For sober living
A sober living app for recovery residences and house managers
Give every resident a private recovery app with your house name, rules, meeting times and contacts in it. House managers send broadcasts from the staff portal, and residents can keep their plan for 30 to 365 days after they move out.
Why it matters
More than 7,150 certified recovery residences, and only about 1 in 5 people who needed substance use treatment in 2024 received it.

What you get
Made for operators, house managers and peer staff
House resources in one place
House rules, meeting schedules, the main phone line, links and PDFs, inside the app residents already open every day.
Broadcasts to the whole house
Send up to 5 broadcasts a day to the whole house or a group, written or video, now or scheduled. Results show as totals, in bands.
“Can we talk?” alerts
When a resident taps “Can we talk?”, your house leads see it on the Care team tab and your named contact gets a short email.
Support after move-out
Keep a resident's plan going 30 to 365 days after they leave, so the routine they built in the house goes with them.
Admin for house managers
Hand out a one-time code at intake, pick the plan, and get one invoice a month. Residents never enter payment details.
Any substance, any pathway
Alcohol, drugs or anything else. A meeting finder, a day count, milestones and twelve AI mentors any hour.

FAQ
Questions from sober living operators
Is Free and Sober sober house management software?
It's the resident-facing side: a private recovery app with your house's name, resources and broadcasts, plus a staff portal for codes, seats and plans. Keep using your own house management system; the optional Partner API can connect it.
Can house managers message residents?
Yes. Leads and counselors can send one-way broadcasts, and residents can tap “Can we talk?” to ask for a conversation. We switch these on for your program.
What do operators see?
Monthly totals for your seats, and a resident's first name and last initial only if they sign the privacy disclosure in the app. Their journals, Time Capsules and mentor conversations stay in their own account.
How much does it cost?
Member seats are $12.99, $19.99 or $29.99 a month by plan, with a $99 monthly minimum. Setup: $2,500 one-time. The Partner API (Connect $249/mo, Connect+ $750/mo) and Meetings ($29 per host a month) are optional add-ons. Setup and Partner API fees waived for agreements signed before 1/1/27.
Is Free and Sober treatment?
No. Free and Sober™ is a wellness app and a non-clinical resource, not medical care or treatment. It points members back to their counselors, meetings and people, and covers alcohol, drugs and any other substance.
