A coordination app for teams, clubs & activity groups
Coaches get heard. Families stay in the loop.
One place for the announcement, the RSVP, the volunteer slot, and a calendar that has every kid, and every team.
The problem
The notification gets lost. Players end up at the wrong field.
Practice moved to 6, and forty replies buried it. Someone's parent didn't see the notification. Two families show up at the old field. And that's just one team ... most families are juggling many.
The buried post
Group chats treat every message the same. "Field change" and "great game!" get equal weight, and the important alert disappears under the replies.
Five apps per family
One for soccer, one for the swim club, one the coach set up last season, text threads, a million emails, and Google sheets that don't work on your phone.
The core solution
A feed that stays visible. RSVPs that work. Volunteer slots on the event, all in one app.
Deliberately simpler. Hey does the four things a program actually needs.
-
Announcements that don't drown
Coach posts and alerts go in the feed and don't get buried by replies.
-
Easy RSVPs all in one place
Parents (or players) can RSVP to every event for every player in one place, so coaches get an accurate count.
-
Volunteer slots on the real event
Snack signup, ride share, and gate duty, all attached to the event, not a separate site nobody bookmarks.
-
Events with all the details
One place for everything from dates to parking info to important links.
The unique thing
One calendar. Every kid. Every team.
No more switching between calendars. One view, all your kids' activities, sorted by the person who actually has to drive them.
- Every child, every team, in one place
- Sort by Player or Team
- See attendance and conflicts before they're a problem
- Works when both parents open the same event
Not just sports
Your kid's volleyball team, your other kid's theater, and the dance studio ... all in one place.
Hey works for any group that meets on a schedule and needs people to show up. Coaches, organizers, and leaders use it. Families see one view.
Season teams, tournaments, practice changes, coach-to-parents coordination.
Rehearsals, cast announcements, tech-week logistics, dress runs.
Meetings, activities, volunteering, driver signups.
Section rehearsals, concert dates, uniform pickup, parent volunteers.
Ride and hike schedules, trailhead logistics, weather calls, gear reminders.
If it has a schedule, and a group that needs to hear things, Hey works.
The promise
Free for families, and no ads.
As a parent you didn't choose the app, so you won't pay for it, and you won't have to watch a full-screen ad before you can get that address. Teams pay a fair rate for Hey, families never do. That's the deal.
Built by a coach
Made by a coach and parent.
I'm a youth MTB coach, have helped with club Ultimate Frisbee, and I'm a parent to kids in many activities. I built Hey because every tool I tried was either bloated with ads and features I don't need, or a group chat where the important stuff gets drowned out by dinner time.
Hey is in testing with real teams right now. Coaches are running their seasons on it. Families are seeing everything for the first time. If that sounds useful, join the list.
Get on the list.
We'll say hi when Hey is open. One email, that's it.
