Find the ambiguity in your plan before somebody else uses it.
Understand the plan you are living under, in plain language, before the next disagreement. Two parents read the same plan and walk away with two versions, because the language nobody defined reads two ways. ALIGN™ decodes your plan section by section, shows you every spot where it is unclear or silent, and hands you a kit you can use whether or not the other parent will engage. Clarity in. Conflict out.
One payment, not a subscription. Instant download. Any U.S. state. Runs in your own AI account (Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini or Copilot). Your documents stay yours. Nothing hosted, nothing pooled.
Most of the disagreement is about what a sentence meant, not what happened.
A parenting plan is a contract two people live inside for a decade. Most are written in language that reads two ways, with no response windows, no tie-breakers and no backstops. The parts nobody defined become the parts you go back and forth about every week.
"We read 'after school' two completely different ways."
The plan says "after school." It does not say 3:15, and it does not say what happens on a half day or a teacher workday.
The gap: exchange day and time"I paid for the braces. Now we disagree about who owes what."
"Split uncovered costs" with no percentage, no consent rule and no receipt deadline is not a payment plan. It is a future disagreement.
The gap: who pays what, by when"A trip got booked over my week. Do holidays come first or not?"
Many plans never say whether a holiday period replaces the regular rotation, how the rotation resumes, or how much notice travel needs.
The gap: holiday priority and travel notice"Our daughter was with a sitter. I thought I was supposed to get a call first."
Right of first refusal only works with an hour threshold, a way to ask, and a deadline to answer. Most plans have none of the three.
The gap: right of first refusal"I asked a simple question in writing and never got an answer. Now what?"
If the plan does not say what silence means, every unanswered request stays open. Your messaging app carries messages. It does not make sense of them.
The gap: response windows and what silence means"My lawyer spent a paid hour explaining one paragraph to me."
You should walk into that meeting knowing exactly which sections are unclear, with your questions already written and sorted.
The gap: your prep timeThe point is not to win an argument. It is to spend less of your life having it.
ALIGN™ finds the undefined language first, so you can agree on the words calmly, with your children's stability as the shared reason for every definition. Every finding describes the document, never a person. Nothing moves without you.
Copy, paste, attach your plan, type "Please Align."
ALIGN™ is a complete decoding method you paste into the AI assistant you already use. It walks you through five short steps, A·L·I·G·N, and you can stop and pick back up any time.
Open the file and copy it
Your download has two files: a two-page START HERE guide and the ALIGN.txt method. Open the text file, select all, copy.
Paste it into a new chat and attach your plan
Works in Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini or Copilot. A PDF, a photo of each page, or the text of your plan all work. A final judgment or settlement agreement helps too.
Type "Please Align"
ALIGN™ confirms what it read, asks where you are with your plan, and works through it section by section. Then it builds your kit.
Which document, at which stage: signed and adopted by a court, signed without the judgment, an attorney or mediator draft, a draft you wrote yourself, or no plan yet.
Whose rules apply. ALIGN™ fills in the official sources for your state and county and flags every one to verify.
Clause by clause: what it says, how it plays out in real life, and what to watch for.
Every term the plan uses but never defines, and every topic it never raises at all.
Every open item sorted: answered by re-reading a section, a question for an attorney, or a form or office to find.
Not a summary. A numbered kit, in reading order, built from your own plan.
Every file comes from the same findings, so your booklet, your summary, your workbook and your proposals never disagree with each other.
Your plan in one page
The plan in one line, your Define Now list, what every file is for, and the three cooperation paths so you can pick yours honestly.
For youYour Plan Decoded Booklet
Seven parts: where you stand, what your plan says in plain words, ten "when this happens" situations, what to define and when it will surface, moving forward, a glossary, and an appendix for your attorney.
For youPlain-English Summary
The two-minute version: the plan in plain words, the heat map, your top actions, your next three steps, and your clarity score. Editable.
For youCommand Center Workbook
The living record. Who has the children when, what is unclear, a deadlines tracker, and an Expense Log that computes receipt and pay-back deadlines from your plan's own windows.
