Instagram never deserved your daughter's first steps.
Kinfolktree turns your family into a painterly, living portrait — every relative an ornament, every story a memory in the Vault, every conversation private and encrypted with a key unique to your family. Yours forever, never theirs.
Kinfolktree is a private family app for the people you actually love. No feed, no algorithm, no strangers. Just the tree, the vault, and the chat — all rooted in privacy.
A painterly portrait that grows as your family grows. Tap any ornament to meet a relative — their photo, their story, their place in the lineage. New members sprout in with a soft glow.
The family's permanent archive. Voice notes, photos, recipes, oral histories, the stories grandparents won't be here forever to tell. Pin what matters. Edit in place. Keep it for decades.
Family chat that doesn't bleed into the rest of the world. Group rooms, one-to-one DMs straight from the tree, and a Mentor Registry to connect the elders to the saplings asking for guidance.
Elders. The wisdom layer.
Mid-life. Active builders.
Young adults. Career-active.
The newest growth.
Every family has a hundred stories that die with the person who told them. The Vault is where they live now — voice memos, photos, recipes, oral histories, blessings, advice for the kids who aren't born yet.
Pin the ones that matter. Edit them as memory sharpens. The Vault is a shared archive that belongs to your family, not a platform.
Tap any ornament. Their hub opens. Their photo, their story, their memories in the Vault — and a private 1:1 thread, just the two of you. Real time. Encrypted, and hidden from the rest of the family.
Group rooms for the whole family, threads for the cousins, DMs for the call you've been meaning to have with your grandfather.
The elders opt-in to share what they know — careers, crafts, languages, hard-won life lessons. The saplings can browse the registry, send a request, and start a conversation. Mentorship inside the family, on the family's terms.
No DMs to strangers. No exposure to the open internet. Just kin.
Every story, photo, and message is encrypted with a key unique to your family and locked to your family by the database itself. Your family's history belongs to your family — not advertisers, not anyone else. How it works.
Start free. Upgrade when you're ready to give your grandchildren something they can still open in 2080.
Need more room? Plans stack. When another family member adds their own Heritage or Forever, their seats and vault space join the family pool — Heritage brings 5 seats and 25 GB, Forever brings 8 seats and 25 GB. What each person adds stays with the family.
Invited members ride free on the buyer's plan — no separate payment. Sapling families upgrade to Heritage to unlock add-on seats, unless invited into a paid family with seats to spare.
Available for iPhone and iPad. Invite your kin with a single KIN code — seat counts scale with your tier.
