For the people you'd do anything for
If something happened to you tonight, would they know what to do tomorrow?
Kinsake lets you record everything your family would need to know in your own words. When they need answers, they just ask.
You know things nobody else knows. That's the problem.
Which bank account the mortgage pulls from. Who the good plumber is. Where the will is. What the alarm code is. The account your wife doesn't even know exists.
Right now, all of that lives in one place: your head. And if something happens to you, it disappears with you. Your family won't just be grieving. They'll be trying to figure out how to run a household they never fully managed - while the bills keep coming and the insurance company needs a call they don't know how to make.
of Americans have no will, no trust, no plan of any kind. The people they love will figure it out alone.

"We'd been married 13 years. I signed where I needed to sign and that was the end. I had no idea what bank we were financing through. There were IRAs, investment accounts, credit cards, tuition funds. I had no idea how much was in any of them - or who to call to find out."

Record what matters. In your words, your way.
No spreadsheets. No legal forms. Just answer simple questions the way you'd explain it to her if she asked.
We ask the right questions
Kinsake walks you through guided questions across the five areas that matter most: finances, home maintenance, vendors, legal documents, and personal notes. You answer in your own words - the way you'd actually say it.
You talk. We remember.
Type it out or just speak it. "The mortgage comes out of Chase checking on the 1st. Electric and gas auto-pay from the same account around the 15th." Done. No PDFs. No filing. Just your knowledge, stored and searchable.
Family ask. They get your answer.
When they need to know something - whether you're traveling, in the hospital, or gone - they type a question in plain English. Kinsake finds what you recorded and answers them clearly, using your words and your specifics. If you never recorded it, Kinsake says so. It never guesses.
The electric bill is set up on auto-pay - it pulls directly from the Chase checking account, usually around the 15th. You don't need to do anything for it to go through. If you ever need to check the bill amount, log into the Chase app - your email address is the username.

You already know you need this.
For the spouses who handles everything
You're the one who knows where the money is, who the good contractors are, and what happens if the sump pump fails at 2am. You've thought about what would happen if you weren't around. Kinsake is how you do something about it - in 15 minutes, not 15 hours.
For the adult child who's seen the chaos
You watched your mom struggle after your dad died. The frantic calls, the missing documents, the accounts nobody knew about. You swore you'd never let that happen to your family. Give this to your parents. Give it to yourself.

Start with the questions they'll actually need answered.
Finances
How do I pay the mortgage? What bills are on auto-pay? Where are the investment accounts?
Home & Maintenance
Where's the water shut-off? What size is the air filter? What's the alarm code?
Vendors & Contacts
Who do I call if the furnace breaks? Who's our plumber? Who are the neighbors I can ask for help?
Legal & Documents
Where is the will? Who's our estate attorney? Where are the life insurance policies?
Personal Notes
What do you want the kids to know? What are your wishes? Is there anything we never talked about?
Every other option is a filing cabinet. This is a conversation.

Everything you want to know
What exactly is Kinsake?
Kinsake is an app that lets you record household knowledge - finances, accounts, home maintenance, vendors, legal info, personal notes - in your own words. Your spouse or family member can then ask questions in plain English and get your answers back, clearly and specifically. Think of it as the conversation you always meant to have, stored and ready for when it matters.
When does it launch?
We're building right now and expect to launch in 2026. Join the waitlist and you'll be the first to know - plus you'll get early access before the general public.
Is my information secure?
Security is the foundation, not a feature. All data is encrypted in transit and at rest. We never store actual passwords - we prompt you to store hints and references instead. Your recipient gets read-only access and you can revoke it at any time.
Does the AI ever make things up?
No. This is the single most important design decision in the product. Kinsake only surfaces what you actually recorded. If you didn't write it down, it says so clearly. It never guesses, never invents, never fills in gaps. A wrong answer in a crisis is worse than no answer.
Is this a replacement for a will or estate plan?
No. Your will says who gets what. Kinsake tells her how to actually run the household - who to call, where things are, how things work - in your voice, not legalese. It's the layer that lives on top of your legal documents.
How much will it cost?
We'll offer a free tier with room for the most essential entries. Paid plans will start at $99/year. Waitlist members will get a launch discount.
Your family won't have to figure it out alone.
Fifteen minutes of your time now could save them months of confusion, panic, and heartbreak later. Kinsake is almost ready. Get on the list.
No credit card. No commitment. Just an email so we can tell you when it's ready.
