Parent-Centered
Built for the real challenges parents face in custody cases.
THE FOUNDER
Built by a Family Law Attorney Who Saw a Better Way.
After more than a decade representing parents in family court, I created Custio to solve a problem I saw again and again: important information was everywhere, but parents didn’t have an easy way to turn it into a clear, organized record.

WHY I BUILT CUSTIO
I kept seeing the same problem.
Parents would come to me with screenshots, text messages, emails, photos, calendars, and notes scattered across various apps. They knew what had happened, but turning all of that information into a clear, organized record was overwhelming.
At the same time, many parents were navigating the process on their own. They couldn’t afford an attorney or a team of experts, yet they still needed to keep track of months or years of custody and visitation issues.
I saw how hard it was to see the bigger picture when information is scattered. It’s not one missed visit. It’s eight missed visits in three months. It’s not one late exchange. It’s being late 40% of the time. It’s a pattern that becomes visible only when the information is organized.
That’s why I created Custio. Custio gives parents a better way to document what happens, preserve important information, and identify patterns—so they can stay informed and advocate for themselves and their children.
“One late exchange is an event. Being late 40% of the time is a pattern.”
A PERSONAL MISSION
Better Tools for Real Families.
Custody cases are complicated. Keeping track of them shouldn’t be. Custio gives parents practical tools to organize their records, understand what’s happening, and feel more in control.
Beyond the product, the goal is to make the process a little less overwhelming for parents navigating custody matters, including those without legal representation.
