## Description

You're not your selfies. You're what you love, what you listen to, what you can't stop thinking about. That's what your match sees first.

Kindred is a dating app where you match on mood boards instead of photos of your face.

Here's how it works: you build a mood board -- colours, images, voice notes, music, tiny graphics, anything that feels like you. Other people see your board, react to the pieces that move them, and from those reactions, matches happen.

Mood boards do the matching, not photos. No swipe culture. No AI bots pretending to be people.

Why mood boards?
Because what someone is like tells you more than what they look like. The way they curate the things they love is more revealing than ten posed photos.

What you'll find on Kindred:
- A mood board builder for expressing yourself with images, voice notes, music, colour, and graphics
- An optional profile photo if you want one -- but your board does the talking
- Real-time chat with text and voice messages once you match
- Block, report, and unmatch tools that actually work
- 18+ only. No exceptions.

What you won't find:
- Looks-based matching
- Targeted advertising
- Dark patterns designed to keep you swiping
- Your data used to train AI models

Built solo from Christchurch, New Zealand. Made for people tired of the photo-based grind. If that's you -- meet you on the inside.

Kindred. Date what's beneath.
