University residential operations & campus services
Connected hostel and campus management for universities in India
A connected campus needs residential operations, digital mess and cafeteria, campus payments, smart IDs and access control to work alongside institutional systems. FretBox provides a premium, configurable operating platform; CampusOS expands the scope and intelligence, while Pratyak provides AI classroom attendance.

Two questions worth clarifying
Can the university choose a phased rollout?
Discuss the starting services, existing systems and campus readiness with the FretBox team. The proposal defines the products, modules, connections and implementation scope.
What support continues after go-live?
Paid plans include priority support through a dedicated campus WhatsApp group and support tickets. Large Scale adds an ongoing onsite FretBox coordinator.
