Manage Chores and Market Runs as a Couple— Now Built into ParentCo

Apr 19, 2025

Managing a household as a couple or parent can feel like juggling knives — between cleaning schedules, grocery lists, and figuring out who’s doing what, it’s easy for things to slip (and arguments to start).

At ParentCo, we believe home management shouldn’t feel like chaos. It should feel like teamwork. That’s why we’re excited to introduce a brand new set of Tools designed to help families collaborate better — starting with Chore Management and Market Run Templates.

Whether you're a newlywed figuring out routines, or parents trying to keep the home running smoothly, these tools help you stay aligned, reduce stress, and get things done — together.

🧹 What’s New?

1. Chore Management Tool

No more arguments over “who cleaned last.” With our new Clean-Up Schedule, families can:

  • Set weekly or daily chores

  • Assign tasks to specific household members

  • Track status and completion

  • Stay accountable (without micro-managing)

Built for couples, co-parents, roommates, and family units of all kinds.

2. Market Run Template

We get it — the shopping list always lives in someone’s head (or on a sticky note). Now, you can:

  • Create shared grocery lists

  • Track quantity, priority, and cost

  • Assign who’s buying what

  • Mark items as purchased

This is budgeting and collaboration in one place.

Coming Soon: ParentCo Mobile App

We’ve started development of our mobile app based on the amazing feedback you’ve shared. With it, you’ll be able to receive daily prompt push notifications, access tools on the go, and have a smoother experience built for mobile. The MVP goes live June 2025 — stay tuned!
