Tend gives you a 30-second daily ritual — built on 40 years of Gottman research — that keeps closeness from drifting away.
Built on 40 years of relationship research from the Gottman Institute, Tend learns the rhythm of your relationships and sends you a gentle nudge at exactly the right moment — with exactly the right thing to say or do.
Not reminders. Not generic tips. Nudges that sound like the best version of you:
"It's been 8 days since you and Sarah talked. She values words of affirmation — a quick voice note would make her week."
"Your mom mentioned her garden last call. Ask how the tomatoes are doing."
DAILY PULSE CHECKS
One question. You both answer. Then reveal together. A 30-second ritual that turns "how was your day?" into something real.
WARMTH SIGNALS
Send a quiet "thinking of you," "I need space," or "I'm proud of you" — for when a text feels like too much or not enough.
GAMES THAT SPARK REAL CONVERSATION
Three multiplayer games — Deeper, Guess Who Said It, and Hot Seat — that turn screen time into genuine connection. 600+ questions across every level of closeness.
AI-GUIDED CONVERSATIONS
For the hard moments. Grounded in Nonviolent Communication and Emotionally Focused Therapy. Not a replacement for a therapist — a bridge for when something needs to be said and you don't know how.
Tend works for every relationship that matters: partners, parents, best friends, siblings. Because the people closest to you deserve more than autopilot.
Start tending.
The playfulness of the nudges and pulse questions make it fun to show that I love and I care about my husband and also my children. Surprisingly, my husband has also started using the app on a daily basis.
