Ask your parents what they want, while it’s easy to ask.
Tell your children what you want, while it’s easy to share.
Your parents answer questions in their own words — about home, driving, money, and what they’d want if things changed. Your family gets a written plan everyone can see. Nobody signs anything, and nobody decides anything today.
Mostly multiple choice. Saves as you go. No account needed to start.
And it doesn’t have to be a parent — an aunt, an uncle, a lifelong friend. Anyone whose plan you’d want to know.
How it works
They answer
Eight short sections. About twenty minutes. Plain words for plain subjects — driving, money, the house — mostly choosing the answer that sounds like them.
You read them, not a summary
Every answer is kept in their words and surfaces in the plan as a quotation with their name on it. Where they agree, where they don’t, and the two or three things nobody knew.
The plan writes itself
A written family plan: agreed decision triggers, the documents their state actually uses, what exists near them and what it costs, and a 90-day list.
Free to start. One price to finish.
One payment, no subscription. Your plan doesn’t expire.
- The first two sections — what matters most, and home & place
- Your family snapshot: where they stand, in their own words
- Licensed care community counts near the ZIP codes they chose
- All eight sections — help & driving, caregiving, money & paperwork, health decisions, if one goes first, afterward
- The written family plan, shareable with everyone
- Decision triggers the whole family agrees to in advance
- State-specific document checklist (both states, if they split the year)
- Licensed assisted living + Medicare-rated nursing & home health near their ZIPs
- The next-90-days list
Why this exists
I watched friend after friend scramble when a parent got sick. Then my mother-in-law, recently widowed, landed in the hospital, and I spent weeks scouring the internet for options. Somewhere in there I realized I had never asked my own parents the basic questions. Where do they want to live? What will their savings cover? What do they expect from me and my sister?
I didn’t want to wait for an emergency to find out. So I made the questionnaire I couldn’t find: one my parents would actually finish, that got all of us on the same page while it was still just a conversation at the kitchen table.
Their Plan is that tool. I hope you’ll use it to ask your parents while asking is easy, or to tell your own family what you want before they have to guess.
We don’t take referral fees, you get the whole picture.
The big referral sites are free because communities pay them thousands of dollars when your parent moves in — so you only see who’s paying. We show you what exists near them and what it costs, from state licensing records and Medicare’s public data. Every licensed community shows up and nobody can pay to be recommended. The $25 is the only money in it, and it comes from you — so we work for you.
Fair questions
Is this a legal document?
No. This isn’t a will, a directive, or a power of attorney. It’s the conversation that makes those easy to write — the plan lists exactly which documents their state uses and what to bring to the attorney.
What if it’s not my parent?
The questions work the same for anyone whose future you care about — an aunt or uncle, a godmother, an older friend or neighbor, or a person planning on their own behalf. Nothing in the plan assumes children. The first question asks who’s filling it out, and everything after that is written around the person and the people they trust.
My parent will never do this.
It starts with what they want to protect, not what they’re giving up, and it can be done with you reading the questions aloud at the kitchen table. Answering commits no one to anything — reluctant is fine. The best time to ask is on an ordinary day.
Where do the answers go?
Answers save on the device they're typed on. They're shared only when your family chooses to generate and send the plan. We don't sell data — we don't even take referral fees.
What if my parents disagree with each other?
Each person answers separately, and the plan shows both answers side by side. Surfacing the disagreement on paper, early, is most of the value.
