You decide who joins
Students join with your invite code and admission number. Upload your class roster as a CSV and matching students are approved automatically; the rest wait for your coordinator.
For schools
A book exchange your school controls
Every year, good textbooks are thrown away while families buy new ones. Bithoo gives your students a safe, school-only place to pass them on, and gives your staff the controls.
The dashboard
Everything on one screen
Your coordinator signs in on the web with their email, from any computer. No software to install.
Illustration with made-up numbers.
What you get
Built around how schools work
Moderation in your hands
Students report listings or users in one tap. Your coordinator resolves reports, removes listings and pauses accounts.
Your hand-over point
Choose where books change hands, such as the library or the front office. It is shown on every listing.
Parental consent, if you want it
Turn it on for your school, and students need a linked parent's approval to keep using Bithoo.
Private by default
First names only, contact details blocked, no ads or tracking. Personal details are visible only to your own coordinator.
Good for families and the planet
Fewer new books bought, fewer old ones thrown away, and juniors helped by seniors.
