Who is Fambot for?

Busy parents juggling school, activities, and family logistics — especially if you are the one reading the school emails and managing the calendar.

How do I get started?

Connect your Gmail and Google Calendar, and share a few quick details about your family. Fambot takes it from there.

Do I need a credit card?

Nope. No credit card required. Fambot is free while in beta. Later, we will offer a free tier and a paid tier — you will still be able to use the free tier.

How long does setup take?

A few minutes. Connect, add a little context, and Fambot starts building your Daily Digest and decoding school newsletters.

Does Fambot work with my school?

If your school communications show up in Gmail, there's a good chance yes. Fambot learns what matters for your kids and your routines.

How does Fambot work?

Things like early dismissal, extracurricular events, schedule changes, sign-ups closing soon, permission slips, what to bring, what to wear — Fambot reads the noise so you don't have to, then surfaces only what matters.

Do I have to forward emails, tag messages, or take screenshots?

No. No forwarding. No tagging. No sorting your inbox. Just connect once — and Fambot is on it.

Does Fambot work for multiple kids and multiple schools?

Yes. Fambot is designed to handle multiple kids, schools, and schedules — and keep it all organized in one place.

What are "Clear actions to take"?

As soon as you connect, Fambot highlights your most important actions for each day — from "sign the permission slip" to "RSVP for Emma's birthday" to "dress for crazy hair day."

What is "Quick backpack check"?

A quick list of what each kid needs in their backpack to be ready for the day — so you can avoid that second trip back to school.

What is "The family calendar"?

Tomorrow at a glance, pulled straight from your calendar — with key details pulled in and ready to add when you want them.

What happens when plans change?

Fambot catches schedule changes and gives you a heads up at the right moment. With your permission, it can also help keep your calendar in sync.

What is "What's on the horizon"?

A look at the week ahead so nothing sneaks up on you. You can check items off, assign tasks, or add your own.

What is the "Email and newsletter decoder"?

Personalized checklists that help you get ahead of the chaos so you can be calm, prepared, and present when the holiday party, field trip, or fundraiser arrives.
