The school WhatsApp is chaos. Your partner "didn't know" about the dentist. The permission slip is... somewhere.

The dog needs his jabs but nobody remembers when. That shared Google Calendar? Three people use it — differently — and it's just a grid. It doesn't tell you what's happening now, what's next, or whose turn it is. Your family deserves more than dates in boxes.

We've been there. That's why we built Ourly.

That old tablet in your kitchen drawer? It's your new command centre.

Ourly runs in any browser. No app store, no downloads, no "this device is no longer supported" nonsense. Works on 99% of devices. Even ones too old for the app stores.

The other 1% probably belong in a museum 🏛️

The Swifties

Built by the Swifties. For families like yours.

We're a real family — two parents, two kids, two ridiculous dogs — and we built the thing we wished existed.

Like most families, we tried everything. Shared Google Calendars (chaos). WhatsApp reminders (lost in the noise). A whiteboard on the fridge (someone always forgets to update it).

So we built one place where everyone can see what's happening, who's involved, and what needs doing — without the "I didn't know about that" conversations.

Ourly isn't built by a big tech company. It's built around our kitchen table, tested on our own hectic lives, and designed for families who just want things to work.
