Question 1

What is Tribe-OS?

Accepted Answer

Tribe-OS is a family operating system (FOS) — a single app where a household manages shared calendars, chores with reward points, smart shopping lists, expenses and bills, and optional live family location. Premium tiers add Nora, an AI voice assistant that auto-detects bills from Gmail, generates monthly expense reports, and helps plan the family calendar.

Question 2

Is Tribe-OS free to use?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The Daily Family Engine plan is free and includes the shared timeline, chore tracking with rewards, shopping lists, expense tracking, and sticky notes for up to 7 members. Tribe-OS Elite ($7.99/month) adds live location, Google Calendar sync and the Ambient Command Center; Tribe-OS AI Premium ($14.99/month) adds the Nora AI assistant.

Question 3

Does one subscription cover the whole family?

Accepted Answer

Yes. One subscription powers the whole tribe — when any member upgrades, every family member automatically unlocks all features with no per-seat fees.

Question 4

Is my family's data private and safe for children?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Every record is protected by row-level security so data is only visible to your own tribe's signed-in members. Child profiles require verified parental consent, location sharing is opt-in per person, and parents control child privacy settings from the Trust dashboard.
