System smart notifications
12 built-in rules that watch your patterns and fire at the right moment — quietly, with daily caps and quiet hours (10pm–8am). Each one can be toggled on or off per person.
🛒
Shopping day reminder
Fires on your usual shopping day based on your purchase patterns. Lists items due for restock.
🍽️
Date night nudge
"You haven't been out in 3 weeks — want to plan something?" Fires if your date night frequency drops.
💝
Anniversary alert
Reminds both of you 1 week and 1 day before your anniversary, with date night suggestions.
🎂
Birthday reminder
Reminds you before saved birthdays so you never forget a family member.
💸
Bill due alert
Learns your recurring bills (rent, utilities, subscriptions) and warns you 3 days before each one.
📊
Budget alert
Pings you when weekly spending is unusually high compared to your typical pattern.
🧹

Tracks when you last had the cleaner, plumber, etc. and reminds you when the interval passes.
