    We're a startup in Austin, TX, building an app for families and their extended families (called a "Tribe"). We're working at the intersection of social and productivity for families. We're creating something big (we hope) that can be used by families all around the world. The app has ten integrated features including ways to capture day to day information (contacts, notes, lists, calendar), as well as mid- and long-term value (assets, health, financials, insurance). The app is unique in trying to get the whole family on board (even kids) and trying to offer families a way to inter-operate between their families and relatives (like siblings, grandparents, and even close family friends).

    Launch in the fall of 2016: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/stretch-for-families/id1134652385?mt=8

    We've raised money from angel investors so far and are starting to talk to organizations with a strong passion for family and the giant technology gap for families currently.

    We're looking for cool, motivated, and talented mobile (iOS and Android) developers to join our current team.
