Sound familiar?

Here is what changes when your ID workflow lives in one cloud platform.

Receiving a USB of photos from your photographer and manually matching each file to a student record in your SIS.

Upload the photographer's batch in one go. CaptrID matches by student ID, surname + class, or any field you choose, then bulk approves.

New enrolments and mid-year replacement cards waiting weeks for the photographer's next visit.

Capture in-house with a tablet, or send the parent (or adult learner) a self-upload link. New ID issued the same day.

Entra ID or your SIS roster never quite syncs — leavers still on the list, new enrolments missing.

Native Entra ID sync (Pro+), Okta and SCIM 2.0 (Business+). Filter by year level, campus, or department. Incremental updates run on a schedule.

Desktop ID card software locked to one machine in the IT office, with a licence that expired three years ago.

Browser-based. Any admin or front-office staff member can issue staff IDs, student replacements, or visitor passes from any laptop.

From roster to issued ID in one platform

Three steps. Browser-only. No software for IT to install.

Step 1

Sync staff & student rosters

Microsoft Entra ID, Okta, SCIM 2.0, or CSV. Group by year level, campus, or department.

Step 2

Bring photos in any way you work

Bulk import from your school photographer, capture in-house on a tablet for staff and replacements, or send self-upload links for parents and adult learners.

Step 3

Issue printed & wallet IDs

Print to your card printer for staff and senior students. Push wallet IDs to phones, no app required.

Common questions from schools

Can parents upload their child's photo themselves?
Yes. Send a self-upload link by email or SMS to the parent or carer. They snap a photo from any device, the system runs compliance checks (face detection, background, framing) and queues it for your approval. Reduces photo day absences and re-shoots significantly.
Will it sync with our Microsoft Entra ID tenant?
Yes. CaptrID has native Microsoft Entra ID sync on the Pro plan and above. Configure group filtering to pull staff and students separately, map any attribute (year level, campus, employee ID), and incremental sync keeps the roster current as enrolments change.
What about photo day on-site, with bad WiFi?
The mobile capture app works offline. Photos queue locally on the tablet or phone and upload automatically when connection returns. Useful for remote campuses, sports days, and excursions.
Can we bulk approve once photos are reviewed?
Yes. Filter your approval queue by year level, photographer, or session, and bulk approve in one action. Reject individual photos with structured reasons sent back to the parent or student to re-submit.
Can we switch mid-school-year from our existing tool?
Yes. Import your existing roster as CSV, upload your existing card art as a starting template, and reuse your existing card printer. Schools typically complete a switch in a single afternoon and keep printing the same week.
Where is the data hosted? Is it OK for government schools?
All data is hosted in Sydney (ap-southeast-2). Built for Australian Privacy Principles and data sovereignty requirements common to government schools, independent schools, and educational institutions. Audit log of every action retained for compliance.
