TroopGuard

Check-in software that never leaves the room.

TroopGuard tracks who's here, who can pick them up, and whether two-deep leadership is covered — running from a USB drive, with no check-in data sent anywhere else.

What it does

CHECK-IN

Scan a card, or search a name

Youth and adults check in and out by scanning the QR on a member ID card, or by searching last names when there's no card handy.

RELEASE

Only the right people collect a child

A parent releases with one click. Anyone else on the approved list needs a confirmation. A flagged record locks the quick list — collecting requires typing a name and a leader PIN, so there's always a record of who it was.

TWO-DEEP

Coverage tracked from the moment the sheet opens

A banner shows whether two-deep leadership is met, and clears the moment it is — matched to how your organization actually counts a household.

ROSTER

One roster, kept in sync

Import a member CSV export, edit in place, and re-import later without duplicating anyone or losing what a leader already typed in.

Why it runs from a drive

There's no account to create and no server to trust. The whole app — and every record it keeps — lives on the USB drive you plug in. Nothing is uploaded and nothing needs a connection to run — the only thing the app ever looks up online is a small public file naming the latest version. Nothing about a child's check-in ever has to leave the building it happened in.

Paper stays the fallback. Print the roster — the night the laptop dies is the night it matters. — from the TroopGuard working agreements

Built for Trail Life USA troops

Made by a Trail Life troop, for Trail Life troops — with the vocabulary, roster format, and printed forms leaders already use.

Trail Life USA

  • Youth called Trailmen
  • Adults called Registered Adults
  • Imports the TrailLifeConnect CSV export

Try it yourself

A fake-data sandbox, not connected to anything — this is roughly what a leader taps through at the door. Resets if you reload the page.

Sample roster — no real names, nothing saved.

Check in a Trailman before confirming two adults are present.

    TroopGuard runs the same way for any troop willing to keep it on a drive instead of a server — reach out and we can talk through what it'd take to set up, or grab the Windows installer directly.
