Why families switch

Stop piecing it together from texts

Co-parenting is hard enough without screenshots, spreadsheets and “wait, who has them Tuesday?”

Before

  • Schedules buried in a long text thread
  • Receipts in a camera roll, IOUs in your head
  • Changes agreed by phone, then remembered differently
  • Allergies and teacher names known by only one parent

With Shared Thread

  • One calendar both of you see
  • Every expense logged, split and kept in balance
  • Changes requested and approved, with a clear record
  • Each child's essentials in one shared profile
Everything in one place

Built for the everyday logistics of two homes

Every tool you need to keep the kids' week running smoothly, and nothing that gets in the way.

📅

Home-night calendar

See whose home it is tonight and all month. Apply a pattern like week-on/week-off or 2-2-3 in one tap.

🔁

Swaps without the standoff

Ask to swap a night and your co-parent approves or declines in the app. Nothing changes until you both agree.

💵

Fair, clear expenses

Log costs with any split, see who owes what at a glance, settle up, and export a monthly statement as a PDF.

🎒

Events & school days

Practices, recitals, appointments and no-school days, including repeating events, on the same calendar.

🩺

Child profiles

Allergies, medications, teachers, sizes and bedtime routines, shared so whoever has the kids has the answers.

💬

Chat, photos & pets

A focused place to talk about the kids, share photos from your week, and track pet care too.

Plan together

Fill in the schedule, add events and expenses, and keep each other in the loop in the app.

Less friction, fewer surprises

Money and messages, kept calm and clear

Money and logistics are where most co-parenting tension starts. Shared Thread keeps both factual, visible and easy to resolve.

  • A running balance you both trustSee what's owed at any moment, and an opening balance carries over from month to month.
  • Edits need a yesChanging or deleting a shared expense sends a request first, so nothing disappears quietly.
  • Conversations stay on topicA dedicated chat for the kids, separate from everything else on your phone.
Private by design

Questions

Good to know

Is Shared Thread free?

Yes, it's completely free while we're in beta. No credit card is needed to sign up. If we introduce paid plans later, we'll tell you well in advance.

Does my co-parent need to sign up too?

Yes. Each parent has their own account, so you both see the same calendar and expenses and each approve changes. After you create your family, share the invite code and they join in a minute.

What happens if we don't agree on a change?

Nothing changes until both of you agree. A requested swap or an edited expense stays pending until the other parent approves it, and if they decline, the original stays in place.

Who can see our information?

Only the members of your family. Your schedule, expenses, messages, photos and child profiles are private to your family and protected by access rules on our servers.

Can I use it on my phone?

Yes. Shared Thread runs in the web browser on any phone, tablet or computer, so there's nothing to download. Tip: add it to your home screen for one-tap access.
