Replace scattered group texts, email chains, calendars, signup tools, forms, and payment apps with one organized place for communication, scheduling, membership, registration, and payments. COMMUNICATE WITHOUT THE NOISE Keep important updates in a real-time group feed and everyday conversations in personal, small-group, or full-group chat.

Members can set notification preferences for each group.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN GroupSpot is built for high-trust communities, not public social media. There are no ads, no algorithms, and no public profiles. Groups are private and unsearchable, invitations are controlled, and GroupSpot never sells your data. ONE APP FOR EVERY GROUP Use GroupSpot as a sports team management app, club management app, school communication app, PTO or PTA app, nonprofit management app, volunteer coordination app, band or music group app, HOA management app, scouting app, family organizer, or private community platform. Create a custom group and enable only the tools your members need. Start a group in seconds. GroupSpot's free Starter plan includes unlimited members and essential tools for chats, events, RSVPs, signups, forms, registration, payments, subgroups, and much more.
