Anyone got a stepladder I could borrow this weekend? Tackling the gutters before the rain comes in.

What makes it Kinli

A place to come together - to ask, share, and sell.

Not a feed built to hold your attention - a new kind of social, grounded in real people you trust.

Circles, by referral

Introduced by someone who already knows you.

A circle is a place - your street, your town - or an interest you share. You arrive through a personal referral from someone who already knows you, and the circle’s host welcomes you in. No cold directory, no open door - that’s what keeps the marketplace honest and the replies kind.

Start a circle

Every circle is its own world.

A place, a school gate, a yoga class, a hobby - busy or calm, each circle has its own character.

Built to be useful

Built to be useful, and to curate your circles.

Three things make Kinli worth opening: every circle gathered under your home circle, an assistant grounded in real posts, and posting so easy your circle can digest it at a glance.

01 - Blend your circles

Everything under your home circle.

Your home circle is the heart of it. Blend a town, a school group and an interest beneath it - one feed across every community you belong to, or open each on its own. And if you host, a full management panel handles requests to join, announcements, rules and members.

02 - Ask Kinli & posting

Answers from real people, not bots.

Ask Kinli searches your circle first, then beyond it, and cites every answer to a real post - nothing invented. Posting is just as easy: write a line and it’s tagged Ask, Sell or Share, so your circle can digest its content at a glance.

Going quiet

Set the crowd down, without leaving.

Quiet is a deliberate, visible pause from a busy circle - an hour, a weekend, or until you lift it. A gold moon takes over your feed so you can set it down; the people who actually need you still get through, and you come back to one calm digest.

Direct messages still reach you.

The marketplace

Write a post. Get a listing.

There’s no “list an item” form. Write the way you’d message the group - Kinli spots the sale, structures it, and posts to your circle and the marketplace at once. Free to list at launch.

For real people

Small asks, answered by people like you.

Kinli is built for the ordinary, useful moments - the recommendation, the hand-me-down, the favour returned - among people who share your world.

New to a circle

“A friend referred me, the host said yes, and within a week I’d borrowed a ladder and found a plumber the whole circle trusts.”

James Okonkwo
Walthamstow Village
New parents

“The pram went to someone in the same circle, who I’d seen post for months. No haggling with strangers - just a cup of tea and a hand-off.”

Sophie Lambert
Cotswold Mothers
A shared interest

“I joined for the tide times and stayed for the people. Same obsession, same dawn starts - I finally found my people.”

Marcus Reed
Sea Swimmers Brighton
A favour returned

“Someone lent me a thicknesser for a weekend project. A month later I drove across town to lend them mine. That’s the whole idea.”

Will Hartley
Frome Makers
