What does OurFamilyWizard actually do?#
OFW puts co-parenting communication on one documented platform. Per its site:
- Messages with first-viewed timestamps, plus ToneMeter and the Writing Assistant, which suggest calmer wording. OFW says the suggestions are yours to use, edit or skip.
- Calendar for parenting time, with change requests and event import.
- Expenses tracked and reimbursed through OFWpay.
- Calls by video and audio, documented, with recording and transcription on Max.
- GPS-verified check-ins at exchanges.
- Info Bank for health, school and safety information.
- Records as downloadable PDFs, or certified records that are notarized, printed and mailed.
- Free accounts for children, extended family and caregivers, with limited access.
What this means for you: the platform's value is the record. Messages, requests and payments all leave a timestamped trail that either parent, and their professionals, can export.
How much does OurFamilyWizard cost?#
OurFamilyWizard plans per parent (ourfamilywizard.com/plans-and-pricing, checked 2026-10-15)
Basic
$110/year or $220 for two years; 1 GB storage; receive-only calls; OFWpay as an add-on
Essentials
$149.99/year or $276 for two years; Writing Assistant; 45 call min/month; GPS check-ins; unlimited PDF records; 5 GB

The pricing page offers a full refund within the first 30 days, with a note that refund policies vary by platform, so app-store purchases may follow the store's rules. OFW also runs a fee waiver program and a military family discount.
Parents don't have to be on the same plan. Expect a difference in features when one parent buys Basic and the other buys Max.
Which plan should a client choose?#
- Basic is enough for messaging, the calendar and expense tracking when records are unlikely to matter.
- Essentials fits most families who want a documented record. It adds the Writing Assistant, outgoing calls and unlimited PDF records.
- Premium makes sense when certified, notarized records may be needed, or when calls are frequent.
- Max adds call recording and transcription, which some families want for documented calls.
What do users say about OurFamilyWizard?#
The feedback we found is limited. Parents in high-conflict or safety-sensitive situations tend to favor the fuller plans for unlimited calls, and users like the expense feature that totals who owes whom. Some ask whether the top plan is worth the extra cost when calls are rare.
How do professionals use OurFamilyWizard?#
OFW offers free access for legal and mental health professionals. With a client's permission, you can view account activity, download records and work with the client in the app. OFW also has a practitioner program, client brochures, and sample order language on its site for courts and practitioners.
How hard is OurFamilyWizard to set up?#
Low. Each parent creates an account, buys a plan and links to the other parent. Add children and third parties as needed, and invite professionals.
Buyer tips#
- Suggest Essentials as the baseline when a documented record matters.
- Check which records format is acceptable before relying on PDFs instead of certified records.
- Buy on the web if refund flexibility matters.
