# KidsFirst: the free calm co-parenting app

> The free co-parenting app with an AI Conflict Filter. Manage schedules, messages, and expenses. Built by a parent, for parents. Free, always.

## About KidsFirst

KidsFirst is a free co-parenting communication app built by Vincent, a father
who experienced first-hand the damage that parental conflict causes children.
The app was born from his own custody journey and a belief that technology
should help kids — not just parents.

KidsFirst is free forever. Major competitors (OurFamilyWizard, TalkingParents,
2houses) charge $100–300/year. KidsFirst charges nothing.

The core differentiator is the **AI Conflict Filter** (also called AI Guardian):
messages are reviewed by AI before sending, softening hostile or aggressive
language to reduce escalation. No other major co-parenting app offers this.

Available on iOS and Android.

## Key features

- Shared messaging with AI Conflict Filter
- Shared parenting calendar and scheduling
- Expense tracking and co-parenting records
- Designed for separated or divorced parents
- Built with wellbeing of children as the north star
