Andrew Peal has spent 14+ years inside IEP meetings as a special education intervention specialist, and 8 years as a behavioral specialist. He knows how your child's record was built, because building records like it was his job — so he built RoomRecord: the software that turns your family's own uploads and logs into that same kind of record, inside a framework built so every finding cites the regulation beside your facts, built to the standard attorneys and hearing officers read by.
Free for families. The assembled Evidence Packet is $99 per case, when you want it. Professional seats for advocates and attorneys: $59/mo or $549/yr.
RoomRecord opens first to a founding cohort — a limited first group of Ohio families, and the advocates and attorneys who serve them. Applying costs nothing and takes about five minutes. No payment is taken at this stage — founding members are invited in application order, after the exclusions screen below, when the product opens.
Districts keep a system of record for all of this. Until now, families kept a folder. RoomRecord turns your folder into a record — organized, counted, and cited, in the form the other side of the table already respects.
Software — not a course, and not a person you hire. You keep the record; the software does the organizing, the counting, and the citing:
Your Evidence Packet is built to the standard an attorney reads — formatted for the attorney you choose. If your situation needs a lawyer, we tell you plainly — and you walk into their office with your record already organized.
SAMPLE — fictional case, names and details invented. Before opening, RoomRecord was quality-tested on a complete fictional case, run through every module, then audited end to end — every number and citation recomputed against the record and the cited rules. The sample findings memo from that case — the same modules, the same checks, the same format your family's findings will use — is right here — read the complete memo before you apply, before any payment: Read the sample findings memo → It is labeled SAMPLE because it is one: we will never invent a client's story to sell this product, and when real families say yes, their words will appear here only with their permission.
F-1 · Promised vs Delivered — Over 8 weeks, reading was delivered at 1,200 of 1,800 written minutes (66.7%) and speech at 360 of 480 (75%) — a combined shortfall of 720 minutes (12 hours). (From the sample memo, fictional case RS-DRY-001.)
The school side — Andrew Peal, who built RoomRecord. Special education intervention specialist, 14+ years; behavioral specialist, 8 years. A teacher, still in the classroom, who has written the plans, kept the logs, and sat through the meetings your family is now preparing for. He is not an attorney and does not hold himself out as one; he is the person who knows how the other side of the table assembled your child's file — and he built that knowledge into this software.
The standard side. This product borrows no attorney's name; it builds to the published standard attorneys and hearing officers apply to a record — completeness, the seven notice elements, day-count method, variance against the written IEP — and shows its citations so anyone can verify. Every finding cites the regulation beside your own facts — checkable by you, your advocate, or any attorney you ever hire. The software itself was dry-run on a fictional case and audited end to end before opening. The software does the organizing and the counting; conclusions belong to the family and their chosen attorney.
The review. The Sprint's framework and family-facing documents were reviewed before launch by a licensed Ohio special-education attorney.
Andrew is not an attorney, RoomRecord is not a law firm, and nothing in this product is legal advice or representation: it does not speak for you, file anything for you, or communicate with your district. Records you keep in RoomRecord are not protected by attorney–client privilege and can be subject to legal process. No outcome is promised or predicted.
Advocates and attorneys generally charge by the hour, and organizing a record is ordinarily billed at those hourly rates. RoomRecord's family plan is free because the record-keeping itself is software — the organizing and counting a family used to have to hire by the hour.
The Evidence Packet is $99, one time, per case — the assembled, print-ready record, unlocked for that case when you want it. Professional seats are $59/mo or $549/yr — for advocates and attorneys whose clients share cases with them; packets for shared cases are included, and a seat starts with a 14-day trial, no card.
Applying is free and no payment is collected now. Nothing is sold on this page. When the product opens to the founding cohort, any paid option is priced inside the product, with its terms stated before any charge.
An advocate can — generally at hourly rates, if you can find one who isn't booked out. And advocates are exactly who RoomRecord's professional seats are built for. RoomRecord is the record underneath the advocacy: your family keeps it yourselves, and when you hire an advocate, they start from an organized record instead of a shoebox — the Evidence Packet is built to be handed over. RoomRecord doesn't replace an advocate; it makes the advocate you hire cheaper to use well. If an advocate sent you here, that's the design working.
An attorney can do much more — including the things this product never does: advice, representation, filing. Attorneys also bill $300–$400 an hour to organize records that arrive as a shoebox. If your situation needs counsel now (a deadline a filing must preserve, a hearing, retaliation), go to counsel — the product's own flags will say so too. RoomRecord is the preparation that makes every professional you hire afterward faster.
No — and the product was built so that line stays bright: it never states a legal conclusion about your child — it puts the rule, cited, beside your facts and leaves conclusions to you and any attorney you choose. RoomRecord organizes your record, states general rules with citations beside your facts, and shows the referral routes with honest tradeoffs. Where the record suggests something may conflict with a rule, the findings say exactly that — and the conclusion, and what to do about it legally, belongs to you and your attorney.
Two reasons you can check. First, the credentials are real and specific: 14+ years intervention specialist, 8 years behavioral specialist — school side; every finding cited to the rule beside your own facts, built to the standard attorneys and hearing officers read by. Second, this product was quality-tested before it opened: a complete fictional case was run through every module, then audited end to end — every number and citation recomputed. The sample memo from that case is on this site: read it here. We'd rather show you audited work than ask for faith.
The founding cohort serves Ohio families anywhere in the state — that is where the verified rule pack runs. If you are outside Ohio, ask when you apply: any acceptance outside Ohio is federal-rules-only, and every document would be labeled that way.
Start with the free tools (below). Gather what you can with the checklists in the product; a thin record is exactly what the free family plan is for — you build it as documents arrive, and the counts start working from the first entry.
Nothing is sent to your district by RoomRecord, ever. The product never contacts your school; what you share, and when, is your decision. One honesty note: records you keep — here or anywhere — can be subject to legal process in a formal dispute. That's partly their purpose (they are your evidence), but no one should tell you they're privileged, and we won't.
No — RoomRecord is software, not a person in the room. It prepares you: your record, your counts, your packet, organized before the meeting starts. Nobody from RoomRecord attends your meetings or speaks to your district on your behalf. (New Jersey families: record-review components only.)
Count the pickups, shortened days, and bus suspensions the way the federal framework counts them. Most families have never seen their own total.
Promised minutes vs. delivered minutes, service by service, in one page — the table families bring to the meeting.
