How a conversation runsOne thread, from a hello to a person who can help
A guardian taps the widget at 10pm, asks in Hinglish, gets a grounded answer, and the moment the question is about a specific child, a person picks it up. That whole arc is one thread — the same thread the school sees in its inbox.
1
Someone says hello
A guardian opens the widget on the school's site or app and types — or sends a voice note, because that is how a lot of people actually message. It auto-reads Hindi or English; the widget stays light so it loads on a 2G evening.

Zuci answers from facts
The helper answers from what the school has authorised — admission dates, the document list, the bus route — and nothing else. If a fee figure is not in an authorised table, it does not guess at one; it says it will get a person.

A person takes over
When a question is about one child, or Zuci is not sure, the thread hands off to a staff member with the full transcript already there. The guardian is not asked to repeat themselves, and a person is never kept out of a person's concern.

It stays one conversation
Web, in-app, WhatsApp, SMS — it is the same thread in the same inbox, so two staff never answer the same guardian twice and nothing falls through a channel gap.
