The one-liner
Hearthwick is a shared care circle for adult siblings caring for an aging parent — medication reminders with dose logging, shared tasks, appointments, and a care log, synced to every family member in real time.
The slightly longer version
When a parent starts needing help, the coordination usually lives in a group chat — and group chats lose things. Hearthwick gives the family one shared circle per parent: medications with reminder times and per-dose logging (given, skipped, or unsure), tasks siblings can claim, appointment reminders for everyone, and a running care log. A daily handoff view shows what happened today and what needs attention, attributed to who did it — so the sibling who lives far away finally has real visibility, and the one who lives close stops being the family's news service. Core features are free for unlimited family members; one Premium subscription (AI weekly digest, record exports, multiple circles) covers the whole circle. Reminders are never behind a paywall.
The founder story
Hearthwick is built by Jonathan Raymer, a solo developer and founder of Raymer Software, Inc. (Minnesota), out of the sandwich-generation moment most families hit: several adult siblings, one aging parent, and a group text that kept dropping the ball. It launched on the App Store in August 2026 as a genuinely one-person product — design through App Review.
