Calyxa session data flows into a Google Sheet that tracks each student's weekly activity. Every Friday, Mailchimp automatically sends a personalized progress email to each parent — topics covered, time spent, and any areas that need more practice. You get zero parent emails asking 'how is my child doing?' because they already know.

Step 2: Connect Calyxa so session data populates the sheet automatically after each student login.
Step 3: Build a Mailchimp email template with merge tags that pull each student's data from the sheet.
Step 4: Schedule the Mailchimp campaign to send every Friday at 3 PM — parents get a weekly snapshot with no manual effort.

See PlansMailchimp is best for small business owners who want to send email and SMS campaigns without needing a marketing team. You get a drag-and-drop email builder, ready-made templates, and automated messages that go out on their own — like welcome emails or abandoned cart reminders. It connects with tools you already use, like Shopify, QuickBooks, and Canva. Whether you run a retail shop, a service business, or a nonprofit, Mailchimp gives you the data to see what's working and adjust fast.
Google Sheets is a great fit for any small business that needs to track data, build reports, or collaborate on numbers without paying for extra software. You get a full-featured spreadsheet in your browser, on your phone, or on your tablet — no installation needed. Your whole team can work in the same file at the same time, and every change is saved automatically with a full version history. It connects with tools you likely already use, like Salesforce, Asana, and QuickBooks, and it opens and edits Excel files without a hitch.
Calyxa is a Chrome extension that puts an AI tutor directly on top of your homework, not in a separate chat window. Instead of copy-pasting problems into ChatGPT and getting a ready-made answer, you ask Calyxa while your assignment is open — it annotates the actual page, talks you through the steps by voice, and builds a study kit from each session. It supports Khan Academy, Canvas, Google Classroom, DeltaMath, and more.
