Most co-parents dread the custody talk, the money fight, and the holiday negotiation. Tough Talk turns those moments into something you can train for.

How it works

Training for the hardest conversations of your life.

One wrong word can escalate everything. Tough Talk helps you rehearse the pressure before it is real, then shows you exactly what to fix.

  1. 1. Pick a scenario

    Choose custody changes, holiday schedules, expenses, broken agreements, relocation, and more.

  2. 2. Choose your ex's style

    The AI adapts to how your ex communicates: aggressive, passive-aggressive, manipulative, or avoidant.

  3. 3. Have the conversation

    Practice a realistic text exchange that presses the exact buttons you are trying not to let control you.

  4. 4. Get scored

    See how you did on calm, child focus, and argumentation with a clear 1-10 breakdown.

  5. 5. Fix the weak moments

    Get better phrasing, tactical advice, and a clear view of where tension spiked.

Scenarios you can practice

Not generic conflict. Real co-parenting pressure.

Train for the moments that keep people awake at 3 a.m. and usually spiral fast when handled on the fly.

  • Changing the custody schedule
  • Your ex introduced a new partner to the kids
  • Splitting expenses for braces, camp, or tutoring
  • Your child refuses to visit the other parent
  • Your ex broke what was agreed
  • Dividing holidays and special occasions
  • One parent wants to relocate
  • Having the hardest conversation with your child

4 personality simulations

The AI does not play nice just because you want it to.

The Fighter

Loud, blaming, and threatening court.

The Sniper

Sarcastic, undermining, and emotionally needling.

The Actor

Guilt-tripping, manipulative, and constantly rewriting reality.

The Ghost

Deflecting, silent, and impossible to pin down.

Detailed feedback

Walk in prepared. Walk out proud.

After every session, Tough Talk shows where you stayed composed, where tension rose, and how to say the hard part better next time.

  • Calm Score: did you stay composed or escalate?
  • Child Focus Score: did you keep it about the kids?
  • Argumentation Score: were your points clear and constructive?
  • Tension Timeline: a visual map of where conflict spiked
  • Better Ways to Say It: your weakest lines rewritten with explanations
  • Tactical Advice: concrete tips for the real conversation

Pressure rehearsal

Not a journal. Not a lecture. A real practice rep.

Tough Talk gives you the friction most people avoid until it is too late: the tone, the provocation, the emotional pull, and the chance to answer better.

Built for privacy

Private by default, because these conversations already have enough risk.

All conversations stay on your device. No account required. No personal data collected. Just you and the AI.

On-device conversations

Your practice sessions stay with you instead of turning into a profile.

No account required

No signup wall between you and the practice you need.

Works in any language

Practice anytime, anywhere, in the language you already speak at home.
