Since phones stay in the locker, students look at the screens in school for what they need to know. Connect your Zermelo portal once and choose per screen what it shows: timetable changes in the hallway (cancelled lessons, room changes, substitutes and moved lessons per lesson hour), a door sign by every classroom with the lesson now and next, a board of the rooms that are free right now for students looking for a place to study, and the announcements from Zermelo. Everything follows Zermelo by itself.
Premium plugin, included in the Pro and Business plans. Free plan, no credit card required. Paid plans from €5/month. Plugin version v1.4, released 2026-10-21.

Cancelled, other room, moved and substitute, per hour or per class, with what it was before.
Quiet days fit one page; busy days turn pages by themselves, in step on every screen.
One classroom: the lesson now with a progress bar, the next one and the rest of the day.
Which rooms are free right now and until when, a cancelled lesson included.
The announcements from Zermelo along the bottom, or full screen one at a time.
From a time you choose, the next school day joins today; weekends and holidays are skipped.
Per branch and department, substitutes on or off, activities and exams included or not.
New changes appear within a minute, with the time of the last update in the corner.
In Zermelo under Beheer > Partners, add TVpilot, grant read access and create an API token.
Enter your portal name and the authorization code in TVpilot. The connection is checked right away.
Pick timetable changes, a door sign, free rooms or announcements, then add it to a playlist.
TVpilot reads the timetable through the official Zermelo API with read-only rights your school grants: lesson times, classes, subjects, rooms and teacher codes, plus the announcements. Student names and student data are never requested. Teacher codes and the timetabler's remarks can be switched off per board. The token is stored encrypted and only used by the server; screens never receive it.
TVpilot turns the hardware you have into a managed screen: an Amazon Signage Stick with the TVpilot app, a Raspberry Pi with one command, a Fire TV Stick or Android TV, or simply the browser of a smart TV. One player URL per screen, managed from the dashboard.
This is a Premium plugin: it comes with the Pro and Business plans. Start free with your first screen and upgrade when you add it.
Start on the free plan and stay there as long as you like. No credit card, no trial clock.
Yes. TVpilot connects the way Zermelo asks new partners to connect: the school adds TVpilot under Beheer > Partners, grants read access and creates the API token there. Schools on the older setup can use an API user with the right Lezen: Roosters en afspraken.
Within about a minute. All screens of one branch share one request to Zermelo, so the school portal is never flooded.
Yes, per board. The timetabler's remarks can be hidden too, for when they might contain names.
Boards keep working in the new school year: they follow the branch, not this year's timetable project, as soon as the new year is set up in Zermelo.
The Zermelo plugin is a Premium plugin, included in the Pro and Business plans.
Put Zermelo on every screen in your school: timetable changes per lesson hour, a door sign per classroom, the rooms that are free right now and the Zermelo announcements. Connected as a Zermelo partner, updated within a minute.
