Built by an Australian family who has lived it

We built the calm home we needed ourselves.

Understanding Zoe started with one neurodivergent family, and the load they carried. Now it holds that load for thousands.

Understanding Zoe is an Australian, neuroaffirming app for neurodivergent life, at every age and stage. We were built by parents of neurodivergent children. Our 2025 study of 1,091 Australian families was conducted with Sunday Insights and PureSpectrum. We are an Australian company, and your data is stored in Australia.

What we believe

Five values shape every decision we make, every feature we ship, and every conversation Pip, your AI coach, has with you and your family.

Neuroaffirming by design

We celebrate neurodivergent identity. Strengths first, never deficits.

Practical and personalised

Real strategies you can use today, shaped around each person.

Evidence-led

Backed by clinicians, researchers and lived experience.

Connected care

Your family and support team can share the same information.

Private by design

Your data is stored in Australia and stays yours.

Why we exist

Every neurodivergent child, and every neurodivergent adult, deserves support built around who they are. That is the home we are building.
