Idea

We are the "Blinkist for parents". We source parenting content from the world top experts, boil it down to the essence and create short audio formats that make parenting easier.

Parents can listen to our audio content via a web-based platform. We have audio courses, individual inputs and inspirations. All sessions are bite-size, so parents can easily listen to them as part of their daily routines.

Current Status

>> The company is incorporated ✅
>> We have problem-solution fit ✅
>> Our product is on the market since March 2021 (= web platform with more than 100 audio sessions on parenting) ✅
>> We have the first paying customers (B2C subscription) ✅
>> First business angel round closed in spring 2021 ✅

Problem or Opportunity

We asked over 1,500 parents and 75 percent find family life challenging.
80 percent of parents are actively looking for parenting support. But parents don’t have time to read books, take online classes or go to seminars.

At the same time, audio content is gaining traction in many spaces (Blinkist = knowledge, Headspace/Calm = meditation, femtasy = erotic content for women). We are building the app for parents to rely on when raising their kids.

Solution (product or service)

Our solution: FamilyPunk is the digital coach for busy parents. We source parenting content from the world top experts, boil it down to the essence and create short audio formats. In our audio format, we provide parents with knowledge, strategies and a positive mindset to raise their kids.

We offer our content on a web-based platform. We have audio courses, individual inputs and inspirations. All Sessions are bite-size, so parents can easily listen to them as part of their daily routines.

Competitors

The competition in ParentTech is focused more on community-building or baby and child content (e.g. community: Momunity, mello, barrio // baby and child content: kinedu, babycenter, keleya).

We focus on content for the parents. Our secret sauce is content “to-go” that changes parenting habits sustainably and makes families happier.

Alternatives to FamilyPunk are blogs, books, online magazines and podcasts on parenting.
