For couples, families & roommates · iOS
Dibs turns who-does-what into who-called-it. Claim your part before your crew does — and come home to a house that runs itself.
Free early access · Set up in three questions · Backed by what the research actually says about happy homes
The real problem
01 / 07The 9pm “did you take the trash out” text. The silent scoreboard nobody admits to keeping. The list that lives in one person’s head: that’s the heaviest thing in the house.
Dibs takes the list out of your head and puts it where everyone can grab it. Chores stop being assigned and start being claimed, on purpose, out loud, before anyone has to ask.
No nagging. No scorekeeping. Just a crew that sees the week and calls their part.
The part nobody sees
02 / 07Not the dishes. The remembering. The background thread that runs through a meeting: did the trash go out, whose week is it for pickup, is anyone tracking the thing that’s due Thursday. That thread has a name, and research has finally measured it.
Dibs owns the remembering. The list lives on the wheel, not in your head. Claim it once and it lands on your calendar, nothing left to carry silently through a workday.
How it works
03 / 07STEP 01
The whole chore list sits in front of you as blocks — bigger job, bigger block. Tap one, pick the day and time on the dial, and it’s locked to your name before anyone else gets there.
STEP 02
Your wheel shows exactly what’s yours this week. Tap your housemate’s photo and you’re looking at theirs. Everyone’s week, one tap away, nobody has to ask.
STEP 03
Check it off and the slice on your wheel goes dim. Credit lands where it should: one glance at the wheel says who showed up, no announcement required.

Your weekOwn it
7:58 PMDone. Dimmed.
The crew felt that.
Built for real households
05 / 07Every claimed chore sits on the ring as a wedge — bigger job, longer wedge. Finish it and the wedge dims. Tap a housemate’s photo and you’re looking at their wheel instead.
Who’s home, how many in the crew, what matters most. Dibs drafts the household’s standing chore list, and it lives there until someone deletes it, not just for the week.
Claimed chores drop straight into iCloud or Google Calendar. Your Tuesday knows about the recycling before you do.
Pin a note the whole crew sees. “We’re out of coffee” hits different when everyone reads it.
Points that celebrate, never scold. Every claim earns hearts the whole crew can see.
A gentle read on how the home is running — momentum, not report cards.
The moments we’re building this for
06 / 07
“We stopped keeping score the week we got it. I didn’t realize how loud the scoreboard was until it went quiet.”
Maya, 34 · uses Dibs with her partner · Brooklyn
“My roommates and I haven’t had a ‘whose turn is it’ text in a month. A month.”
Devon, 29 · uses Dibs with three housemates · Austin
“It’s the first chore app that doesn’t make me feel like a hall monitor. The kids race to call the easy ones.”
Sandra, 47 · uses Dibs with her family of four · Chicago
Illustrative households, not (yet) live reviews — Dibs is pre-launch. These are the exact conversations our research above is describing.

What the research says
Before you ask
07 / 07Free during early access. Get in now, help shape it, and keep the good karma. Pricing comes later — early crews will hear it from us first.
The wheel makes the week visible to everyone: open chores sit there, in everyone’s pocket, quietly asking. You never have to be the one who says it. Most crews find the open slices get claimed faster than they expect; turns out people step up when stepping up is visible.
All three. Two people or seven, kids included — if they can tap, they can call it. Every member gets their own color on the wheel.
Yes, and it’s not just a nice idea. Research on couples finds that agreeing on who’s doing what predicts relationship satisfaction better than who’s actually doing more of it.4 Seeing the same week matters more than getting the math exactly right. That’s the whole bet behind the wheel.
No. The invisible-remembering research isn’t limited to couples. The same recurring-vs-one-off structure shows up wherever people share a household and responsibilities.8 The wheel doesn’t care who’s dating who; it just needs everyone’s chores in one place.
Yes. Claimed chores land on your calendar automatically, so “Thursday: trash” lives next to “Thursday: standup.” Your week, one place.
iPhone first. Android is on the list, and yes, someone already called dibs on building it.
Your crew’s waiting
Three questions to set up. Three seconds to call your first chore. A home that runs itself, starting tonight.
