Venmo

Paying other parents, coaches, sitters

Who paid for the team snacks, sorted

Venmo receipts are scattered. The assistant reads the payment emails and keeps a running tally: you owe the carpool mom $24, the coach's request is still unpaid. The assistant reads Venmo email notifications. It can't send money and only tracks what's owed and paid.
