The #1 Problem in Flight Training

80% of Your Students Will Drop Out.
We Fix That.

Rotate gives your flight school a student retention platform with progress tracking, AI tutoring, gamification, and at-risk alerts — so more students finish their certificates and you keep more revenue.

The Problem Nobody Is Solving

Flight schools lose billions in revenue every year to student dropout. Existing tools focus on content — not retention.

How Rotate Keeps Students Engaged

Six tools working together to keep your students studying between flight lessons.

📊

Student Dashboard

Visual progress tracking across all subjects. Students see exactly where they stand — what they've mastered and where they need work.

🚨

At-Risk Alerts

Get notified the moment a student stops studying. Intervene before they disappear — not after they've already quit.

🤖

AI Tutor (24/7)

Students get instant answers to their questions at 2 AM before a test. No more waiting until the next lesson to clarify concepts.

🔥

Gamification & Streaks

Daily streaks, badges, leaderboards. Turn studying from a chore into a habit. Students come back because they don't want to break their streak.

✈️

2,200+ Practice Questions

FAA official questions plus practice questions across all subjects. Real exam simulation with detailed explanations for every answer.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Rotate and how does it reduce dropout?

Rotate is a student retention platform for flight schools. We combine progress tracking, gamification (streaks and badges), AI tutoring, and at-risk alerts to keep students engaged between flight lessons. Schools using engagement tools like these typically see 30-50% improvement in completion rates.

What's included in the free trial?

The 30-day trial includes full access to the student dashboard, 2,200+ practice questions, gamification features, and at-risk alerts for up to 25 students. No credit card required.

Do students need to pay anything?

No. The school pays per-student and students get free unlimited access. Students join via a simple invite link — no app download required, it works in any browser.

How do students join my school on Rotate?

Each school gets a unique join link (e.g., rotatepilot.com/join/your-school). Share it with students via email or your LMS. They create a free account and are automatically enrolled in your school.

Can I see my students' progress?

Yes. The school admin dashboard shows every student's study activity, scores by subject, current streak, and a risk indicator (green/yellow/red) based on recent activity. You can also receive automatic email alerts for at-risk students.

We already use SheppardAir / Gleim. Why would we need Rotate?

SheppardAir and Gleim are great for test prep content, but they don't track student engagement or alert you when someone is about to drop out. Rotate complements those tools by adding the retention layer — progress visibility, gamification, and AI tutoring — that keeps students coming back.

Do you integrate with Flight Schedule Pro or other management software?

Not yet, but it's on our roadmap. Currently Rotate works as a standalone study companion. Your students use it alongside their regular flight training schedule.

What subjects and question types do you cover?

We cover all 13 ATPL theory subjects plus FAA-specific question banks (PPL, Instrument, Commercial, ATP, CFI, Mechanic, Remote Pilot). Questions include detailed explanations and are tagged by topic for targeted study.
