Most chore apps are a glorified to-do list with your partner's name on it. That's fine if the only thing splitting a household is who loads the dishwasher tonight. It's not fine when the real question is why does one person always remember that the dishwasher needs loading in the first place?
ChoreChamp started with that second question. The visible work — dishes, laundry, trash — is only part of the load. The planning, the tracking, the mental "don't forget" loop is the rest. We wanted an app that treats both as real.
What makes ChoreChamp different
- Burden levels. Not every chore costs the same energy. Taking the trash out is light. Planning a week of meals, shopping for them, and rotating what everyone will actually eat is heavy. ChoreChamp lets you tag each task so the split isn't just "we each did five things."
- Task bankruptcy. Weeks happen. When one person is maxed out, a single tap files a bankruptcy — a formal "I need help" that restructures the queue instead of silently dropping balls.
- Recurring without nagging. Daily, weekly, monthly — tasks auto-regenerate on completion, so you plan once and let the app handle the rhythm.
- Built for families and roommates. Same app, same mechanics, whether you're two adults splitting a flat or four people raising kids together.
