Why we built this

Grandma has no idea what's going on this week. And she desperately wants to.

Across an extended family, the games, recitals, and milestones live in a dozen places — a team app here, a group text there, a calendar nobody outside the household can see. So the people who love a child most are left guessing, or simply left out.

Every other app is built for the team manager. Nobody built one for the grandparent — or the aunt across the country, or the cousins who'd love to swing by. I'll Be There gathers every kid's games, recitals, and events into one place and puts them in the hands of the whole family.

So the moment it's over — the game, the recital, the big speech, the graduation walk — you know what happened, wherever you are. You can call, text, or just be the first to say you're proud. Nothing else keeps the whole family that connected today.

One family. One calendar. Every moment.

Built to keep the whole extended family connected — simple enough for anyone.

📅

Every kid, one calendar

Every kid's activities across your whole extended family in one place. Catch your daughter's 9am soccer game, your nephew's noon swim meet, and your niece's 7pm ballet recital — the same day. Just the moments worth showing up for, not every routine practice — plus events like the school play and family reunions.

🔗

Bring your schedules — don't rebuild them

You don't create a new calendar from scratch. I'll Be There gathers the schedules you already have: paste an iCal link from the team app, forward the coach's email with all five games, or just say the details out loud. It all lands in one place, for the whole family to see.

☀️

Your morning game plan

Each morning, see everything happening that day across all the kids you love — games, recitals, performances, and more. Each one shows exactly how far away it is, and a single tap opens the map with turn-by-turn directions — so you can decide what to make it to and head straight there.

🙋

Say "I'll Be There"

Tap to tell the family you're coming. Parents know to expect you, and when several of you are going, it's easy to plan a meal together afterward.

👪

Every family, however it's shaped

Two parents, co-parents raising kids across two homes, blended families, grandparents, guardians, nannies, and caregivers — anyone who helps raise a child can take part and pitch in. Each person gets a role, and only ever sees what the parents allow.

🔒

You decide who sees what

Parents are always in control — down to each person. You choose who gets updates about each child: Grandma, yes. Your sister, no. Your aunt, yes. Nobody is added by default, and no one ever sees more than you decide. No awkward group texts, no hurt feelings — just the right people cheering on the right kid. Change it anytime.

🧡

Close, even from far away

Can't make it from a thousand miles out? Get the update the moment it's over — the final score, the standing ovation, the proud walk across the stage — so you can call to celebrate, or lift them up if it didn't go their way. A family touchpoint that didn't exist before.
