For personal & family life

The fridge door and WhatsApp is no way to run a family.

School emails, renewals, birthdays: it all lands in one inbox and lives in your head. readywhen catches every date, deadline and promise buried in there. Then it reminds you with time to act.

Free and unlimited. No credit card required.

A demo of readywhen doing four jobs for a busy family. School emails piling up: when the school newsletter lands, readywhen reads it in Gmail, pulls out every date and payment, checks them against your calendar and hands you the list, with the deadline flagged. Renewal creeping up: it spots the renewal notice, puts this year’s price next to last year’s, and sets a reminder with time to shop around before it auto-renews. Birthday next week: it remembers from last year’s thread, suggests the gift she mentioned herself, and drafts the booking email with time to act. What’s coming this week: every Sunday it reads your calendar and inbox and lines up the week: the kit day, the appointment, and the one deadline that cannot slip. readywhen catches every date, deadline and promise buried in your inbox, and reminds you with time to act.

Other AI tools are enthusiastic interns.
readywhen is your experienced senior.

Interns do exactly what you tell them. But you have to brief them, hand them the context and check the work. And next time, they start from scratch.

readywhen already knows your business and what matters. You onboard it once. You don’t manage it, it keeps you moving on what matters.

What did the school send this week?

Other AI tools

I can’t see your email, but most schools post updates on their website.

Three things: the trip payment due Friday, a non-uniform day Thursday, and parents’ evening booking, open Monday.

Three examples of the difference. Example 1: “What did the school send this week?” Other AI tools answer that they cannot see your email. readywhen reads Oakfield’s newsletter and the class rep emails in Gmail, matches the dates against your calendar, and answers: “Three things: the trip payment due Friday, a non-uniform day Thursday, and parents’ evening booking, open Monday.” Example 2: “Mum’s birthday is coming. Sort a plan?” Other AI tools offer ten gift ideas for mums. readywhen finds last year’s birthday thread, checks the 24th in your calendar and re-reads her email from May, then answers: “Twelve days out. A gift idea from her own email, the table to book this week, and a reminder set for the card.” Example 3: “Should we sort the kids’ rooms this weekend?” Other AI tools offer decluttering tips. readywhen checks what has a deadline and reads the weekend, then answers: “The trip payment is due Friday and the insurance renews Monday. Those first. The rooms can wait a weekend.”

Frequently asked questions

How does readywhen help a busy family?

readywhen gives a busy household the upside of AI without the building: no skills to write, no workflows to set up, nothing to maintain. Connect your tools and it works like the most organised person in the house. It catches every date, deadline and promise made across your inbox and calendar, and moves each one forward before anyone asks: the school dates pulled out, the reminder with time to act, the birthday plan ready to book.

How is it different from using ChatGPT or Claude?

Those are enthusiastic interns: highly capable, endlessly willing, but you do the training. You brief them, hand them the context and check what comes back, and next time they start from scratch. readywhen already knows your family’s dates and what you have promised, so it never starts from scratch: it acts on its own and hands you the work, drafted and ready.

How does readywhen get to know my family?

On its own. Connect your tools and it builds a picture of how the household runs: who’s in the family, which school emails matter, what renews when. Every school email, booking and renewal it sees after that sharpens the picture, so its knowledge of your family life compounds the more you use it. There is nothing to fill in and nothing to maintain.

Why should I use readywhen?

readywhen is built for the family where nobody's job is to catch what slips: no PA, no office, nobody whose job it is. You are the diary, the taxi and the school liaison at once, everything runs through you, and the quiet things slip: the trip payment missed, the renewal rolled over, the birthday remembered too late. readywhen holds it all outside your head, has a view on what needs you first, and gets each thing moving.

What else can readywhen help with?

readywhen works across your whole family life, not just the jobs above. It spots the club payment before the deadline, catches the dentist reminder buried in a newsletter, keeps every term date in one place with the school events calendar, and remembers the birthdays with time to do something about them. If it landed in your inbox with a date on it, it is on the list.

Is this another tool I have to live in?

No. readywhen has its own app, but you do not have to live in it: it runs in the cloud and works across the tools you already run, bringing the work to you drafted and ready. And you can talk to it straight from the app, with email on the way. There is nothing to install, nothing to migrate and nothing to maintain.

Which of my tools does it work with?

The ones busy families live in: Gmail and Google Calendar (WhatsApp is on the way), with more added regularly. It reads across them to build context, so you never paste anything in.

Is my family’s data safe?

Yes. readywhen only accesses the tools you connect, never trains on your data, and everything is encrypted.

How long does it take to set up?

Minutes. Connect your tools and readywhen starts working in the background. There is nothing to build, no prompts to write and no learning curve.

What does it cost?

readywhen is free and unlimited while we are in beta.
