# About Levitio – the people behind the app

> We are Luky and Ondra. We created Levitio in 2019 so leaders can spend more time with children. The story of the product, the team and the community.

## Levitio was born where people use it today.

In units and organizations where people give their time to children.

## We volunteered for the children, not for Excel.

We wanted to see what our work gives children, not spend evenings repeating the same admin tasks. From that need, Levitio was born in 2019.

Over time we found that a good tool does not only save time. It helps a team work with more certainty, collaborate better and pass experience on.

- **Born from a real need**: The first Levitio for units and clubs
- **A new foundation and the first big trust**: Levitio 2.0 and winning Impact First
- **One app for the everyday running of a unit**: Levitio 3.0 and Křišťálová Lupa TOP 10
- **A platform for parents, payments and community**: LevitioPay, the parent portal and further growth

## Technology should support relationships, not replace them.

Levitio exists so people around children keep more space for what matters. We are not only building an information system. We are creating a community tool for the everyday life of groups and clubs.

The child is the real impact.

## From routine to better conditions for children.
- Levitio looks after the small things and the important information
- Fewer things have to live in someone’s head
- The team works with more certainty and has more time.
- Parents have more clarity and trust
- Leaders have more attention and energy for the children
- Children have better conditions for their development

## How we design Levitio

Technology is a means for us. What matters is that it is safe, simple and actually helps the people around children.

- **Innovation**: We use modern, safe and reliable technology and practices when they let us do things better.
- **Simplicity**: We remove extra steps and routine so Levitio works for people who use it in the evenings, between work, family and the group.
- **Community**: Levitio should support cooperation and relationships between leaders, parents and children — not replace them.
- **Purpose**: We add features where they solve a real problem and make the everyday running of the organisation better.

## The most important part does not fit in a spreadsheet.

Parents across the country thank leaders for the time, care and energy they give to children.

- Děti se od počátku na každou schůzku moc těší. Jejich nadšení nepokleslo, naopak.
- Je úžasné, že existují organizace, kde se dítě může rozvíjet, je respektováno a současně posouvá své hranice.
- Cítí se vítáni, přijatí takoví, jací jsou.
- Moc vám děkuji za čas a energii, kterou klukům dáváte.
- Děkujeme, že děláš svět dětí lepším místem.

## Levitio in the media

Our story, how Levitio started, and how it has grown have appeared in Czech media.

- **CzechCrunch**: The origin of Levitio and the people behind it
- **Hospodářské noviny**: Levitio in the context of Czech technology projects
- **Markething**: An interview about communication and building the project

## We are not in this alone

Without these people Levitio would not exist. Thank you to everyone who helps us, often pro bono:

## Good work happens between people. Levitio is here to help them.
