Step 2 Role-sharing conflict among family members
→
Step 3 Lack of a tool to track actual caregiving after division agreements, leading to accumulated distrust among siblings

Problem

When 3-4 siblings in their 50s share caregiving duties for parents in their 80s — hospital accompaniment, meal preparation, administrative tasks — they verbally agree to divide responsibilities, but with no record of who did what and when, resentment over 'I'm the only one doing anything' erupts within 3-6 months. They communicate via KakaoTalk group chat, but past messages are unsearchable and visit counts cannot be quantified. This conflict escalates to sibling estrangement in 30% of Korean family dispute counseling cases.

Solution

On the web, register family members and assign caregiving activities (hospital accompaniment/meals/admin/overnight care) to a shared calendar by person and schedule. When an activity is completed, tapping 'Done' auto-records it. Monthly Reports quantify each member's activity count and hours for transparent sharing. Schedule changes trigger automatic notifications to find substitutes.

Target: Ages 48-58, families where 2-4 siblings share care of a parent aged 75+, eldest sons/daughters who have experienced or want to prevent caregiving division conflicts
Revenue Model: Up to 3 family members Free; 4+ members + monthly Report + activity statistics dashboard $3.60/month (per family)
