Quick answer: OptiAI® is a family planner that homeschool families use for the weekly schedule, per-child records and milestones, chores and the household budget. It is not a curriculum tool. Full Access is free forever on web, iOS and Android.
Updated October 2026. We make OptiAI, so please check other products' current pages before you decide.
What it helps with
- A weekly schedule that combines lessons, activities and appointments.
- Per-child records and milestones.
- Chores and routines so the load is not all on one parent.
- Planning curriculum and activity costs next to the family budget.
How families set it up
Put the fixed weekly rhythm on the shared calendar, colored by child. Add routines for morning and bedtime and assign chores so kids own part of the day. Use the budget to keep curriculum and activity costs visible next to everything else.
Records and notes
Per-child records, milestones and health logs live with each child. Check your own local requirements for record-keeping, since rules differ by place and OptiAI does not provide legal advice. OptiAI Education is a separate family-side companion; see OptiAI for Schools.
What it is not
OptiAI is a general family organizer. It does not supply lessons or curriculum. Many families pair it with whatever curriculum they already use.
A sample weekly rhythm
Many homeschool families anchor the week with a few fixed blocks: a morning start routine, focused learning time, a midday break with chores, and afternoon activities or outings. Put those blocks on the calendar, colored by child, then add appointments, co-op days and lessons around them.
Keep a short list of weekly tasks per child on the same calendar so progress is visible without a separate planner. Adjust each month as interests and schedules change.
Sharing the load between adults
When two adults share the teaching, put each person's subjects or days on the shared calendar so everyone knows who is leading. Assign household tasks to specific people so the teacher is not also automatically the cook and the cleaner. A short weekly check-in to adjust the plan prevents resentment building up.
Budgeting for materials and outings
Curriculum, supplies, memberships and trips add up through the year. Setting a monthly limit for learning costs alongside groceries and bills helps you see the whole picture. This is planning information only and not financial advice; adjust the figures to fit your own circumstances.
