Built by a mom, for moms.
Leavigation started with one frustrating experience, and a lot of wasted hours.
Audrey
Founder, Leavigation · San Francisco, CA
Mom, tech professional, and the person who spent way too many hours trying to figure out her own maternity leave so you don't have to.
The problem I couldn't solve
When I was planning my own maternity leave, I had no idea what I was doing. I went back and forth with HR for weeks trying to figure out how FMLA, SDI, PFL, and my employer leave all worked together. Nobody could give me a clear answer. And I work in tech, I'm used to quickly solving problems. But this was genuinely confusing and I wasted hours and hours researching and learning everything I could about leave. And if it was confusing for me and many of my tech friends, then I knew it would be confusing for every other mom out there, too.
So I built the tool I wished existed
Leavigation takes the complexity of parental leave, the overlapping federal laws, state programs, employer policies, and municipal ordinances, and turns it into a clear, personalized, week-by-week plan. No law degree required. No hours on hold with EDD. Just answers.
Where we are today
Leavigation launched in April 2026 in California and expanded to all 50 states and DC in May 2026. The tool covers FMLA, employer parental leave, and short-term disability for every state, and we are building the various state-specific paid leave programs into the tool for the 14 states and DC that have them. We are actively building, listening to users, and improving every week. This is a product built in spare time, driven entirely by feedback from real moms.
