What KidCheck, Inc. does

KidCheck, Inc. is a privately held SaaS company headquartered in Boise, Idaho, that builds a cloud-based children's check-in and security platform for organizations serving children. Founded in 2009 and operating with 11-50 employees, the company sells primarily to churches, daycares, fitness and recreation centers, parks and recreation departments, and youth programs across the United States, with named customer activity also in Canada and Australia. The platform is offered in three monthly subscription tiers — Starter ($25), Plus ($45), and Premier ($60) per device — with optional Go Unlimited device licensing, and is supplemented by proprietary hardware (ExpressHub mobile printing device and the 2025-launched Check-In Station Pro all-in-one kiosk), a KidCheck Admin mobile app, and over 100 language options for check-in stations.

The technology stack is a web-based SaaS platform with iOS and Android apps, integrated label/badge printing, and rule-based logic for security features including matching security codes, watermark images, allergy and medical alerts, unauthorized guardian detection, automatic classroom load balancing, and time-limit tracking. Mobile Express Check-In (2024) allows parents to initiate check-in from their smartphones with badges auto-printing on arrival via ExpressHub, while a parent-maintained account model shifts database upkeep away from the organization. KidCheck integrates with church management software (ChMS) providers including Breeze, with PayPal Payments Pro for event registration, and with Protect My Ministry for volunteer background checks on Plus and Premier editions.

KidCheck's revenue model combines monthly recurring software subscriptions, hardware sales (ExpressHub, PrintHub, scanners, printers, labels, and keytags) through its own KidCheck Store, and an integrated referral-based background check service via Protect My Ministry. The company employs a hybrid sales-led/self-serve go-to-market, offering free personalized phone demos with screen sharing, free onboarding training, and live support six days a week including Sundays, alongside a self-serve signup path at go.kidcheck.com. Content marketing (blog, free child-safety eBooks and webinars, YouTube/Vimeo video content) and trade-show presence (Kidology, Kidzmatter, Plan to Protect) drive top-of-funnel demand. The company is independently operated with no disclosed institutional funding or parent company.