For you, then your attorneyFor the other parent
A: Proposed Neutral Fixes, a calm letter with a symmetric proposed wording for each unclear item. B: the same items with blanks, for mediation or counsel.
Only if it is safe and workable to sendAttorney or Mediation Hand-Off
Snapshot, plan grade, prioritized issues, proposed clarifications, open questions sorted plan vs. legal, deadlines, and what is not yet established.
For your attorney or mediatorThree signals. Always sorted red, yellow, green. Always with when it will surface.
Missing or unclear, with a deadline or a consequence attached. Worth agreeing on first.
Works until the situation arrives. Agreeing on it now avoids a disagreement later.
Written clearly. Nothing needed.
Whatever the other parent does, most of the kit still works.
Before it produces anything meant for the other parent, ALIGN™ asks one question: how does the other parent respond to written requests? Usually, sometimes, or rarely? Then it routes you to the path that fits.
Workable
They answer messages and can discuss logistics. You send the letter and the Proposed Neutral Fixes, one or two items at a time.
Mediation-ready
You can be in a room with a neutral, not alone. The Fill-In version and the Hand-Off go to the mediator or parenting coordinator.
Low cooperation
Requests go unanswered or get twisted. Nothing goes to the other parent. You keep the booklet, the workbook, the ten situations with their neutral questions, and the Hand-Off for counsel or the court's self-help center.
If there is a safety concern or a protective order in your situation, ALIGN™ does not produce the parent-to-parent documents at all. It builds the rest of the kit and points you to counsel, the court's self-help center and a domestic violence resource for your state.
Almost none of it gets read. What gets used is whatever somebody can follow quickly.
You are already documenting. Nobody told you what counts. Volume is not a record. A camera roll full of screenshots and a 40-message thread both take too long to follow. A one-page list that says "Section 4.2 does not state an exchange time; here is a neutral proposed wording" can be followed in a minute.
ALIGN™ does not tell you what a court will decide, and it never says who is right. It gets your plan, your questions and your proposed clarifications into a shape a mediator, an attorney or a judge can follow quickly, which is the only shape that ever gets used.
The difference is method.
Your documents stay yours. Nothing hosted, nothing pooled.
- ALIGN™ is a method file you paste into your own Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini or Copilot account. Signals & Structure™ never hosts, stores or pools your documents. Your plan never comes to us.
- Nothing moves without you. ALIGN™ drafts; you decide what to send, share or bring to counsel.
- Your children appear as initials in the snapshot and as "your son" or "your daughter" in the text. No addresses, phone numbers or emails are copied from your filings.
- Delete the chat when you are done. The kit is yours to keep.
Your state's words, your state's forms, your county's court.
Every state calls things something different: time-sharing, parenting time, custody, visitation; parental responsibility or legal custody. ALIGN™ uses your plan's own words first and your state's second, then fills in where the official rules live so you can go in informed.
Your state's custody, parenting time and child support chapters, named, never interpreted.
Your state's court-approved plan form, if one exists, and local county forms where they apply.
The notice or distance trigger and the guidelines worksheet, flagged, never computed for you.
The family division, the self-help center and the clerk for case records.
State bar referral, county bar, legal aid, and free legal answer services for your state.
VERIFY FOR YOUR STATE / WITH YOUR ATTORNEY, with the official page cited. If something cannot be confirmed, ALIGN™ says so.
For parents who are newly separated, negotiating a plan, or already co-parenting under an order and want to understand it instead of guessing.
There is a plan or an agreement on the table and the language is vague. That is the moment ALIGN™ is built for, and it stays useful at every stage after it.
It is signed and the court adopted it.
Decode the plan and the judgment together. Learn exactly what it says before the next situation comes up, and log what you are already doing in the workbook.
Mediation is in two weeks.
Walk in with every undefined item listed, a neutral question for each, and a fill-in proposal the mediator can work from.
Something changed.
