One home.
Everyone in sync.
Because the group chat, the sticky note, and the calendar nobody else can see stopped being enough.
Sound familiar?
Your house runs on a patchwork
Every household cobbles together tools that were never designed for this. Household HQ replaces all of them with one shared, real-time surface.
The group chat
Important info buried under memes, reactions, and tangents.
The sticky note
On the fridge. Ignored. Outdated. Nobody knows who wrote it.
Your personal calendar
Only you can see it. Everyone else is guessing.
The chore rota
Agreed on a Sunday. Forgotten by Thursday. Silent resentment by the weekend.
Everything your household needs
One app. Four things that run a home.
Shopping
One list. Everyone adds, everyone checks off.
A single grocery list that updates in real time across every phone in the household. Items track who added them and who bought them — no more "I thought you were getting that."
Calendar
The household calendar. Not your personal one.
One shared view of everything the household needs to know: appointments, bills, school events, visitors. Designed to complement your personal calendar, not replace it.
Noticeboard
The WiFi password. The landlord's number. The door that sticks.
A persistent shared board for the information that needs to stick around — house rules, important contacts, delivery instructions, anything that shouldn't get buried in a chat.
Chores
Whose turn is it? No more guessing.
Chore assignments with clear ownership, visible to everyone in the household. Bins, bathrooms, kitchen clean — assign on rotation, see whose name is on it, mark them done.
Our philosophy
Calm software
Household HQ is designed to be useful, then get out of the way.
No streaks, no nudges
Built for real life, not engagement metrics. No streak counters, no gamification, no notifications designed to drag you back in.
Privacy by default
Household data stays inside the household. No social graph, no public profiles, no ads. What happens at home stays at home.
Real-time where it matters
The shopping list and activity feed update the moment someone acts. Cross off milk at the dairy aisle — your partner sees it before they reach it.
Built for phones first
Designed for 10-second bursts at the supermarket or on the way out the door. Not a desktop product on a small screen.
