Honestly? No co-parenting app is — there's no court agency that certifies them, so any app claiming an official “court seal” is stretching the truth. What actually decides a custody case is whether your records will be accepted as evidence and relied on by professionals. That's the bar CoreParent is built to clear.
From everyday logging to the courtroom
Three steps take a record from the moment you note it to a document the other side can verify for themselves.
1. You document as you go
Messages, expenses, incidents, and your parenting-time calendar are captured with server-recorded dates and times — an organized history instead of a shoebox of screenshots reconstructed the night before a hearing.
2. You export a certified court document
When you need something for court, CoreParent generates a fixed PDF and stamps it with a unique cryptographic fingerprint, a digital signature, and a short verification code printed right on the certificate page.
3. Anyone can verify it
A judge or opposing counsel enters the code at our public verifier and drops in the PDF. The file is checked right in their browser — it never leaves their device — and confirmed as an unaltered CoreParent export. No subpoena, no account required.
Why the records are trustworthy
Not a badge you have to take on faith — mechanisms anyone can check.
Certified & self-authenticating
Each export carries a SHA-256 fingerprint and a digital signature. Change a single pixel and verification fails — so the copy in the court file is provably the copy CoreParent produced.
A business-records affidavit, included
Every certified export can be paired with a signable Certification of Business Records referencing the federal rules used to admit records as evidence (FRE 902(11) & 902(13); 28 U.S.C. § 1746).
Communication you can't quietly rewrite
Your co-parent message thread is append-only — messages can't be edited or deleted — with server-recorded send, delivery, and read times.
Verifiable by the other side, offline
Anyone can confirm authenticity independently at CoreParent's public verifier. Trust doesn't depend on taking your word for it — or ours.
What you can hand your attorney
Each of these exports as a clean, court-formatted document — the certified ones carry the fingerprint and verification code.
What certification does — and doesn't — mean
Certification proves an exported document is an unaltered CoreParent record, generated at a specific moment, faithfully reflecting what the system held at that time.
It does not attest to the truth of anything you or your co-parent typed — a verified record is authentic, not automatically correct.
Whether any specific record is admissible is always the court's decision, and can vary by state and by case.
CoreParent is a documentation tool, not a law firm. Nothing here is legal advice — have a licensed family-law attorney in your state review anything before you file it.
Start building a record you can stand behind
Free to start. When the day comes that you need it, your documentation is already organized, certified, and ready.
CoreParent provides documentation tools, not legal advice, and does not create an attorney-client relationship. Admissibility of any record is determined by the court.
