Otii
Built for UK early years

Less panic.More calm.

Otii makes good daily practice visible, accountable, and easy to talk about when the inspector walks in — without adding more to your plate.

The problem

The framework changed.
The support didn't.

Settings across the country are working harder than ever to interpret new requirements, rebuild their systems, and prove they're meeting expectations they weren't given a roadmap for. Ofsted said it wouldn't mean more paperwork. For most settings, it has.

01

Deciphering the framework

EYFS, KCSiE, the SEND white paper, Working Together — understanding what each framework actually requires, and translating that into daily practice, shouldn't need a consultant. But for most settings, it does.

02

Building it from scratch

New logs, new processes, new documentation. Settings are creating systems that should already exist — cobbled together across spreadsheets, shared drives, and WhatsApp groups with no audit trail.

03

Proving it on the day

When the inspector arrives, the evidence of good practice is buried in folders, inboxes, and filing cabinets. The work is there. Finding it in 24 hours isn't easy.

Good daily practice, built around the frameworks — so the evidence is always there when you need it.

How it works

Set up once. Ready every day.

A little time spent setting up properly means hours saved every week — and no scrambling when it matters most. No IT team. No lengthy implementation.

The platform

Everything in one place, mapped to what matters.

Every area an inspector looks at — not as a checklist, but as a living system your whole team can use every day.

Inspection area 01 · Safeguarding

Safeguarding & child protection

Concern logging, structured escalation, policy library, and DSL documentation — all mapped to KCSiE 2025 and Working Together 2023. Built for the whole team, not just the DSL. Because a genuine safeguarding culture starts at practitioner level.

  • Concern logging with full audit trail
  • Injury recording with heatmapping — patterns trigger alerts automatically
  • Structured escalation pathway
  • DSL documentation and records in one place
  • Tools that equip every member of staff, not just senior leaders
Inspection area 02 · Inclusion

Inclusion & SEND

A structured SEND register and assessment framework mapped to current government guidance — and aligned to the expected outcomes of the forthcoming SEND white paper. Supported by an AI assistant that helps your team understand the framework and know the right next step for any child.

  • SEND register — structured and always current
  • Structured assessment mapped to government guidance
  • Intervention log with outcomes tracking
  • AI assistant for SEND framework guidance and support
  • Review dates and key documentation in one place
Inspection area 03 · Welfare

Children's welfare

Daily checks, accident and incident logs, complaints, risk assessments, and maintenance tracking. The regulatory base that feeds Welfare, Leadership and Safeguarding.

  • Daily room, safety and welfare checks
  • Accident, incident and complaint logs with severity tracking
  • Risk assessments — logged, reviewed, and evidenced
  • Maintenance tracking so nothing gets missed between checks
  • Certificate expiry alerts — DBS, first aid, gas, fire
Inspection area 04 · Curriculum

Curriculum & teaching

Most settings have a curriculum. Few can articulate it clearly — to a new member of staff, to a parent, or to an inspector. Otii helps you capture how your setting actually works, share it consistently, and keep it live.

  • Curriculum intent documented across all EYFS areas
  • Staff induction — your curriculum, your way, from day one
  • Parent-facing version for settling-in and website
  • Inspection reference — your curriculum story, ready to share
Inspection area 05 · Staff

Staff Hub

From the moment someone is recruited to their day-to-day supervision — everything in one place. A live Single Central Record, safer recruitment checks, inductions, supervisions, and DBS and certificate expiry alerts before anything lapses.

  • Live Single Central Record (SCR)
  • Safer recruitment checks and documentation
  • Staff inductions — tracked and evidenced
  • Supervision records — logged and reviewable
  • DBS and certificate expiry alerts — staff and setting
Inspection area 06 · Policies

Policies & procedures

Every policy in one place — uploaded, version-controlled, and accessible to your whole team. Staff confirm they've read each one, every acknowledgement is time-stamped. And an AI assistant means no one needs to dig through a folder to find what they need.

  • Policy library — all in one place, nothing in a shared drive
  • Version control and annual review reminders
  • Staff read-and-sign tracking with full audit trail
  • AI assistant — staff find what they need instantly
Inspection area 07 · Reports

Reports & evidence

A fully customisable reporting tool designed to be genuinely easy to use — no technical knowledge needed. Your data, the way you need it, at the touch of a button. Pre-built reports ready to go, or build your own in minutes.

  • Pre-built reports across all inspection areas
  • Fully customisable — build exactly what you need
  • Designed for non-technical users
  • Risk data visible at a glance
  • No importing or exporting required
Inspection readiness

Ready for any inspection.
Announced or not.

24 hours' notice — always, never less. Otii surfaces exactly what you need, exactly when you need it. No scramble, no panic.

Pre-announced

Announced

The moment notification lands, Otii generates your prioritised action list, flags any gaps, and builds your evidence pack. Every team member gets a role-specific briefing.

  • Auto-generated evidence summary
  • Staff alert & briefing pack
  • Gap analysis against EIF themes
  • Printable compliance overview
Inspector on site

Unannounced

No notice, no panic. Every document, record, and policy is one search away — ordered exactly how an inspector will ask for them.

  • Instant evidence retrieval
  • Real-time readiness score
  • Role-specific access (DSL, SENCo, owner)
  • Offline access on mobile
From the sector

What people are saying.

Early feedback from settings, managers, and sector professionals who've seen Otii in action.

“Finally some good news in early years.”
“The attention to detail is insane — in a good way.”
“We were about to hire someone to map all of this out for us. Now we don't need to.
“I think you've thought of everything.
“This is what the sector has needed for years. Where has it been?
How Otii fits

Otii works alongside what you already use.

Most settings already have a management system and a finance tool. Otii is the third piece — the compliance layer that's been missing.

No rip-and-replace. No IT project.
Import what matters. Leave the rest.
One login. Unlimited users. Every role covered.

Do I have to stop using my NMS?

No. Otii sits alongside your existing Nursery Management System. Your NMS handles registers and billing. Otii handles everything Ofsted actually inspects you on.

How many staff can use it?

Everyone. Otii is priced per setting, not per user. Owner, manager, room leader, apprentice — everyone gets access with the right permissions.

Is the data secure?

Yes. GDPR-compliant, UK-hosted, encrypted at rest and in transit. ICO registered: ZC096557. Stuart Graham is our appointed DPO.

What about unannounced inspections?

Otii has a dedicated Unannounced Inspection Mode. Anyone can activate it — the manager is alerted immediately and all staff are notified automatically.

The team

Humans in the loop.

AI assists. People decide.

At Otii, every tool, every output, and every piece of guidance has a human accountable for it. Built by people who've worked in early years, run operations at scale, and sat across the table from an Ofsted inspector. The AI helps. The humans make sure it's right.
