14 points by cat-turner ↗ HN
Hello! I am coparenting... and hated having to ask my baby daddy to pay for my sons clothing, school supplies groceries etc bc I had to add everything up. So I fixed it! I

- upload reciepts/bankstatements (no uploads saved)

- in description say the kinds of things you want to add up, even some math (like split)

- tally adds it up

it splits the costs if you add in the word split in the description. perfect for people who need to split costs, like gas, daycare, etc. would love any feedback. totally free! one day i will add a paywall, is daycare is EXPENSIVE.

I understand you made the app because of your own needs as a someone in a co parenting situation, but you’d have a lot more luck by removing that from your pitch. I see on your website you’ve mentioned friends or roommates which is a much bigger market.

The service itself sounds very useful, Splitwise is good but requires all parties to use and respect the app

Route should absolutely be just /parents. The co is the tld.

coparenting is a thing. thats why they made the app.

I suspect you misunderstand my intent here.

Right now the url is site.co/coparenting.

That’s .co/coparenting

What I’m saying is this works too: .co/parenting

It’s just irrelevant linking linguistics that I’m pointing out that was a missed opportunity. Doesn’t truly matter though.

We have been using splitwise https://www.splitwise.com/ for a better part of the decade to split costs. It’s also very useful when planning trips or group activities as it allows custom splits. Their phone app is extremely smooth too
