Sharehouse vs Waffled

Sharehouse keeps a house that several people share running smoothly — without the group text. One household, one place for everything: • Calendar — who's staying and when, with overlap warnings so two families don't book the same weekend • Maintenance — what needs fixing, who's handling it, what's already done • Expenses — what was spent on the house, and by whom • House Vault — WiFi, lock codes and utility contacts, so nobody has to ask again • Bringing — who's bringing what on the next trip • Visitors — guests coming, cars, pets • Feed — updates and alerts everyone sees Private and invite-only. You join a house with a six-character code from someone already in it. There is no public feed, no discovery, and nothing is visible to anyone outside your household. Built for the place everyone uses and nobody wants to argue about — a shore house, a cabin, a family home shared between households.

Waffled is the calm command-center for family life. One shared home for your calendar, chores, meals, pantry, shopping lists, and goals — so everyone in the house is finally on the same page. Mount an iPad on the wall or counter as a family display, and carry the same plan in your pocket on your phone. Everything stays in sync. • SHARED CALENDAR — Everyone's events in one view, with countdowns to the days that matter ("3 sleeps until the trip!") and birthdays that never sneak up on you. • CHORES & REWARDS — Assign chores, snap photo-proof when they're done, and let kids earn rewards. Set up a rewards jar to save toward a shared goal. • MEALS & SHOPPING — Plan the week's meals and build the grocery list from them. Scan barcodes to add pantry items in a tap. • PANTRY — Track what's in the house and what's about to expire, with allergen warnings for the whole family or per person. • GOALS — Keep the family's intentions front and center, from reading streaks to saving up for something big. • RHYTHMS — The things that should keep happening but aren't chores and aren't goals: trash out weekly, the air filter every three months, a family outing on the third weekend. Waffled counts down to each one and gets out of the way. • WEEKLY PLANNING — Sit down once a week and decide the week ahead together: what's still open, the calendar, goals, meals, who does what, and a turn for the kids. • FAMILY NIGHT — A customizable, auto-rotating agenda for your weekly family time. • A HOME SCREEN THAT'S YOURS — Reorder and hide the cards on your Today view so it shows what your family actually cares about. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Waffled is self-hostable and open source. Run it on your own server and your family's data stays yours — no ads, no tracking, no selling your life to anyone.
