Saam

Saam is a smart family assistant that helps households remember and share out everything that needs doing. A parent says or types what is going on, and Saam turns it into complete tasks with the date, time and details filled in, then divides them fairly across the household.

Beyond tasks, Saam helps with the everyday planning around a family: it suggests what to eat, builds the shopping list, and puts together packing lists for a weekend away. It also drafts the small messages that are easy to put off, such as a thank-you note or a message to cancel something on a parent's or child's schedule. The parent reviews it and sends it themselves.

Saam is designed to be quick to use. It connects to WhatsApp and the calendar, so tasks arrive where people already look, and shortcuts make it possible to open the app and record a task in a few seconds. Saam runs on iPhone, iPad and Android, in English and Dutch, with data processed within the EU. It is currently free.
