From our Family to Yours
We’re working towards a more equitable world, starting at home.
the Jam Mission
Let’s lighten the load for parents everywhere.
It was never our goal to just build a slick family calendar and organizational platform. We wanted to be part of actively dismantling the mental load that parents—particularly moms—carry with them everywhere.

As a reproductive psychiatrist, I witness firsthand the immense pressure and stress that modern family life can place on individuals, particularly women - increasing risk for depression and anxiety disorders. Jam is a game-changer in my practice, providing families with a vital tool to alleviate the mental load and promote better mental health.

"I've seen the positive impact of Jam on the families we work with. Families can effortlessly coordinate schedules, track important deadlines, and stay on top of academic commitments, resulting in less stress for both students and parents. The ability to assign tasks and share calendars ensures that everyone is accountable and informed, fostering a sense of responsibility and independence in kids and teens."

SISTERS. MOMS. FOUNDERS.
Meet the fam behind Jam.
We’re Amanda and Jessica, sisters who grew up in the analog age. When we were kids, the kitchen desk was our mom’s command center, complete with a bulletin board and a day planner six inches thick. That’s where you went to see what you needed for the dance rehearsal, which day the pajama party was, and when the next Spice Girls album would drop.
Fast forward to adulthood, when we both had our own kids (and they had pajama parties too). Amanda (the little sister) would wake up in the morning under an avalanche of apps, notes, and to-dos and not know where to look first: the mile-long text thread with her partner, or the email she’d sent herself at 11 p.m. listing all things she could NOT FORGET. There had to be a better way. So she asked Jessica (the big sister), what tool she used to stay organized. Jess had to break it to her that she hadn’t found one either. Together we polled our friends, and they said the same thing. We couldn’t figure out why no one had created a platform to help families get it together.
As experienced software creators and organizational freaks (you should see our family vacation spreadsheets), we decided, if no one else is tackling this issue, why not do it ourselves? That’s when our vision of project management software for families was born. Now, we’re beyond excited to see this dream grow beyond us to parents everywhere. Welcome to the Jam fam.
