ParentGlow vs 2houses

2houses is a solid, budget co-parenting organiser used by families around the world — and, like us, it covers the whole family on one plan. So why consider ParentGlow? If you're a UK family who wants your own family-law language, court-ready records if you ever need them, and a slightly lower price, here's an honest side-by-side — including where 2houses still fits.

The short version

Is there a UK alternative to 2houses?

Yes — there’s a UK-built alternative. ParentGlow and 2houses both cover the whole family on a single plan, so this isn’t a “you pay twice” story — it’s about fit.

ParentGlow costs £5.99/mo — £59.99 a year for the whole family — versus 2houses’ €99/yr (€8.25/mo billed annually — they price in euros; checked 15 July 2026). The bigger difference is that ParentGlow is built for the UK: it speaks UK family law (child arrangements, contact, PD 27A — not US “custody”), keeps tamper-evident, court-ready records, and your data exports free, forever. 2houses is a clean international generalist — fair and affordable if UK legal framing doesn’t matter to you. More below.

Credit where it's due

Where 2houses fits.

Credit where it's due. 2houses has an established international base, works in multiple languages, and is a clean, budget shared organiser — with the same fair, one-plan-per-family pricing we believe in. If you want a no-frills shared organiser — calendar, expenses, messaging, journal, albums and an info bank — and UK legal framing simply doesn't matter to you, it's a fair, affordable pick.

For UK families

Where ParentGlow is built differently.

We share the same fair pricing — one plan for the whole family. The difference is that ParentGlow is built for a UK family day to day: your own language, court-ready if you ever need it, your data yours to keep.

  • UK family life, not an international template

    Your own language — contact, child arrangements, parental responsibility — plus £, NHS numbers and UK school terms in the shared calendar, built in from the start.

  • Court-ready if you ever need it

    Tamper-evident (SHA-256), PD 27A-aligned records and Tone Guard to suggest the calmer rewrite — the heavier court and tone tooling 2houses doesn’t carry.

  • Your data is yours — and a little cheaper

    Free, full export forever, no lock-in — and at £59.99/yr on the annual plan, billed in pounds, against 2houses’ €99/yr. The records you build stay yours to take with you.

ParentGlow isn't legal-advice software — it speaks your language and keeps a fair record, so you'd walk in prepared, not panicking.
