About me

Hi, I'm Nora. I'm a business executive and a full-time mom with ADHD. I use AI every day to make my life easier, because none of us need one more thing.

I started One Less Thing because I wanted a space to try new things in AI, share what I learn so you can skip the time and effort, and see what other moms are doing in real time. What I'm testing right now goes in the Tried by Nora feed.

The whole point is more time to be present for the best parts of parenting.

A lot of this site is gathered and organized with AI, and I review it before it goes up. This isn't my full-time job. My ADHD is my own experience, not medical advice.

What makes the list

In

  • Takes admin, logistics, planning or mental load off mom
  • Works in the tool it's listed under, on the free or most common plan
  • Tried by me, or built on the tool's own help docs and re-checked
  • You stay in charge: AI drafts, you decide, nothing sends or buys without your OK
  • Shares the least it can: no kids' faces, health records or account numbers
  • Any paid placement is clearly labeled Sponsored

Never in

  • AI as a companion, babysitter or entertainer for kids
  • AI doing kids' homework or their learning for them
  • AI standing in for parenting: comfort, discipline, big talks
  • Medical, mental-health or development diagnosis or treatment
  • Sharing kids' private information
  • Anything unsafe or that acts without your approval

The fine print

Everything here is general information, shared as-is. It isn’t medical, legal, financial or mental-health advice.

AI tools make mistakes, and this site is gathered and organized with the help of AI and automation, so it can contain errors or go out of date. Check anything important yourself.

You choose what you share with any AI tool. One Less Thing isn’t responsible for how you use AI, what you share with it, or how those companies collect, store, use or share your data.

We aren’t liable for any loss or harm from using this site or acting on it. The full Terms of use and Privacy pages have the details.
