I’ve been working on something to help our family plan things better. We have two kids now in elementary school and both involved in extra activities. Registration dates, birthdays, game times, etc. are a lot to keep track of. We both have work and personal calendars and never sat down to plan which calendar gets what. Maybe that would’ve been easier! In any case, I built Mavo to try and centralize that stuff and see if I can make it more proactive than just a calendar.

You send it your events via email, online, in-app, or text message even, and it puts it into your calendar for you, letting you know if there’s conflicts and keeping track of who is assigned to what, not just who’s attending or not. My goal is to have it proactively notify you when there’s potential issues like rain, traffic, or something else.

You can connect it to ChatGPT, Claude, or other agent through MCP so you don’t even have to use the built-in AI. And there’s an API, SDK and CLI for those who want to tinker and build custom displays or interactions.

There’s an always-free version to get started and try it out. You can find it at https://mavolife.com
