Start wherever is easiest

Write your own list, use one of ours, or show us what needs sorting.

However you start, you can edit the list before anyone makes their choices.

  • Write your own list

    Type or paste in the jobs, responsibilities or belongings you need to divide.

  • Start with one of ours

    Pick a ready-made list, then add, remove or rename anything you like.

    Use photos or video

    Show us a room and review the suggested items before they go into your list.

When there is a lot to sort out

Take the heat out of deciding who does or gets what.

These conversations can get emotional, tense or simply hard to start. Fairly Sorted lets everyone make their choices privately, then gives you one practical split to review together.

Home, family and childcare

Divide chores, household admin, caring responsibilities and the jobs around a new baby.

How it works

Three steps. No need to solve it all in one conversation.

  1. 1. Make the list

    Write your own or pick one of ours. Add, remove and rename things until it fits.

  2. 2. Everyone chooses

    Each person says what they do and do not want, privately and in their own time.

  3. 3. Finish the split together

    Run another quick round for anything left, then review the result and tweak it together.

“Thank you! I can honestly say that you've helped us avoid a divorce.”

Simple, private and yours

We help you sort the list. You stay in charge.

Everyone chooses privately first, then reviews the result together. We do not sell your personal data.

  • Everyone gets an independent say

    People work through the same list in their own time before the group reviews the split.

  • Nothing is final until you agree

    Move a task, share a responsibility or update the list whenever real life changes.

  • Your data is not the product

    We do not sell your personal data. You can export your information or ask us to delete your account.

Questions, answered plainly

Before you start.

Does everyone need to pay?
No. Only the person starting the shared list may pay for optional photo tools. Everyone invited to take part joins free.
Can I just use a list?
Yes. Write your own list or choose a ready-made one for free. Photos are an optional shortcut when there is a room full of things to capture.
Does Fairly Sorted decide what is fair?
No. Grounded in academic fair-division research, Fairly Sorted uses two methods depending on the case. Direct agreement means that if only one person wants something, it goes to them. Double round-robin handles things that several people want, or nobody does, using everyone’s preferences and what each person already has to suggest a balanced split. You can review and change every suggestion before agreeing.
