About

Kinnect

Read full description

Kinnect helps you make plans with the people and communities that matter. It’s easy to say you’re interested, harder to know who’s going, and almost impossible to make the plan actually happen. Kinnect brings plans, events, updates, and people together in one place, so it’s easier to see what’s happening, join in, and stay connected. With Kinnect, you can: • See what’s happening across your communities • Show interest and see who else is going • Make lightweight plans around events, workdays, meetups, and everyday moments • Coordinate privately with the people joining you • Discover people with shared interests, contacts, and communities • Stay in the loop with updates and moments that matter For clubs, teams, groups, and communities, Kinnect makes participation easier to start and easier to sustain. When people can see what’s happening, who’s involved, and what they can join next, they have more reasons to show up, join in, and come back. Spend more time offline, Kinnect.
