The Family Operating System

Let your phone run the household so you can be in the moment.

Seven iPhone shortcuts, already built. Tap the link, add your names, and it runs tomorrow morning.

Each kid gets their day by text at 8, so you can drink your coffee instead of answering questions.
The grocery list fills itself from the dinners you pick, so you can walk into the store ready.
Open chores text the kid at the time you set, so you can skip the asking.

One time purchase. Formerly the Complete Bundle.

A real run from Cassie's phone. A teacher's name and a school signup link are blurred.

How it runs at our house

Every morning at 8, every kid's phone tells them what's on their calendar, which chores are theirs, and what's due. The questions that used to come to you are answered before anyone is downstairs. The grocery list is already made when you get to the store, because the recipes you picked put their ingredients on it. When a chore is still open at the set time, the reminder texts the kid, so the asking isn't your job anymore.

These are the iPhone Shortcuts that run our house of seven. They're already built. Tap the link, add your names and your lists, and they run tomorrow morning.

$45, once. Seven iPhone Shortcuts, already built, the chore system, and the guide for the calendar and lists they read from. Building the first one yourself is a weekend of learning the Shortcuts app. These install in a tap, and nothing renews.

“I'm working on the grocery automation, thank goodness those are built for me.” Then: “Got it! Both are working!”

What's in it

What's in it.

The morning text (Partner Sync and Kid Sync)Each person's day, sent to their own phone at 8.
The grocery list that builds itself (two recipe shortcuts)Screenshot a recipe and it files itself. Pick the week's meals and the ingredients land on the list.
Chore reminders that text the kid (Trust But Verify)The shortcut checks the list and texts whoever still has an open chore, plus the checklists and the Sunday agreement, so done means the same thing to everyone.
The arrival texts (On My Way Home and the ETA menu)Your phone texts the family the time you'll actually pull in, so nobody asks where you are.
Before You LeaveThe things you always forget in the car, read out loud when you start it.
The guide and the templatesHow to set up the one calendar and the shared lists all of this reads from, and the fifteen-minute weekly meeting that fills them in.

The four products in The Family Operating System, $45, one time. School Mail Triage, the shortcut that pulls dates and to-dos out of school email and puts them on your calendar, is a separate product. Add it at checkout for $12 instead of $19 on its own. One tick box on the next screen.

Before you buy

What you need, and what you don't.

An iPhone with the Shortcuts app that came with it. The two recipe shortcuts run on Apple Intelligence, so they need an iPhone 15 Pro or newer. Everything else works on any iPhone that runs Shortcuts. The calendar section works with Apple Calendar or Google Calendar, and the people receiving the texts can be on Android.

You do not need a Claude, ChatGPT, or any other AI account. No new apps, no subscription, nothing that renews. Everything arrives in one email, as PDFs and editable files, with the install links inside. Every shortcut installs from a link in one tap, with placeholders where your own names and lists go, and a page on what each piece does so you can change it. The shortcuts are iPhone only. There is no Android version, and we would rather say that here than after you have paid.

From customers

From people who bought it.

Customer

“I am loving the automations. They are such game changers.”

“I build systems at work, it's what I'm good at, but have never wrapped my brain around how to do it at home. Four kids at four different schools. I'm lost.”

Cassie Douglas, founder of The Family OS

I run big projects at work. Now our house runs the same way.

I’m Cassie, founder of The Family OS. My husband Josef and I have five kids, from a high schooler with a job down to seven-year-old twins. Our calendar has cheer, orchestra, a musical, and Friday night games on it most weeks.

I spent 20 years running restaurants, and today I lead large projects and training at work. Both jobs come down to getting the right information to the right people before they need it. One day I asked myself why I did that all day at work and none of it at home.
