Co-parenting is hard. Your communication tool shouldn't make it harder. ParentPact is a co-parenting app with secure messaging and organization tools, built for separated and divorced parents who share custody. Every message is permanent, timestamped, and organized — so you can stop arguing about who said what and focus on your kids. A record you can trust Messages can't be deleted, and edits are limited to a 5-minute window for typos. ParentPact keeps a permanent journal of every conversation — timestamped and exportable as a clean, watermarked PDF, ready for your attorney or the court if you ever need it. Think before you send Our built-in tone checker reads your message before it goes out. If something reads as hostile, it gently suggests a calmer way to say it. Fewer regrettable messages. Less conflict. Everything organized by topic No more digging through a chaotic text thread. ParentPact sorts communication into clear channels: • Medical & Health • Education & School • Activities & Sports • Travel & Vacations • Legal & Court Orders • Emergency — and more One shared source of truth • Shared calendar for custody schedules, visitation, and appointments • Expense tracker so payments and reimbursements are never in dispute • One-tap export of your full message log, expenses, and calendar Built for real life after separation Whether you're navigating a new custody agreement, building a parenting plan, parallel parenting, or managing a high-conflict relationship, ParentPact gives you a neutral, structured channel that keeps the focus where it belongs — on your children.
