Visit websiteFamily life has for too long been on the shoulders of one. With the Fred app, both parents get the insights they need to shoulder family life together.
Get early accessThe family assistant that thinks ahead, coordinates and flags when it’s about to go wrong.


Any calendar event you plan, Fred understands, and helps you with the related mental load. Going to a birthday? Bring a gift. Kids swimming? Bring swim kit. Holiday? Book travel, location maybe packlist?


In the app’s Today screen both of you see the same day: what is on, what is still open, who is driving what. No more “I thought you were picking up Emma from day care today…”.


Your family gets its own Fred email address. Forward the mail from school, day care or the sports club and Fred sums up the important parts for both of you in the app. Asking “who is volunteering for the class outing next week?”


Managing a family is no small feat. In Our Share you can see how the thinking and doing were distributed. A check-in chance, not a verdict, and a good conversation starter on what might need some change.
Fred is engineered to solve root systemic family imbalances. We engage closely with leading Dutch advisors on shared-load parenting.

Real questions from parents, members, and daily Fred users.
Fred is an app for iPhone and Android that both parents share. You tell Fred what is coming up, by typing, by voice or by forwarding an email, and Fred turns it into events and to-dos, keeps track of who's doing what, and sends timely reminders. The Today screen and a short morning brief show only what matters today — so the plan isn't only in one person's head. Fred also sets up a shared family calendar so everyone is looking at the same plan instead of guessing.
Fred only sees what you share: what you and your partner tell Fred in the app, the calendars you choose to share, and any emails you forward (like a flight confirmation or school notice). That information is used solely to plan and remind for your family — it's never sold or used for advertising. You can stop sharing, or leave, at any time.
Fred is still in beta, so now and then Fred will get a date wrong or miss a detail. If something looks off, just say so in the chat and Fred will propose the fix. Feedback and ideas you share in the chat or the app's feedback tab land directly with the people building Fred.
