Calm communication with your ex. A clear custody schedule. Shared expenses without arguments. BeNice is the co-parenting app for separated and divorced parents in the Netherlands and Belgium, so WhatsApp is for friends and family again.
WHY PARENTS CHOOSE BENICE
- Protection on both sides: the Feedback Coach helps you write calmly, the Filter keeps emotions, blame and insults from your ex-partner out of your inbox.
- Works even if the other parent does not join: with Solo mode your ex receives your messages by email, while you use BeNice with the Filter.
- For every kind of parenting after divorce: co-parenting, parallel parenting, solo parenting or a blended family.
- A Dutch company focused on privacy and safety: we cannot read your messages, we do not sell your data, and we work under the GDPR.
SOUND FAMILIAR?
- A message from the other parent hits hard and your evening is ruined.
- You sometimes reply more sharply than you want to, and regret it later.
- You lose track of handovers, appointments and belongings.
- You no longer know who paid what for the children.
- The other parent refuses to use any app at all.
That is why BeNice exists: calm coordination and a clear plan for separated parents.
CALM COMMUNICATION WITH YOUR EX
- The Feedback Coach reads along before you send and helps you make a message calmer and clearer.
- The Filter protects you as the receiver: blame and harsh words are removed, the facts remain.
- The Cooldown protects you both against flooding, nagging or repetition.
- So contact with your ex-partner stays short and businesslike, even in a high-conflict divorce.
CUSTODY SCHEDULE AND SHARED CALENDAR
- The custody schedule shows in color where the children are: weekly, every other week or any rhythm that fits your parenting arrangement or care plan.
- School holidays and public holidays for the Netherlands and Belgium are imported automatically, with a preferred parent per date, so you see at once what needs arranging.
- Want to swap days or change the schedule? Send a swap request with where, what time and who drops off and picks up. Once accepted, it is in the shared calendar right away.
EXPENSES: WHO PAYS WHAT
- Scan a receipt, Expenses fills in the details and applies your split.
- You see who paid what and what still needs settling. Share the costs of the children without discussion.
SOLO MODE
- You use BeNice, the other parent receives and answers your messages by email.
- The Filter and the Feedback Coach keep working for you.
BENICE COACH
- Always available for a quick check-in about your child, your ex-partner or a difficult moment.
- Focused on separation, parenting after divorce and blended families.
AND MORE
- Shared information: clothing sizes, addresses, phone numbers and documents in one place.
- A shared photo album, so you stay involved when the children are with the other parent.
- A first draft of your parenting plan (ouderschapsplan), which you finalize with a mediator or lawyer.
