Every family you support is running a second shift at home.

The school emails, the dentist, whose turn it is for football kit, the thing that has to be bought before Thursday. It runs in the background all day, in somebody's head, and it does not stop when they sit down at work.

Researchers call it the mental load. Most organisations never see it, because from the outside it does not look like anything.

We built Homie because we were living it. One shared place for the family week, so the whole household can see what is happening, not just the parent holding it together.

One shared calendar the whole family can see and edit. Tasks that do not need a parent to chase them. Routines for mornings, school and bedtime. Meal planning, with recipes that turn into a shopping list.

It works on iOS and Android, offline as well as on, in Norwegian and every other major language. There is a display mode for a screen on the kitchen wall, included in every subscription.

No ads. No AI. Nothing about a family sold to anyone.

Partner organisations get the first year free. No licence fee, no setup cost, no commitment at the end of it.

We do it this way because a year is long enough to find out whether families actually use it. Three months is not. If it has not made a difference by then, walking away should be easy, and it is.

Most employers land on the first. Most community organisations without a budget line land on the second. Neither is the default, and you can change your mind at the end of the year.

Homie was built by a Norwegian family, for a Norwegian family, before it was built for anyone else.

A father who is a self-described structure geek, probably a coping mechanism for his ADHD. A wife who is the toughest critic in the house and took a month to try it. An eleven-year-old who could not remember her gym bag, and a mother acting as a human reminder, which was a sub par solution for both of them.

We wanted something that feels like a whiteboard on the fridge, only better. That is still the whole idea.
