Kept Civil
For co-parents and couples who've split up

Say what needs saying. Leave the fight out.

Email your ex through Kept Civil. It takes out the blame, sarcasm and personal jabs, keeps every fact, and shows you the calm version before anything is sent. Their replies come back the same way, and they don't need to sign up.

Sign-up needs an invite code for now.

What you write Oh wow, you remembered you have kids? Pick them up at 3pm Saturday from my mum's. Don't be late AGAIN.
You check it, then Kept Civil sends
What they receive Hi Sam,

Please pick up the kids at 3pm Saturday from my mum's. Please be on time.

How it works

No new app to learn. You keep using your own email.

Sign up

Add your email and your ex's. You get a private address to write to them.

Write as you normally would

Email that address. Don't worry about the tone.

Check the calm version

See the rewrite and every fact it kept. Edit it if you like. Nothing goes until you approve.

Replies come back calm too

Their emails are rewritten the same way before they reach you.

Built so you can trust it

You approve every message

Nothing is ever sent in your name without you seeing it first.

Every fact kept

Times, dates, amounts and requests stay exactly as you wrote them, and we flag anything that changed.

Privacy matters

Messages are rewritten using OpenAI's API, which does not train on API data by default. Our stored message content is deleted after 30 days. See our privacy policy for provider retention.

Threats aren't softened

Threats and safety concerns are held, not rewritten, and the person they're aimed at is told.

For both kinds of break-up

Co-parenting

  • Pick-ups and handovers
  • School, clubs and costs
  • Holidays and birthdays

Sorting out the practical side

  • Who keeps the sofa
  • Rent, bills and the deposit
  • Collecting belongings, and the pets

Calmer emails start with the next one

It takes two minutes to set up.
