ASC Timetables

What ASC Timetables does

ASC Timetables (legal entity: asc Applied Software Consultants, s.r.o.) is a Bratislava-headquartered, privately held software company that has built school scheduling software for approximately 30 years since its 1995 founding. Its flagship product, aSc TimeTables, uses a proprietary automatic timetabling algorithm that evaluates over 5,000,000 scheduling possibilities to generate balanced school schedules in roughly five minutes — a task the company positions against days of manual timetable work. Around this scheduling core, the company has assembled an integrated suite that includes aSc Substitutions (online cover-teacher management), a Class Register module with attendance tracking and parent notifications, a shared school Calendar, an ad hoc Room/Event Booking system, and a mobile application for teachers, students, and parents. Sub-brands such as EduPage extend the platform into broader school management. The core scheduling technology is algorithmic/heuristic in nature; the most recent AI work is an integrated generative-AI panel that accepts natural language commands to modify timetables and advise users.

The company serves educational institutions globally — primarily K-12 schools, high schools, and international schools — and claims a customer base of approximately 200,000 schools across more than ten language markets (English, French, Croatian, Portuguese, Italian, Polish, Hungarian, Czech, Slovak, Spanish, among others). Its go-to-market is product-led and direct-to-consumer: a freemium trial with full functionality except Export, a downloadable Windows PC application (perpetual one-time license), and Timetables Online (browser-based, multi-user cloud subscription). Sales-qualified leads are captured via a website contact form covering ~200 country selections. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. The platform is GDPR-compliant and hosted in ISO/IEC 27001-certified datacenters, with push notifications routed through Google and Apple cloud services.

ASC Timetables is bootstrapped — no funding rounds, acquisitions, parent company, or M&A activity are disclosed in the available data — and is led by CEO Jan Gottweis. Reported strategic posture is steady: incremental product releases (most recently PC Application Version 2027 in June 2026), addition of an AI assistant, continued investment in the cloud and mobile surface area, and ongoing multilingual/geographic expansion through localized websites rather than enterprise sales motion or inorganic growth.
