The Problem: Double Billing
Co-parenting is already one of the most emotionally and financially demanding situations a family can face. The last thing parents need is an app that doubles the bill by charging each parent separately.
Most co-parenting platforms — OurFamilyWizard, TalkingParents, AppClose — require both parents to maintain individual paid subscriptions. That means a family paying $25/month per parent is actually spending $50/month just to share a calendar and send messages.
Per-Family Pricing: One Subscription, Both Parents
At Kinvana, we believe the family is the unit, not the individual. One subscription covers both parents, starting at $9.99/month for the Essential plan. That's less than what most competitors charge a single parent.
We also offer a permanent free tier with court-grade messaging, a shared calendar, and basic expense tracking — because every family deserves accountability tools regardless of budget.
Removing Barriers to Adoption
Per-family pricing removes a major barrier to adoption. When only one parent has to manage the subscription, there's less friction getting your co-parent on board. They get full access — shared calendar, immutable messaging, court-admissible records — without entering a credit card.
Aligned Incentives
This model also aligns incentives. We succeed when both parents use the platform, not when we extract maximum revenue from each individual. It's a small design decision that reflects a fundamentally different philosophy: co-parenting tools should reduce conflict, not add to it.
Early Adopter Program
Our early adopter program takes this even further. The first 100 families get Essential at $4.99/month, locked in for 12 months. That's less than a single latte for a platform that can genuinely change how you co-parent.
