At In Tandem, our tech solutions—which include OurFamilyWizard, Cozi, FamilyWall, and Custody Navigator—work in tandem with families to simplify daily life, fostering connection, organization, and peace of mind throughout key stages and milestones of family life.

We believe technology can champion deeper connections within families, strengthen bonds, and improve communication.
