Accountable2You is a subscription-based transparency tool that monitors device activity and shares it with accountability partners you choose, rather than blocking websites.^1 It is built for Christians who want to honor God in unseen moments, in families, churches, and schools.^2^4
A Monitoring app runs quietly in the background on Windows, Mac, Android, iOS, Chromebook, and Linux, while a separate Reports app lets partners review activity and receive alerts.^1 Reports cover websites, apps, search terms, and incognito browsing, and flag uninstall and tampering attempts, custom trigger words, and screen time, with text and call monitoring on Android.^5 Reports avoid screenshots and unnecessary detail, so partners are not exposed to the content they are helping someone avoid.^1 Personal and Family plans are sold by subscription with a 10-day free trial, and full pricing is listed on the pricing page.^6 Churches can instead buy a ministry credit plan that funds Personal and Family accounts; members still choose their own partners, and reports go to those partners, not to the ministry administrator.^3 Schools get the same pattern, with no administrator access to monitoring data.^4
Ben Lawrence built the first version in 2006 after experiencing the dangers of being alone with a device; he and his wife Alissa later opened it to others.^7 Ben, who describes himself first as a follower of Jesus, says in a profile from The Master's University: "Accountability software makes transparency very easy."^8 Both Lawrences stress that software cannot change a heart; only the Holy Spirit can. Tools can still support intentional, gospel-centered accountability.^2 They also publish a free online book, Defending Purity in a Pornographic Age, built around fleeing sin, coming to Christ, and sharing with others.^9
One user, writing in October 2026 about the day his partner confronted him, put it this way:
"The software didn't have to stop me from making a poor decision. Instead, it helped create an environment where I knew someone I trusted could ask me about that decision."^10
