Thinking of building this (and also for sms). Feel free to reach out if anyone is interested.

I think I can do something like $25 or $50 a year for an email address that's basically a distribution group w/ some smart routing for replies and something similar for sms.

Use cases as varied as shared accounts, everyone getting grocery delivery notifications, etc.

from my own experience. There are some amazingly interesting use cases for organising family life. We have shared drop offs/pick ups with another family which is a constant flow of WhatsApp messages.

I too have thought of a shared comms channel for all "incoming family business" SMS & Email would be a good start, but WhatsApp is a non-negligible channel as well.

And dont get any parent started on the 35 different School/Club apps etc
