Messaging that keeps things calm.
Tone Guard flags heated wording as you type and a calmer version is one tap away; every message is a permanent, timestamped record, and handover notes stay clear.
Tone Guard, on your side
As you type, Tone Guard checks the draft and flags wording that might read as heated. Tap for a calmer version, then use it, change it or ignore it: nothing is sent until you press send, and it never stops you sending a message or a handover note. Only the words of your draft are sent to be checked, nothing about your account, your family or your children goes with them, and the draft is not stored by the check. If a proposal note is sent with a Tone Guard flag, its result is kept with that note.
A permanent, fair record
Messages can't be edited or deleted — each one is timestamped and kept. Nobody can rewrite what was said, which takes the heat out of "I never agreed to that."
Know it was read
Every message shows when the other parent read it — "Read by Mark on Tuesday" — so "I never saw that" stops being a thing. Quiet, on-by-design, and exactly what matters for the notes that count.
Find anything in seconds
Search the whole record for a name, a date or a word — "antibiotics", "passport", "karate" — and jump straight to it. Months of handover notes, instantly findable.
Handovers in writing
Medicine doses, kit for school, who's at karate — the notes that matter at handover stay clear and easy to find, with the full past-handover history always a tap away.
Built for two homes
It reads like ordinary messaging, just calmer, in the co-parenting app built for UK families, so everyday updates about your kids feel normal, not like a legal process.

Co-parenting communication, kept calm and on the record
What is Tone Guard?
An AI check from a specialist AI service reads the message you are typing once you pause and flags wording that might read as heated. Only the words of your draft are sent; nothing about your account, your family or your children goes with them, and the draft is not stored by the check. On a flagged message you can tap for a calmer version and choose whether to use it.
Can co-parenting messages be edited or deleted?
No — every message is permanent and timestamped, so nobody can rewrite what was said. Read receipts show when each message was seen.
Can the messages be used if things reach mediation or court?
Messages are timestamped and tamper-evident; if things ever reach mediation or the family court, your records export court-ready: complete, dated and in order, and your data always comes out free. ParentGlow isn't legal-advice software.
