDF, CSV, or a full portfolio archive before you leave — or any time.
