CoreParent is a co-parenting organizer for parenting plans, calendars, expenses, messages, and records, available on iOS, macOS, and the web. Its 14-section parenting blueprint can be built from scratch or from an existing plan or court order. The custody calendar supports schedules such as 2-2-3 and week-on/week-off, tracks parenting time, and exports through iCal to Google, Apple, or Outlook. Its child support calculator covers all 50 states. Messages are screened for hostile, accusatory, or threatening language before sending. Companion can suggest calmer wording and identify events or expenses, but requires user approval to send; it can also be switched off. Accounts are private by default, and users choose what to share with a co-parent. CoreParent says it encrypts data in transit and at rest, and limits access by role. The free plan includes up to 15 expenses, five court deadlines, and three child support calculations. Annual Solo is 129.00 USD per year; annual Family is 199.00 USD per year. Expense payments incur a 2% platform fee, and both parents need payout accounts. CoreParent is an organizational tool, not legal advice.
Who it is for
It suits co-parents who need shared planning and recordkeeping tools, and attorneys or mediators who want a directory of family law professionals. The site says the directory lists more than 1,000 professionals, searchable by state, specialty, and language.
