Our story

We built it because we needed it.

Two sisters from Houston, both moms, with zero tech background. What we had was marketing and design, and years of being the default parent.

Kayla Kugler, founder and CEO of Momeaze

A note from the founder

Momeaze didn’t start as a tech idea. It started as a very real problem I had as a mom.

I wanted to remember things, the first funny phrases and the moments buried in text threads and photos I could never find again. And at the same time I was drowning in the other half of it: pregnancy, postpartum, work, sleep tracking, feeding logs, calendars, sports schedules, reminders, the entire running order of a household.

Then I gave birth to my fourth son, and it stopped being something I could push through.

Moms don’t need more trackers. We need support that thinks ahead, remembers for us, and helps without being asked.

This app exists because I needed it. My sisters needed it. My friends needed it. Millions of moms need it.

We didn’t build Momeaze to make mothers more efficient. Efficiency was never the problem. The overwhelm is.

The women who live this every day.

Eleven mothers advise Momeaze. They aren’t a panel of experts on motherhood. They are eleven women carrying it right now, in eleven different situations, and they tell us when something we built doesn’t hold up in a real week.

We didn’t ask them once and send a thank-you note. They use Momeaze in their own weeks and tell us when something we built doesn’t hold up on an ordinary Tuesday.

How we got here.

December 2024

The idea starts

Kayla wanted somewhere to keep the small things, the first funny phrases and the moments buried in text threads, and there wasn’t one.

February 2025

The real problem shows up

Kayla’s fourth son was born, and it stopped being something she could push through. The problem was never that the days needed managing better.

Summer 2025

Other moms say the same thing

We took it to moms and advisors, and heard the same thing back from almost every one of them.

September 2025

Momeaze is founded

With one mission: build intelligent support designed specifically for mothers.

November 2025

Investment secured

Dobbs AI Ventures joined as an investment partner, which meant we could build it properly as one connected system rather than in pieces.

January 2026

Development begins

Planning, reminders and memory built to work together from the start.

Spring 2026

Beta with real moms

3,500 moms used it in their actual lives and told us what was wrong with it.

September 2026

Momeaze launches

On the App Store and Google Play, on the same day.
