The family operating system
very family runs on one exhausted person’s memory. The school emails, the permission slips, who’s covering Thursday pickup — it all lives in somebody’s head. Third Brain is a staffed household: forward it mail, think out loud with it, and a small crew of agents keeps the board — proposing, never acting, until you tap Apply.
The staff
Every one of them proposes; a human approves. That is the whole constitution.
The desk · after hours
Type it or say it out loud — “what’s on this week?”, “build us a grocery cart”, “ask Grandma about Friday.” The Chief sees the whole board, answers plainly, and hands you a card to approve. Your voice is transcribed at the edge and never sold to anyone.
How it runs
01
Feed it
Forward the school email, snap the flyer, say it out loud. Scout files it — deadline, owner, the lot.
02
Ask it
The board, the week, the money, the groceries. The Chief answers from what the house actually knows.
03
Approve it
Texts to helpers, emails to offices, carts to checkout — drafted for you, sent only on your tap.

The full staff
$8/ household / month
Founding households keep this price for life.
One price covers the whole household — partners, kids, grandparents. Helpers are never charged and never will be: they get a respectful text, having agreed to it themselves.
