🛠️ Tools
Records hold what happens. Tools turn that information into something useful — structured logs, calendars, timelines, and calculators that pull from what you've recorded.
⚠️ Incidents
Log concerning events as they happen — exchange issues, missed visits, concerning behaviors. Attach photos or screenshots.
👶 Child Logs
Track visitations, calls, appointments, and school events on a calendar. Attach report cards or letters from providers.
📅 Timeline
See key case events — court filings, orders, incidents — in chronological order. Use Timeline Builder under Reports for a custom export.
💰 Child Support
Document a current support order, log income changes, and open your state's official calculator to estimate a new amount.
📋 Court Docket
Import your court's docket (Date, Category, Description). Each docket entry gets a Link file button so you can point it at an order, motion, or petition you've uploaded under Records. No auto-matching — every link is yours.
💬 Communication Apps
Capture messages from co-parenting apps like TalkingParents and OurFamilyWizard, import their PDF exports, and search across the conversation history.

Import your AT&T phone bill (usage details .xlsx) to log calls and texts with specific contacts. Filter by number, summarize contact frequency, and print a report.
📨 Emails
Open an MBOX file from Gmail, Outlook, Apple Mail or Proton export. Search subjects, senders, and bodies; render messages and attachments.

📌 What to Expect
Custody cases often last longer than anticipated — sometimes years. During that time, life changes:
- You may move homes or change jobs
- Attorneys and judges may change
- Jurisdictions can shift
- Family circumstances evolve — illness, loss, new relationships
This is why documentation matters.
The records you keep today may be needed years from now. Export your data regularly and keep backups in a safe place.
