Lyven is the household system that actually holds — so two careers and one home don't quietly fall to one person. See how the work really divides, then keep it that way.
Two minutes. No sign-up to see your split.
Running a home is real work — invisible, unconsciously shared, and easy to argue about because no one can quite see it. Lyven turns it into something you can look at together and agree on.
Every job has a single person who carries it — not a roster that hands the mental load back and forth until it goes grey. Someone can step in for a night; ownership never moves.
We weight every job by the time and effort it really takes, then show you the balance. 60/40 can be exactly right for you. It's a picture you choose together — never a scoreboard.
Every split drifts. Ours doesn't — because the split becomes your operating system: groceries, meals, the week ahead quietly keep ownership exactly where you put it.
The outer ring is how the work divides right now. The inner ring is the split you'd choose if you set it on purpose. The gap between them is the conversation worth having.
Most couples have never actually measured how the work divides — they just feel it. The Split Check shows you for real, with a few quick questions.
A free 2-minute tool — see your split, no sign-up.
The spreadsheet, the shared note, the big fair conversation — they all work for a while, then quietly slide back to one person carrying it. The decay isn't a bug. It's what household systems do.
Lyven's answer is the part nothing else has: the split becomes wired into how you run your home together. Keeping the home running is keeping the split alive.
The split is where you start. The app is where it lives — a ten-minute Sunday ritual, then a week that quietly runs itself. It's what beta households are using right now.
Ten minutes together at the end of the week. Each of you writes how you're really going and one thing you appreciated — sealed until you've both written, so no one just reacts to the other. Then you plan the week ahead in one sitting: dinners, who's out, what's coming up. The app takes it from there.
Wake up already knowing the day — who's on, what's for dinner, what's due.
Every job is a card with one clear owner and a shared definition of done.
Groceries in sync on both phones — shop several lists in one trip, each keeping its owner.
Plan the week and the ingredients flow straight onto the shop.
Break a big job into steps and share them — one person holds the thread.
A quiet heads-up when something's due or the check-in's open. Never a scoreboard.
Ready to run your home from one calm place?
Free while in beta. We bring households in a few at a time.
For decades, Australian families have shifted toward both partners working — and increasingly, both full-time. For most households, a second income isn't a choice anymore — it's how the bills get paid.
But running a home takes as much work as it ever did. When both people work full-time, that work doesn't vanish — it lands on whoever isn't looking. Lyven makes sure it's shared on purpose, so two full lives actually fit under one roof.
It's free while in beta. We let households in a few at a time so we can look after each one. Leave your email and we'll bring you in.
We'll only use your email to manage the beta waitlist. See our Privacy Policy.

Lyven is a household-management app that measures how domestic work divides between two partners and keeps the split fair over time, so two careers and one home don't quietly fall to one person.
The Split Check is a free, two-minute tool that shows how household work currently divides between partners, based on a few quick questions. It needs no sign-up.
Lyven is in a free beta. Anyone can join the waitlist, and we open spots to new households in small waves. The Split Check is free to use with no account required.
No. Lyven weights every job by the time and effort it really takes, then shows your real balance. A 60/40 split can be exactly right for your household — fair is the split you choose on purpose, not an even count of tasks.
Unlike a shared to-do list, every job on Lyven has one clear owner rather than a roster that hands the mental load back and forth. The split stays wired into how you run your home — groceries, meals and the week ahead — so it doesn't quietly drift back onto one person.
A ten-minute ritual you do together at the end of the week. Each of you writes how you're really going and one thing you appreciated — sealed until you've both written, so no one just reacts to the other. Then you plan the week ahead in one sitting: dinners, who's out, what's coming up. The app carries that plan through the days.
Lyven is private by design with Australian hosting. The Split Check requires no account, and beta data is handled under Lyven's privacy policy.
