About Wardline

What is Wardline?

Wardline LLC builds secure software for decisions that matter between people who need a clear, fair record of what was agreed. Its products are Wardline Co-Parent for families and Wardline Accord for collaborative family-law professionals.

How much will it cost?

Wardline Accord has published pricing. Pricing for Wardline Co-Parent isn't set yet. Across all our products, we've committed to: no feature tiers, so everyone gets the whole product; no advertising; we never sell your data; and exporting your record for legal proceedings will always be free.

Does this website use cookies or trackers?

No. This website sets no cookies of its own and has no analytics or advertising trackers. Pages with a request form use Cloudflare Turnstile to check you're a person. See our privacy policy.

Wardline Co-Parent

When will Wardline Co-Parent be available?

It's in private testing with a small number of families in the USA, and we haven't set a public launch date yet. Families in the USA can request a place in testing.

What devices will it work on?

Wardline Co-Parent runs on iPhone and iPad, Android phones and tablets, and the web.

Is it only for high-conflict co-parents?

No. It's built for everyday family life across households: split weeks, hybrid arrangements and blended families, whether parents get along easily or find it hard.

Does it work for families with more than two parents, or with step-parents?

Yes. There's no limit on the number of parents or guardians, and they all have equal standing. Step-parents, grandparents and other carers can join as household members, and a child can be linked between two households.

Does the other parent have to join?

You can set up your family on your own and invite the other parent when you're ready. It works best with everyone on board, though, because things like schedule swaps, expenses and handoffs are confirmed by the other person.

What happens if we can't agree?

Decisions that affect everyone need everyone's agreement. If you can't agree, the question goes to a shared mediator or coordinator you've both chosen. If you don't have one, it stays open until you resolve it. Wardline never takes sides or decides for you.

Can Wardline staff read our messages?

No. Our staff have no routine access to your records. In the rare case that someone needs to see real data to fix a problem, every parent must approve it. See Security.

Does AI read my messages?

Every message is checked by an automated safety screen before it's sent. A message with a threat or controlling language isn't sent. If a message sounds like you're going through a really hard time, it isn't sent either: only you see it, with places to get support. Your messages are never used to train AI models. The tone check is separate and optional: it suggests gentler wording, and you can always send your own.

Wardline Accord

Who is Accord for?

Professionals running collaborative family-law cases, such as co-parenting coaches, collaborative attorneys and mediators, together with the parties and the rest of the team. Two parents can also work on their plan themselves, after a short safety check, and bring in a professional later.

Which forms does it support?

Today, the Washington Parenting Plan (FL All Family 140) with all of its attachments, and the coach's worksheet. Each parent's Financial Declaration is next on the roadmap.

Do parties need an account?

No. Parties join with a personal invite link and a one-time code sent to their email. Professionals sign in with a passkey.

Is Accord legal advice?

No. Accord makes sure the form is completed correctly and consistently. The professionals bring the judgment.

Is it suitable for every case?

Today, Accord is for collaborative and cooperative cases, and for parents working on their own plan after a safety check. Protected cases, where limitations apply, and one-sided litigated cases are on the roadmap.

When will Accord be available?

It's in development, starting in Washington. Professionals can become design partners and help shape it.

Is Wardline legal advice?

No. Our products are tools. They don't give legal advice or replace a lawyer or mediator. For advice about your own situation, please speak to a qualified family-law professional.

Can I use my Wardline record in court?

Records are attributed, time-stamped and tamper-evident, and you can export them yourself. Whether and how a record is used is up to you, your lawyer and the court.

What happens to our data if we close our account?

In Co-Parent, closing the family's account needs every parent's agreement, and everyone then has 30 days to export their records. After that, the family's encryption key is destroyed and the content becomes permanently unreadable, including to us. Deleting an Accord case works the same way.
