KINDREDWhat is KINDRED?

Founding families · limited to 100

Grandma sends a challenge. Your kid sends one back.

Video calls die on a four-year-old’s attention span. KINDRED replaces them with a daily 20-second loop: a grandparent asks, the kid answers on their own clock, a star comes back. Reserve a founding-family spot before we open.

Why the FaceTime call keeps failing

It isn’t the distance. It’s attention. A call is scheduled for the adults, lasts as long as a four-year-old’s patience, and ends with “say hi to Grandma” while the kid is already gone.

A Sunday video call

  1. 0:00Parents set it up. Kid is mid-Lego.
  2. 0:15“Say hi to Grandma.” A wave, from the side.
  3. 0:40Kid drifts out of frame. Parents narrate.
  4. 4:00Grandma is talking to the ceiling. Everyone hangs up a little sad.

A KINDRED day

  1. 8:00Delhi. Dadi records a 20-second ask: “Show me your best jump.”
  2. 15:30Toronto. He opens it because it’s for him. Jumps. Taps done.
  3. 21:00Delhi. A star lands, and tomorrow’s ask.
  4. dailyTwenty seconds each, on each person’s own clock.

Short. Daily. The kid’s idea to answer. That’s what a four-year-old can do.

Where do the grandparents live?

How a KINDRED week goes

1

They ask

A grandparent records a 20-second challenge from a prompt we suggest or one of their own. “Read me this word.” “Show me your loudest roar.”

Kids answer

Whenever it suits your day. Kid mode is one button: watch, then record. Nothing else on the screen.

A star lands

The grandparent reacts with a star and the next ask. That loop is the whole product. Private to your family, always.
