Signals & Structure · The step-by-step guide family court never handed you
Nobody hands you a manual when your family lands in court.

The kits
Pick the one that sounds like you
Every tool here is part of the Co-Parent Command Center. Each kit bundles the ones that help most at that point in your case, and every kit starts with ALIGN.
Not sure which one? Two questions, no email.
Is your parenting plan signed yet?
Is a hearing, modification or enforcement motion coming up?
Before You Sign Kit
"There's a plan in front of me and I'm not sure what it really says."
If you're drafting, in mediation or about to sign, this is the cheapest moment you'll ever have to fix unclear language, and your financial affidavit is coming right behind it.
- Every unclear line in your draft marked, while asking for clearer wording is still free
- Your schedule on a real calendar, holidays and summers included, before you agree to it
- Your financial affidavit done line by line, with the source written next to every number
What you'll need
- The draft plan or proposed agreement in front of you
- Your child's school calendar for this year
- Recent pay stubs, bank statements and monthly bills
You don't need all of it today, and each tool tells you what's missing as you go.

"It's been signed for two years and it still isn't being followed."
You can't control whether your order gets followed, but you can control how well you know what it says and how clean your own record is when something goes sideways.
- Your order decoded, so you know exactly what it asks of each of you
- Your messages, emails and app exports turned into one dated, indexed record
- Every shared expense matched to its proof, so you can see who owes what
What you'll need
- Your signed plan, the final judgment and any later orders
- Message exports from email or your co-parenting app
- Receipts and payment requests for shared expenses
You don't need all of it today, and each tool tells you what's missing as you go.

About ten minutes to set up
Here's how it works
- 1
You get a Start Here page
It opens the minute you buy and walks you through setup in the order that actually works. If you need to stop halfway, it's right where you left it.
- 2
Add three files to your AI
ALIGN is designed and tested on Claude. Other paid AI programs can run it, but the output is variable, so plan on a paid account (Claude Pro is about $20 a month).
- 3
Type Start and add your plan
It reads your documents first, so the only questions you get are the ones they can't answer. If something's missing, it tells you instead of guessing.
Where most parents start
ALIGN · Your parenting plan, decoded
Every unclear line, silent gap and "Before you hold this line" clause in your plan, decoded clause by clause, with five documents customized to your family. It's $149 on its own, and it's the first tool in every kit.
- 5documents
- 16workbook tabs
- 15core checks
- 10real-life situations
Bring it to your lawyer, mediator, guardian ad litem or parenting coordinator. Your questions, deadlines and open issues are in one place before the clock starts.
Why not just upload it to a chatbot?
A summary won't show you what's missing
A chatbot gives you a summary and guesses at the rest. ALIGN gives you your plan decoded, a list of what to fix, and the blind spots you'd otherwise find out about from a retainer bill. It doesn't just read your plan. It weighs each clause for how clear it is and how much is riding on it, so you know where to look first, and it stays anchored to your documents and your state's rules, never the internet's idea of a parenting plan.
Your plan never comes to me. ALIGN runs inside your own AI account on your own files, and redaction is built in, so your kids stay by role and your address, school and case number never land on a page you hand to someone else.
I'm not a lawyer. I'm a mom who spent almost ten years in family court, paying by the hour out of my savings and then my 401(k) for someone to organize what I could have organized myself if I'd had a system. Every tool here came out of a night I needed it and couldn't find it, and if you're in that exhaustion right now, I see you, and this isn't your fault.Carrie Bailey, founder Read my story
Before launch, I ran ALIGN on six real parenting plans, from friends and friends of friends, to make sure it held up on plans I didn't write.
Free, no card

I'm not a lawyer, so these tools can't tell you what your plan means for your case or what a judge will do. They're educational and organizational, and they work alongside a lawyer or without one.
