NestBoard
Tell it about your household and it builds a realistic chore schedule, sorted by how often each thing actually needs doing. Adjust anything, then print it for the fridge. No account, no AI.
Most chore charts fail because they assign everything to a day, and real life does not cooperate. The trick that actually holds up is to group tasks by how often they need doing, then pin only the daily non-negotiables and let everything else float to whoever has time. Vacuuming does not care whether it is Tuesday. It cares that it happens about once a week, and more often if you have a shedding pet on carpet.
This planner does that math for you. It knows that four cats means daily litter scooping, that carpet plus pets needs an extra hair pass, that a big household runs laundry most days in smaller batches, and that a house with a yard picks up a mow in season. Every suggestion comes with a short reason, so you can trust it or change it.
If cleaning is harder for you, because of ADHD, chronic pain, a demanding job, or all three, turn on those options. The plan gets shorter on purpose: it drops the nice-to-have tasks, stops assigning anything to a fixed day, and adds gentle strategies like timers and splitting heavy work across the week. A short chart that gets finished beats a perfect one that gets ignored, every time.
NestBoard is the app version of this plan: chores rotate between family members automatically, completions earn points and streaks, and it lives on a spare tablet in the kitchen where everyone can see it. The chart never needs reprinting and nobody has to remember whose week it is. It is free to try for two weeks, no card required.
A realistic baseline: dishes, a quick tidy, and litter boxes daily; floors, bathrooms, sheets, and towels weekly; hard floors every week or two; baseboards, filters, and fans monthly; oven, windows, and deep tasks seasonally. This planner adjusts those frequencies based on your pets, floor types, household size, and yard.
No. It is a plain rule-based planner. You tell it about your household and it applies sensible cleaning frequencies, so every suggestion is explainable and consistent. No account, no AI, no data leaves your browser.
Yes, that is exactly who it is built for. Turn on the ADHD, chronic pain, or limited time options and the plan shortens: it drops the non-essential tasks, stops pinning things to fixed days so anything weekly or longer can float to whoever has capacity, and adds tips like setting a 10-minute timer and counting "started" as a win.
Every task has a frequency dropdown and a remove button, so you can nudge it to match your life. Change "weekly" to "every 2 weeks," drop what does not apply, then print the chart for your fridge.
