Just Chicken In
Just Chicken In is a daily safety check in system for individuals, families, and organizations supporting vulnerable people.
A daily check in that protects privacy and supports real life care
Minimal data by designHow it works
- You pick a daily check in time.
- You check in with a quick tap.
- If you miss it, there is a built in grace period.
- After that, your chosen contacts are notified by phone, email, or both.
- If you made a care packet, the alert includes a secure link to it.
Privacy and safety features
- We do not store names or identifying personal information.
- We collect the minimum information required for alerts to work.
- We do not track behavior, build profiles, or sell data.
- No AI is used anywhere in the app or website.
- High Privacy Mode uses a de identified ID and short lived packet links.
Care packets help no one get left behind
- Pet care instructions and routines
- Dependents and minors care information
- Home access notes and practical next steps
- Anything you want a trusted helper to know
Built for access and community support
- Sliding scale pricing with a goal of supporting as many free accounts as possible.
- Free accounts stay anonymous because no card information is collected.
- Organizations can be a check in contact for members without reliable local contacts.
See the full story
Just Chicken In was created around a simple, familiar idea: just checking in. It is the kind of message a friend sends, or a parent says, when they drop in and want you to know you matter.
This app is for people who may not have someone nearby to check on them every day, and for families who want a reliable way to look out for loved ones from a distance.
Privacy is not an add on here. It is the foundation. We do not store names or identifying personal details. For users who need extra protection, High Privacy Mode sends alerts using a de identified ID.
Just Chicken In is not about monitoring. It is about care. It is about making sure pets are fed, dependents are safe, and people are supported when they cannot return home.
