The family dashboard on a tablet: the time and weather over a photo, today's calendar, each kid's homework, and buttons for each kid's chores and the family's lists. — The family dashboard, on the kitchen wall

Family · The wall

Any iPad or smart screen becomes the family board

Open it on the screen, type the code your phone shows you, and it stays on. The time and the weather over your photos, what is on today, each kid’s homework and chores, and the family’s lists, all big enough to read from across the kitchen. It runs in the web browser, so there is nothing to install.

Your family’s Google calendars in one place, with the next seven days a tap away
Lists anyone can add to: on the wall, on a phone, or by asking Siri
A chore ticked on the wall still waits for a grown-up to say yes
Never signed in to anything, and switched off from your phone if it ever goes missing

Pairing a screen from the phone: an eight-character code to type on the tablet, the screens already paired, and the Siri setup for adding to a list by voice. — Pair a screen with a code

The week on the wall tablet: seven columns, one per day, each with that day's events as cards. — The next seven days, a tap away

Kids · Money

A real allowance and a pretend bank

Allowance arrives every week on its own. Interest grows what isn’t spent. The cash in a pocket counts too, and the only way it earns interest is to hand it to a grown-up.

All their money up front: the bank plus cash on hand
A goal, with a few friendly ideas for how to get there sooner
Where the money went, and how long the goal will take at this rate
Parents see both kids side by side and can fix a mistyped entry

A kid's money screen: all her money, the bank and cash on hand, a camera goal 69% there, and two ideas for getting there sooner. — A kid’s money, on the phone

The parents' money page on a laptop: both kids side by side with bank, cash, earned and spent, and buttons to adjust the bank or fix the cash. — Both kids, for the parents

Kids · Chores

Tick it off; a grown-up says yes

The week’s chores on one grid, a box for each day. A tick is waiting until a parent approves it, and the allowance grows the moment they do.

Up to $5 a week, scaled by how much of the week got done
One Approvals inbox for chores, homework, workouts and cash handed over
Parents add, rename and remove chores; nothing rotates on its own
A push to the parents when something is waiting, and to the kid when it’s approved

A kid's chores for the week: this week's allowance so far, what is waiting for a grown-up, and a grid of chores by day with ticked and pending boxes. — The week, on the phone

The parents' Approvals inbox on a laptop: chores, a workout and a homework item waiting for each kid, each with an approve button. — One inbox for everything that needs a yes

Kids · Homework

Homework, straight from the teacher’s files

Paste the link to the class sheet or doc once. The week’s homework appears on each kid’s own list, with its due days, and is re-read through the day.

No school account, no key, no stored secret: it reads what anyone with the link can download
A teacher who emails instead? Forward it to homework@in.dfive.us
Kids tick, parents approve; the importer changes the list and never touches a tick
Parents see both kids and who has finished what

A kid's homework for the week: three items with their due days, one ticked and waiting for a grown-up. — Her list, her ticks

The parents' homework page on a laptop: both kids' weeks side by side, and the classroom apps each kid is sent to. — Both kids, for the parents

Parents · House

Forward anything about the house and it files itself

Quotes, invoices, receipts, the closing paperwork, a contractor’s reply halfway through a negotiation: email it to home@in.dfive.us, or cc the address on a message you’re sending anyway. It is read into the right house, the right job and the right vendor, and a reply says where it went.

Jobs with their quotes side by side, the vendors, and what each house cost this year
A maintenance calendar per house: what is due, when it was last done, and a reminder that repeats
A remodel, room by room: each room’s quotes side by side, against its budget
Everything kept whole, encrypted with the family’s key; it asks only when it must

The House inbox on the phone: the forwarding address, a reminder that needs a yes or no, and what is coming up for each house. — The house file, on the phone

A tree-work quote on a laptop screen, read from a forwarded email: the amount and deposit, how long it is valid, what it includes, and the vendor's message. — A quote, read from a forwarded email

Parents · Ask

Everything about the house, one question away

Every quote, invoice, receipt, warranty and report you forward stays in one place, read and filed as it arrives. To find something, ask the way you’d ask a person. The answer comes back in a few lines, with the emails and documents it came from a tap away. When the file doesn’t say, it tells you so.

“Who did the bathroom, and what did they charge?”
“How much have we spent on the house this year?”
“When was the water heater last serviced?”
“Where’s the roof warranty?”

Asking the house file on the phone who did the bathroom and what they charged: the contractor, the total, and the deposit and balance with when each was paid. Then a follow-up about when the water heater was last serviced. Each answer has the email it came from. — Ask, then ask a follow-up

Asking on a laptop how much was spent on home improvements this year: each job with what was paid and when, the total, what it left out and why, and the emails it read, each one a button. — This year’s improvements, added up
