Fair Share.
See who's really carrying the house.
Most chore apps count ticks, so ten thirty-second jobs outrank one afternoon scrubbing the oven. The Shack weighs every chore by its effort — Standard, Big or Major — and Fair Share shows each person's true load: chores, bills paid, expenses logged and shopping handled, weighted, charted and comparable.

When the balance drifts, Harmony — The Shack's AI coach — reads the numbers and writes a kind, blame-free note: who deserves a thank-you, what could be handed over, and when everything's actually fine and nobody needs to say anything at all.
Why houses use it
Weighted, not just counted
Chores carry an effort weight, so the load chart reflects real work — the mental-load conversation finally has honest numbers.
Weekly trends
A per-week chart shows how the balance moves over 7 to 90 days, not just a single snapshot.
Harmony, the no-blame AI coach (Pro)
A weekly AI reading that suggests thank-yous and gentle rebalances — and explicitly never shames anyone.
Anonymise before you share
Hide names and export the chart as a PNG or CSV, so the house can talk about the data without making it about a person.

Open Fair Share for the weighted picture, or wait for Harmony's weekly note.

Common questions
How is this different from just counting chores?
Every chore carries an effort weight (Standard ×1, Big ×2, Major ×3), so Fair Share compares weighted load, not tick counts. Someone doing three oven deep-cleans has carried more than someone ticking five 30-second jobs — and the chart says so.
Will it shame whoever's behind?
No — that's a design rule. Harmony's single most important instruction is to never blame or guilt-trip; it frames imbalances as thank-yous and gentle handovers, stays quiet when things are even, and you can anonymise names entirely.
What if someone does lots around the house but doesn't log it?
Harmony is told exactly that pattern looks like — near-zero app actions — and treats it as 'not logging', never 'not contributing'.
