Problem solved

Co-parents often face friction and conflict over shared child expenses, with unclear records, forgotten payments, and disputes about fairness leading to stress and arguments. CoParent Share solves this by providing a shared, neutral ledger that removes the need for uncomfortable money conversations. It automatically enforces pre-agreed split rules, maintains a real-time balance that both can see, and requires dual approval for every settlement, creating a trustworthy, conflict-reducing financial workflow.

Use cases

• Track and split recurring child expenses like school fees, sports registrations, and utilities using custom percentage rules per category.
• Log one-off medical or dental costs with attached receipts and split them according to agreed ratios (e.g., 50/50 or 70/30).
• Request a settlement for an outstanding balance, which the other parent must approve to finalize the payment.
• Export timestamped PDF or CSV statements for legal documentation, tax purposes, or personal records.
• Use the mobile app to quickly add expenses on the go and check how much is owed or owing in real time.

Audience

• Business Users

Pros

• Automatic enforcement of custom split rules eliminates manual calculations and disagreements.
• Dual-approval settlement mechanism ensures transparency and mutual agreement.
• Real-time balance tracking keeps both parents informed at all times.
• Secure, immutable records with bank-level encryption and no unilateral editing.
• Cross-platform availability (web, iPhone, Android) for convenient expense logging and reconciliation.

Cons

• Monthly subscription fee per parent ($9 each) may be a barrier for some users.
• Limited to expense management—does not include scheduling, messaging, or other co-parenting coordination features.
• Relies on both parents actively using the app for full functionality; if one refuses, the system breaks down.
