We make tools for families who want less friction and more of the good stuff — the meals, the walks, the mornings that don't start with "wait, what am I doing today?"
Kids see their daily tasks, parents see what's been done, and the calendar keeps everyone on the same page. It runs in any browser — no app to install — and works just as well for one child as it does for seven.
We built it around the rhythm of homeschool days specifically: children, school years, recurring routines, days off, parent oversight. Not as a general-purpose to-do app that families have to bend around.
For years we reached for whatever was at hand — paper charts on the fridge, a shared Google Calendar, sticky notes, Notion pages, the occasional chore-tracker built for someone else's life. Nothing fit.
So we built the thing we wanted. A single family link anyone in the house can open. A per-child page that shows what's theirs today. A calendar that understands "every other Thursday" and "skip this week because of the field trip." And the whole thing quiet enough that it doesn't become one more app to manage.
Predictable routines free kids to be creative, focused, and joyful — not constrained by them. The schedule is the scaffolding, not the cage.
Tools should reduce mental load. If they add to it, they're the wrong tool. Pax is meant to disappear into the background of a good day.
A checked-off task, a shared meal, a calm morning — these are the materials you're building a family with. Stack enough of them and you have a childhood.
A space your kids actually want to open is a tool that gets used. Design isn't decoration — it's whether the thing works.
Busy homeschool families of any size. Families with 2 kids or 9. Families using classical, Charlotte Mason, unschooling, Catholic, eclectic, or something you invented yourself — anyone who runs a school day at home and wants one place to organize it.
If you're using sticky notes, a shared calendar, a paper chart, or three half-abandoned apps to keep track of everything — you're who we built this for.
Pax is Latin for peace. The logo isn't decoration. If you'd like the deeper version — where the name came from, what the Ichthys means, and why this logo instead of something clever — we wrote it all down.
Questions about the product, bug reports, feature requests, and "is this right for my family?" — all welcome.
