A working clickable prototype exploring how a family of four (plus an au pair plus visiting grandparents) might run their lives through one well-designed surface, with AI quietly doing the synthesis underneath.
Families today juggle a half-dozen apps to coordinate a single household: shared calendar, todo list, photo sharing, document storage, notes, communication with caregivers, school portal logins, doctor portal logins. The cognitive load of orchestrating across all of them falls disproportionately on one parent — typically the one carrying mental inventory of who's allergic to what, when the field trip permission form is due, where the insurance card is saved, and what Basia said about Camille's nap.
AI hasn't fixed this. It's mostly made it worse — every productivity app now has a half-baked chatbot bolted on, and none of them know anything about your actual family.
ʻOhana starts from a different premise: the right product isn't a chatbot. It's a complete family operations surface where the AI is doing the unglamorous work of extraction, synthesis, and proactive surfacing — and the user-facing app is a beautiful, opinionated, mobile-first interface that treats this AI work as plumbing, not feature.
The prototype shows ten or so screens: the daily home view with feed and Today card; the calendar with a Care timeline that answers "who has the kids right now"; tasks organized by person; per-kid profiles with AI-built knowledge bases; granular permissions for caregivers; an Ask chat that cites its sources. It's clickable. It's responsive. It loads on your phone.
It's also v0 — a designer's manifesto for what this category could look like. The next step is building it for real. Get in touch if you want to see it run, build it together, or just argue about what's missing.
