Maddy: ADHD & Autism Support

Maddy helps daily life feel like living for AuDHD, ADHD, and anyone who needs an executive-function boost. Built by an AuDHDer and her ADHD dad, for the days willpower alone can't carry you.

The space between your incredible capabilities and where you feel stuck on the daily is exactly what Maddy was built for. You may be able to travel the globe, play the piano, game like a pro, or cook like a chef. But brushing your teeth, getting outside, or getting dressed and making lunch? Some days those are super hard.

That gap is not laziness, lack of motivation, or moral failure. It is actually documented executive function variability: your brain runs on context, not on willpower. Maddy is a phone-shaped companion bringing the context.

What you get: • A morning check-in that meets you where you are: moving fast, somewhere in the middle, moving slow today, or "I can't right now." Maddy shows you only what your nervous system can handle today. • Grouped routines that read as one task, not a list of eight. The list of eight is on the back end, scaffolded so the steps land without overwhelming the executive function loop. • Real rewards, not make believe. Concrete reinforcement timed to land in the dopamine window, not three days later in a "weekly summary." • Care that's more than a checklist: your people, plus research-backed regulation tools like sound, breathing, grounding, and a few good laughs. • A no-failure-state design built around how shame loops actually work. The streak does not break. The list strips down on hard days. The relationship between you and the routine survives the morning you cannot do it.

For the parent, partner, or sibling who helps: The caregiver side is opt-in, and it's where your support actually shows up. You fund the real rewards; Maddy times them to land when they matter. You see what the person in your life chooses to share, and they feel your encouragement come back. And it's built to need you less over time, not more, with a heads-up from us when that starts to happen. You are not surveillance. You are the people who love them, and Maddy is built to honor that.

For occupational therapists, ND-affirming therapists, and other practitioners: Maddy is a between-session scaffold, not an intervention instrument. The design draws on peer-reviewed research on interoception, executive function, contingency management, shame-loop avoidance, and polyvagal-informed state-adaptive design. The mechanisms underlying Maddy's design are documented in the literature to help executive-function-impaired populations broadly. Full research foundation at mymaddy.app/research.

About the name: Maddy was built by a dad for his AuDHD daughter, who happens to also be named Maddy. She is the named co-designer. She works on daily-living skills herself, and she shaped the app for the day she least felt like using it. The app carries her name with her consent. The product is for everyone who needs what she needed: a quiet, warm, evidence-grounded scaffold for the parts of the day that don't have built-in structure.

Designed for AuDHD and ADHD. Helpful for anyone needing daily living scaffolding. Built by Reck the Fort LLC.
