About Kin
Our mission
Most family apps set out to make a household more productive. We think the problem is a different one: in most homes a single person is quietly holding the whole schedule in their head, and what that costs is attention, not hours. Kin exists to get that load out of one head and into a place the whole family can see — so there is less coordinating, and more actually being there.
How we work
No ads, ever
Your family's attention and data are not for sale. Kin will be sustained by the families who find it genuinely useful, or not at all — there is no ad business here and no plans to start one.
Per-family, not per-seat
When we do introduce a paid plan it will scale with families, not against them. Add a nanny, a grandparent, or a teenager — the price will stay the same.
Privacy first
We collect only what's needed to make the app work. Ask us and we'll export or delete your family's data — email [email protected] and we'll action it within 30 days. A self-serve screen in the app is on the way; the right doesn't wait for the button.
Built to last
No venture capital, no growth-at-all-costs. Kin is in beta and free while we work out what it should cost, and when we do charge it will be families paying for it — which is the only arrangement that keeps it built for families.
