Sheri Atwood’s amicable divorce was overshadowed by disputes over co-parenting expenses.
To resolve these issues, Atwood developed a system for uploading receipts and tracking expenses with her ex.
Despite initially being amicable, the couple’s relationship became strained due to different financial values and communication challenges.
Recognizing the need for a better solution, Atwood created an app to automate payments, manage schedules, and facilitate communication between co-parents.
The app helped Atwood and her ex reduce frustration and focus on what mattered most: their daughter.
By shifting the mindset around financial transparency, the app removed emotion from transactions and improved communication.
Atwood’s app has since been used by other families to manage expenses related to child support, college fees, and senior care.
