# About Us

Baby Stats was built in 2016 for this little stat tracker below. After investigating many other baby trackers out there we decided that they were too cumbersome (too many clicks), and didn't believe you should need to pay for one. With Alexa being new and with an SDK, Baby Stats was created for our personal use. As time went on, more features were added and the product has grown based on requests from other parents. Let us know if you need anything and we'll see what we can do (<support@babystats.org>).

Baby Stats became the first baby tracker on Alexa, Google Assistant,  Cortana, Bixby, and the first to utilize IFTTT and a REST API to let you integrate with any smart device you'd like.

Over time, families grow\.... Our family grew, and so Baby Stats grew. We added multiple baby features with the addition of the second child. Each family is different, and if we can't build it maybe someone can who has utilized our REST API.

Here's us now. As our family grows, we hope yours can grow too, and we hope we can help you with Baby Stats.
