is a scheduling app that helps to coordinate across multiple family devices. You can keep a family calendar with reminders and agenda emails, access a daily agenda, manage a shared to-do list, and even share a grocery list. Cozi integrates with Alexa— so, just train your teen to say, “Alexa, add milk to my grocery list” when he drinks the last of it, and it’s added to the app’s list for whomever takes the next trip to the store.

Funded by Gray’s success on “Shark Tank,” the service started out as a customized scholarship search that will connect students with growing library of library of 20,000+ scholarship opportunities. But now Scholly also has a math system— similar to Photomath— that walks you through the process of how to solve a program. AND it touts an editor— similar to Grammarly— that promises to help students improve their writing.
