NotAlone: Neurodiversity & AI
Neurodiverse Parents Support
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
NotAlone has a whole new look. Track moods, sleep, and daily wins, spot your child's patterns, and get support from your AI companion — in a calmer, clearer redesign
Parenting a neurodiverse child is full of moments you can't explain to anyone - and patterns you can feel but can't quite prove. NotAlone changes that.
Built for parents of children with autism, ADHD, sensory processing differences, or any neurodevelopmental diagnosis, NotAlone turns your daily observations into behavioral intelligence - and shares it directly with the people caring for your child.
TODAY'S BRIEF
Each morning, NotAlone's AI generates a personalized summary of your child's recent behavioral patterns - and gives you one specific action to try today. Not generic parenting advice. A brief built from your family's own data.
DAILY TRACKERS
Log what matters in under a minute:
• Mood - capture your child's emotional state each day and see how it shifts over time
• Sleep - record last night's rest and discover how sleep quality connects to behavior
• Meltdown - log difficult moments in real time, including triggers, duration, and intensity. The Meltdown Decoder analyzes patterns across weeks so you can finally understand what's driving them
• Activity - track what your child did today to build a fuller behavioral picture
• Check-in - score daily wellness across key areas to monitor overall wellbeing
• Reflect the Day - your own daily parent check-in, so your observations are never lost
WEEKLY PATTERN INSIGHT
Every week, NotAlone surfaces what your logs reveal - mood trends, sleep shifts, meltdown frequency, behavioral changes - automatically. No digging required.
YOUR JOURNEY
Step-by-step milestone guidance tailored to your child's age, diagnosis, and current stage. Always know what to focus on next.
CARE TEAM CONNECTED
Your child's therapist, BCBA, and pediatrician each hold a piece of the picture. NotAlone brings it together.
Share your child's behavioral data directly with their care team. Specialists see the same trends, logs, and patterns you've been tracking - so every appointment starts with the full picture, not a two-week memory gap.
When the whole team works from the same data, your child gets better support.
RESOURCES LIBRARY
Evidence-based articles, guides, and expert insights on emotional regulation, social skills, sleep, communication, and more - curated specifically for neurodiverse families.
COMMUNITY
Connect with parents who genuinely understand what you're going through. Share experiences, find support, and know you are not navigating this alone.
MULTIPLE CHILDREN
Switch between child profiles in one tap. Each child gets their own Today's Brief, tracking history, and Journey milestones.
PRIVACY & SECURITY
Your family's data is private, encrypted, and never shared or sold. This is sensitive information about your child - we treat it that way.

Chat directly with the specialists and care teams in your network, right inside NotAlone. Send text and photos, see replies as they arrive, and pick up any conversation from the new Messages button on every main screen. A dot tells you when something is waiting.
Share tracking data with your specialists, on your terms
When you add a specialist to a child's team, you can now ask them to see that child's moods, sleep, check-ins and meltdown patterns. Nothing is shared until you confirm, and the team card shows whether the request is pending or active. Your private notes are never included.

This update is all about giving you more ways to advocate, connect, and save time.
IEP & 504 LETTER LIBRARY
Eight ready-to-send school letters - request an evaluation, an IEP meeting, a 504 plan, your child's records, and more. Every letter is pre-filled with your child's details and your school information, follows federal guidelines, and is ready to copy, share, or export as a PDF. Includes a meeting prep checklist for your next IEP conversation.
PRINTABLE ORGANIZATION TEMPLATES
An Emergency Info Card for babysitters and school, a Medical Binder index, and a Care Team contact list - all auto-filled from your child's profile and formatted for printing.
TALK TO YOUR AI COMPANION
Now you can speak instead of type: dictate messages with your voice and watch them appear live. You can also share photos your companion can see - a schedule, a worksheet, a moment from your day - and get thoughtful responses.
SIGN IN WITH FACE ID OR TOUCH ID
Skip the password. Opt in after signing in or anytime from settings. Your password is stored only in your device's secure keychain, unlocked by you alone.
