StoryWorth and Remento are cool — but old-school. This is modern and digital: stories, people, and papers all in one place.

Product updates for families building their Storybook. No spam.
Family Membership · $79/year · six seats
Family stories shouldn't die in a group chat.
Private digital Storybooks, family documents, and your tree — invite-only. You plus five people you invite. No ads. No strangers.
What people regret most
The stories. The voice. The papers.
You only get one chance to keep them.
You'll wish you had their voice
People say it every day: I wish I'd recorded that story. Group chats scroll. Voice notes disappear. Photos stay. The way they told it is gone.
Wills and care notes shouldn't live in random emails
The important papers end up in drives, folders, and "I'll sort it later." When something happens, nobody knows where anything is.
Your family isn't a public feed
Step-siblings, chosen family, two households. Social apps turn them into content. You need a private place for the people who actually show up.
What families say
Not a gift book on a shelf — the place families actually open
Hearing her voice again on a random Tuesday — that's the whole point.
Jordan, 34
Six seats fit me, my sister, both moms, and the two kids. Finally simple.
Elena, 52
Ancestry mapped bloodlines. We needed a place for the family we actually live.
Chris, 41
The will and the care notes used to live in my email. Never again.
Priya, 58
Five days before a birthday is enough time to actually show up.
Sam, 29
We started one Storybook for grandma. Now the cousins fight over who asks next.
Ava, 36
$79 a year is less than another subscription we ignore. This one we open.

What Kinnect is for
Stories, people, papers — one private place
Invite-only. You plus five. No ads. The stuff you actually need when family is real life.
Storybooks
Ask the questions while you still can. Keep the answers in text or voice — so kids and grandkids can hear them later.
See StorybooksFamily Tree
Map who belongs the way your family actually looks — blood, blended, chosen — private, not a public research project.
See Family TreeVault
Keep wills, care notes, and the papers that matter where the right people can find them — not lost in email.
Journal
A private place to write or speak — with voice help. Yours first; share into Storybooks when you're ready.
Birthday cards
Digital birthday cards with five days' notice — time to make it personal, not a last-minute text.

Their stories. Their voice. Digital — for generations.
Like StoryWorth or Remento — but modern and digital. They just talk (or type). You decide who can open each chapter. No public feed. Included with Family Membership.
They just talk
Voice or text. Guided prompts do the heavy lifting — not a blank page that feels like homework.
You keep the recording
When they speak, you keep the sound of how they told it — the laugh, the pause — not only words on a page.
You choose who hears it
Invite-only. Share a chapter with the right people. Private by design — not a social post.
How Storybooks work
Four steps. Stories that actually get finished.
Step 1
Start a Storybook
Invite someone you love — or open one for yourself. Pick a theme or let guided questions lead.
Step 2
A prompt lands. They just speak.
Answer in voice or text. No blank journal. Questions that surface stories the family never wrote down.
Step 3
The chapter lives digitally
Finished chapters stay in a private Storybook — open anytime, not lost in a chat scroll.
Step 4
Family you invite can open it
Share with the people who should hear it. Same membership as Tree and Vault — one private home for six.
Honest answers
Is this Facebook for families?
No. No public feed. No ads. No strangers. Only the people you invite — up to five with you.
Is this just another gift book?
No. Storybooks are digital — text and voice — and they live with your Tree and Vault. Not a one-and-done hardcover that sits on a shelf.
Who is this really for?
Adult kids who feel the clock. Parents who want to leave something real. Caregivers holding the papers. Blended families who don't fit a straight pedigree.
Why not just use free apps?
Because free usually means your family is the product. Membership pays for a private place that isn't selling their stories to advertisers.
Built from personal loss.
After losing my grandfather to dementia and a close friend to cancer, I understood what disappears when we do not capture people while we still can. Not just photos. Their actual voice. The way they told a story. The things they believed in. Kinnect is the space I needed and could not find anywhere else.

Why membership? Because this is for real humans only.
No bots. No fake accounts. No algorithm deciding who matters to you. Membership is how we keep it that way — and how you get everything worth keeping.
