Voice Invites

Say "Pool party Saturday" or "Soccer practice carpool Tuesday" and the invite writes itself. Hands-free for when you're wrangling toddlers.

AI That Gets It

Recess understands natural language. It extracts the what, when, where โ€” and suggests the right parent group to invite.

RSVP Tracking

See who's in, who's out, and who hasn't responded โ€” all in one place. No more scrolling through a 47-message group chat.
