ParentMate

ParentMate is a web-based parenting assistant for parents and carers of children from birth to the teenage years. Instead of searching books or forums, a parent describes a real situation - a tantrum, a sleep problem, sibling conflict, school stress, screen-time arguments - and receives thoughtful, research-based guidance they can act on right away.

Each child has a profile that keeps the full conversation history, so advice takes the child's age, temperament and previous situations into account rather than starting from scratch every time. Guided conversations are unlimited on all plans, and follow-up questions can build on earlier ones as a situation evolves.

Guidance is grounded in developmental psychology and established child-development frameworks. The assistant is designed with clear boundaries: it does not diagnose, and when a question involves medical, developmental or safety concerns it directs the parent to qualified professional help. Parents can review, edit or delete the information stored about their child.

ParentMate is offered as a subscription with a free trial. Plans differ by the number of child profiles supported and the depth of ongoing support. A native iOS app is in development.