New school, new job, new partner, new address. See which lines were written for a life you no longer have, and which questions belong to an attorney.
I am about to sign and I do not know what I am missing.
Decode the draft before it becomes an order. Every gap becomes a checklist item to raise before you sign.
I am writing it myself.
ALIGN™ walks the standard building blocks and points you to your state's official plan form, since most courts expect its structure.
We have been going back and forth about the same thing for two years.
See whether the plan actually answers the question or never did. The next step is different for each, and ALIGN™ shows you both.
One undefined clause costs more later than the whole plan costs to decode now.
Undefined language does not settle itself. It comes back at every exchange, every receipt and every holiday until somebody defines it, and each stop on the way costs more than the last.
A message thread
Two readings of "after school." Forty messages. Nothing decided, and the record you did not keep is the one you cannot go back and make.
A paid hour
An attorney or mediator reads the clause out loud to you and asks what you would like it to say. You have not thought about it yet.
A formal request to change the plan
The same sentence, now with a filing fee, a hearing date, and a decision that is no longer yours alone to make.
ALIGN™, $99
Every undefined clause listed, when it will surface, and a neutral proposed wording ready to bring to the other parent, a mediator or counsel.
Going into mediation? Pair ALIGN™ with the free CADENCE™ Lite calendar.

The price you decide on
One payment, about the cost of a single attorney hour, and that hour often goes to reading your plan out loud to you. If you are one of the 72 percent of parents in family court without a lawyer, this is the hour you never had.
The price you are already paying
Your evenings. The scroll through three months of messages to find one line. The retainer hour spent on a question your plan should have answered on page two. Every clause left undefined this month is the same clause next month, plus interest.

Before you buy
Is this legal advice?
No. ALIGN™ is an educational and organizational tool. It explains what your plan says in plain language, surfaces the undefined and missing terms, and points you to where the official rules live. It does not interpret the law, apply it to your situation, say who is right, or predict how a court will rule. Anything it points you to is a starting point to verify with a licensed attorney in your state.
Does it work for my state?
Yes, any U.S. state. ALIGN™ decodes the plan in front of it and fills in a jurisdiction pattern for your state and county: the statute category, the official plan form, the court self-help center, the clerk and where to find a lawyer. It never assumes a state, and every pointer is flagged to verify with the official page cited.
Do I need to be good with AI?
No. If you can copy, paste and attach a file, you can run ALIGN™. The START HERE guide is two pages, one action per step, and includes a short "if something goes wrong" table.
Which AI apps does it run in?
Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini and Copilot. A free account works for most plans; a paid plan handles long documents more comfortably. You use your own account, so nothing about your family passes through us.
What if my plan is only a draft, I wrote it myself, or I do not have one yet?
ALIGN™ asks where you are: signed and adopted by a court, signed without the judgment, an attorney or mediator draft, a draft you wrote yourself, or no plan yet. Drafts are decoded so every gap becomes a checklist item to raise before signing. With no plan yet, ALIGN™ walks the standard building blocks and points you to your state's official form.
What if the other parent will not cooperate?
That is the situation ALIGN™ assumes by default. Most of the kit needs no agreement from anyone: know what the plan says, log every receipt and send it inside the window, quote the section and ask the neutral question in writing once, follow the written plan where it controls, and bring the Hand-Off to counsel. The documents meant for the other parent are only produced when it is workable and safe to send them.
Will this make things worse between us?
It is built to do the opposite. Every finding describes the document, never a person. Every proposed fix is written to apply to both parents the same way, and the letter opens by asking to clarify and agree on a few things that are not fully defined. The children's stability is the shared reason for every definition.
Is there a refund?
Because ALIGN™ is a digital download that is delivered instantly, sales are final. If it does not run in your AI app, write to us and we will get it running with you.
What comes after ALIGN?
SAGE™ ($299, includes ALIGN) makes sense of the messages and shows you the pattern. Every tier includes everything below it, so starting with ALIGN never costs you anything except time. Most parents start with ALIGN and stop there.
