Kinu

Private personal CRM for the people you care about.

What Kinu does

He mentioned the interview was Thursday. You thought about it Saturday, decided it was too late to ask, and said nothing.

Kinu is where that goes before it slips.

People search for a personal CRM and find sales software. This is the other thing: a private place for what you learn about the people you love.

Sara's dad is out of the hospital. Ben's partner is Priya. Tom hates being called Thomas. When it has been a while, Kinu brings it back, and you walk into the call already knowing.

You could keep this in your notes app. A note never tells you it has been a while, and it cannot hold someone gently while they are having a hard year. Pause a person and nothing about them comes up until you change it back.

  • Free for 10 people, iOS and Android

  • Written to a database on your phone. Works on a plane

  • Export everything to a JSON file from settings, on the free tier

  • Kinu Plus adds unlimited people, sync across devices, and web and desktop access: $6.99 a month or $69.99 a year

  • Or $149.99 once, and never again

No feeds. No streaks. Nothing to keep up with.

I really like that there's an app that helps me to remember birthdays (and my friends' children's birthdays). And it's private!

Thank you. Friends' children's birthdays is exactly the case I hoped someone would find. Private was the starting point rather than something added later, so it is good to hear that came through.

How does Kinu keep personal relationship data private while still making it easy to remember the little things about people?

Urh Meza's avatar

A friend mentions an interview on Thursday. You save it in about five seconds. That is the only way anything gets into Kinu.

Kinu can help you add people from your contacts, and that is where it stops. No calendar, no reading your messages, nothing pulled in behind you. There is not much to protect when the app never collects it.

What you do save stays on your device and works offline. Kinu Plus adds encrypted sync, so the server holds ciphertext rather than your friends' names. Nothing you write about people is used for ads or analytics, and there is no feed for any of it to end up in.

The remembering is timing, not automation. Kinu brings that interview back on Wednesday night, while you can still send the message.
