How Kinnect works

Buy. Invite five people. Start a Storybook.

Most families do not plan to lose their stories. It just happens, slowly, until one day the voice is gone and the details are blurry. Kinnect is how you stop that from happening. Here is how it works.

Buy → invite → first Storybook

Three steps. One private family home.

1. Start membership

Create your account, then Family Membership — $79/year for six seats. No free-tier product.

2. Invite your people

Up to five people you choose. Invite-only. No strangers, no public feed.

3. Open a Storybook

Ask someone to answer — or start your own. Guided chapters. Voice or text. Keep it for generations.

Buy, invite five, start a Storybook. Clear path — no tutorial maze.

Minutes to start, not a months-long setup project.

I knew what I was buying: six seats and a private place for stories.

Account first meant membership was tied to a real family home.

Simple steps. We finished onboarding the same evening.

Once the five people were in, Storybooks and Tree just made sense.

The full path

Buy. Invite five. Start a Storybook.

No waitlist theater. No orphan checkout. Account first — then membership — then your family home.

One price

$79/year. Six seats. Everything included: Storybooks, Tree, Vault, Nudge, birthdays.

Invite-only

You choose who gets in. Private by design — not a public social graph.

Digital first

Stories in voice or text that stay open — not only a hardcover that sits on a shelf.

Step 1

Create your Kinnect account

Signup first so membership is tied to a real family — not a naked payment link.

Step 2

Activate Family Membership

$79/year. Cancel anytime. No free-tier product merchandising.

Step 3

Invite up to five people

Six seats total. The people who actually show up — blended, chosen, multi-gen.

Step 4

Start a Storybook (or map your Tree)

Ask someone to answer, or write your own. Guided. Private. Built to last generations.

Start Family Membership

Account first → membership → family home

Membership first — then your family actually uses it.

Step 1. Create your account.

Buy Family Membership for $79/year. You get a seat for yourself and five people you invite — six in total. Then log in with the email you used at checkout.

Step 2. Create a Kin Group.

Name it. Choose who belongs in it. Invite them directly. There are no public links and no way to find your group from outside. Only the people you name can join.

Step 3. Open a Storybook and capture a voice.

Within 24 hours your group gets its first daily question. Everyone answers in their own time, in their own words, however they feel comfortable. Text, voice, or short video.

Step 4. Responses build into a shared archive.

Every answer, photo, voice note, and update is stored chronologically. Nothing gets buried by an algorithm. You can scroll back months or years and find exactly what you are looking for.

Step 5. You never miss a birthday again.

Kinnect notifies you five days before a birthday. You write your message when you have time. It arrives on the day.

Step 6. Nudge keeps things going.

Nudge sends you a personal reminder to check in on a specific relationship when the timing feels right. Not every day. Just when it matters.

Frequently asked questions

Q: How long does it take to set up?

A: Most people create their first Kin Group and send their first invitation within five minutes of signing up.

Q: What formats can I share in?

A: Text, voice notes, photos, and short video. You choose the format that feels right for each moment.

Q: Can my group see everything I post?

A: Yes, within your group. Nothing is visible outside of it. You can also keep individual Echo responses private to yourself.

Q: What if my family is not tech-savvy?

A: Kinnect works on the web and in the iOS app. After you buy, log in with your checkout email — on the phone for daily use, or in the browser when that's easier.

Q: What does Kinnect cost?

A: Family Membership is $79/year. You get six seats total — yourself plus five people you invite. Private, ad-free, cancel anytime.

Q: How is Kinnect different from a shared Google Drive or iCloud?

A: Storage tools save files. Kinnect creates a shared living record with daily prompts, check-ins, and a chronological timeline. It is built for relationship and memory, not file management.
