Schedules live everywhere
One email from school. One PDF from the league. One text from the coach. None of them talk to each other.
Parendipity connects to your email, sports apps, and school portals — then keeps your family calendar updated automatically. Your Skylight just shows what's already there.

What is Parendipity?
"What is Parendipity and how does it work with Skylight?"
Parendipity is an AI-powered scheduling layer for families. It connects to the places your family's schedules actually live — school emails, sports apps, group chats, and PDFs — extracts events automatically, and syncs them to Google Calendar. Because Skylight pulls from Google Calendar, your Skylight display stays current without you touching it. Parendipity handles the input. Skylight handles the display.
The problem
Skylight does exactly what it promises — it shows your family calendar on a beautiful screen. The problem is everything that has to happen before that.
One email from school. One PDF from the league. One text from the coach. None of them talk to each other.
Every game, practice, pickup, and school event has to be typed in by hand. Then re-typed when it changes.
A reschedule buried in a group text. A new pickup time in an email. Skylight shows what you entered, not what actually changed.
Even with Skylight, pickup and dropoff decisions happen in texts. No one knows who is doing what until someone asks.
The shift
“The problem isn't Skylight. The problem happens before the calendar.”
Skylight works. Google Calendar works. The gap is the step before both of them.
Right now, you are the intelligence layer. You read the emails, extract the dates, resolve the conflicts, and type everything in. That is the problem Parendipity solves.
When the input layer is automated, everything downstream — including your Skylight — takes care of itself.
How it works
Parendipity runs quietly in the background. You don't change how you use Skylight. You just stop feeding it by hand.
Link your email, sports apps, and school portals. Takes about two minutes. Parendipity reads from them continuously.
Parendipity identifies dates, times, locations, and changes from every source. No copy-pasting. No manual review.
Events are created, updated, and removed as schedules change. Your calendar stays accurate without you opening it.
Because Skylight syncs from Google Calendar, everything appears there automatically. Your display is always current.

Why it matters
The calendar is the symptom. The real cost is the mental overhead of tracking everything yourself — constantly.
30+
The average family with two kids in activities spends over 30 minutes a week just maintaining their calendar. Parendipity gets that to zero.
0
Parendipity watches every source continuously. When a game gets rescheduled or a pickup time changes, your calendar updates before you even know about it.

No more “did you see the email?” No more checking TeamSnap separately from Skylight. One place. Always current. Everyone on the same page.
Parendipity + Skylight
Skylight is not the problem. It is a genuinely useful display that your whole family can see. The problem is everything that has to happen before Skylight can show anything useful.
Parendipity is the layer that makes Skylight actually work the way you imagined it would when you bought it. You keep Skylight exactly where it is. You just stop feeding it manually.

Common questions
Yes. Parendipity syncs your family's schedule to Google Calendar. Skylight connects to Google Calendar and displays whatever is there. So when Parendipity updates Google Calendar, Skylight updates automatically. No extra setup required.
No. Skylight stays exactly where it is. Parendipity works upstream of Skylight — it just takes over the job of keeping Google Calendar current so you don't have to.
Parendipity connects to Google Calendar via the standard Google Calendar API. It creates and updates events directly. You connect your Google account once during setup, and Parendipity handles everything after that.
It is automatic. Parendipity extracts and syncs events without requiring your approval for every item. For high-confidence events, it just adds them. For anything ambiguous, it flags it for a quick one-tap review. Most of the time, you won't see anything at all.
Parendipity monitors your connected sources continuously. When a schedule change comes through — a new email, an updated game time, a cancelled practice — it detects the change and updates Google Calendar automatically. Your Skylight reflects the update the next time it refreshes.
Parendipity connects to email (Gmail and Outlook), sports apps like TeamSnap and SportsEngine, school portals, and can process PDFs and documents forwarded directly to it. More integrations are being added in beta based on what families actually use.
No. Parendipity does not replace Skylight or any calendar. It is the layer that sits before your calendar — ingesting, extracting, and organizing your family's schedules so that tools like Skylight actually have accurate information to display.
