Make the hard moments a little softer.
Be Ausome is a small studio building free tools for the people in a kid's corner: parents, grandparents, teachers, therapists. Type what's happening, and get something calm to put in a kid's hands.
No signup, no account. Nothing about your child is ever stored.
We make the thing the moment needs, the one a parent can put in a kid's hands and feel, for two minutes, like the hard part just got a little easier.
Small tools, made with care.
Each one does a few things well, costs nothing, and respects your family's privacy completely.
Squared Steps
Visual supports you can make in about 60 seconds.
Type what's happening, like tomorrow's dentist, a tough morning, or a haircut, and get back a clean, calm, printable support. Picture icons auto-match as you type, there's a no-typing "right now" mode for the hard moments, and 44 ready-made moments to start from. Fully bilingual, English and Spanish.
More on the way
Be Ausome is just getting started. We're building more free, privacy-first tools for autism families, each one shaped by a real moment, not a roadmap in a boardroom.
"Words are hard for him, but his presence speaks volumes."
I'm Dave. My son Dylan is autistic. I've made hundreds of visual schedules for him, on hard mornings and good ones.
I started Be Ausome so the next parent doesn't have to begin from scratch at 10pm the night before something hard. Everything here is built from lived experience, given away for free, and made to be trusted: nothing about your child is ever stored.
Be Ausome is the hood the tools live under. Squared Steps is the first. There will be more.
Dave
A few things we won't compromise on.
Privacy, completely
Nothing about your child is stored. Ever. No accounts, no tracking, no selling data. What you type stays on your device.
Free, and staying free
No paywall, no "premium," no signup wall between a parent and the help they need tonight.
Made from lived experience
Built by a dad who's lived these moments, not a committee. Every tool earns its place by helping a real kid.
For everyone in a kid's corner
Parents, grandparents, teachers, therapists, sitters. English and Spanish, with equal care for both.
Got a moment we should build for?
Ideas, feedback, a hard moment you wish had a tool. I read every message.
