I sat down with my coffee at 6:48 a.m. and read one page about my kid. Not a parenting book. Not a Reddit thread. One page, specific to his age, telling me what the world looks like from where he is standing right now.
What you actually get

No account required to start. No timer. No streak to protect.

By 6:50 I was done. By dinner I actually used it. Not because I remembered a framework. Because I had one specific thing in my head and a moment opened up.
That is what Compass does. One read, one thing to try, matched to your child's stage. It takes less time than checking the weather.
Nobody handed you this. There is no manual that arrives when a kid does. Compass is the closest thing to one page of that manual — delivered the day you need it.
The rest of Anchor is there when you need it. Repair walks you through what to say after a hard moment. Paths are short evening programs for the weeks when things feel stuck. All of it is free. Not a trial. Not a teaser. Every feature is included, no conditions.
Two minutes in the morning. One thing to try. That is the whole ask.
Straight answers
Questions dads actually ask
Is this actually free or is there a catch?
Free. Every feature is included. No conditions, no timer, nothing locked.
My kid is 3. My neighbor's kid is 11. Is this the same content?
No. Compass is specific to your child's age and stage. What you read today is not what a dad with a toddler reads — the stage shapes everything.
I have two minutes in the morning, max. Is that enough?
That is exactly what it is built for. One read, one thing to try. It fits inside a cup of coffee.
What if I miss a day?
Nothing resets. There is no streak, no penalty, no guilt. Open it when you have a minute.
What else is in the app?
Repair walks you through what to say after you lose your temper. Paths are short guided programs for hard stretches. Compass is the daily read. All three are free and available the moment you open the app.
Do I have to create an account?
You can start immediately. The app asks for your child's age so Compass knows what to show you. That is the whole setup.
