About

Kado

Read full description

Kado is a social space where your taste is expressed through things. Save the things you want, say why they matter, mark the ones you own, and write what you think once you have lived with them. Your shelf becomes a profile — not a bio, but the objects themselves. See it. Save it. Say why. Share a link from any app straight into Kado and the item lands on your shelf with its image and source, and its price when the page lists one. On a computer there is a Chrome extension; on a phone, the share sheet. Discover people, through things Look through what other people keep, and why they keep it. Follow the ones whose taste you trust, re-save something onto your own shelf, leave a comment, ask what you would ask a friend. Your collection can be a wishlist, too Send yours before a birthday, look at theirs before you buy. A friend can take a Kado Intent on an item so that no one doubles up, and you only ever see that something is taken — never who took it. You get a notification when someone does something: a follow, a re-save, a like, a comment, a review. Nothing that nags you about your own shelf. Books, records, clothes, fragrance, kitchen things, furniture — anything with a page, and anything without one. Kado is available in English, 简体中文, 日本語, 한국어 and Français.

Far away, still close by. The shortest way to reach you. ppip is a voice messenger where every friend hangs on your wall as their own receiver. Reach them with your voice, with a number the way pagers used to work — or with a text straight out of the flip-phone days. ■ The receiver is how they are right now Hanging on the wall means LIVE — your voice plays on their phone the moment you send it. Nothing to tap, no app to open. It just arrives, as if you were standing right next to them. Taken down means voicemail — voices wait quietly and play together when they put the receiver back. One glance at the wall tells you who is there and whether now is a good time. ■ Send just a number, like a pager Step into the payphone and punch in 8282, or 1004. When you can't say a word out loud, a number still gets through. It scrolls across the little screen on their wall, and what it means is between the two of you. ■ No read receipts, no typing indicators All that's left is a voice, and which way the receiver is facing. Nothing nags for an answer, so you say what you meant to say and you each listen when it suits you. ■ Five seconds is plenty Some things are too small for a phone call and too warm for a text. Keep it short and the voice still arrives with all its warmth. (ppip+ gives you 30 seconds.) ■ One room, everyone at once Send to a group and it reaches everyone in the room at the same time — like an announcement over the building speakers, without any warning. ■ 숳 — for the things you couldn't tell anyone Leave a voice or a few words without your name, and the people listening to the same story gather beside you as little pixel people. The cheers they tap fly over from each of them and pile up, and the words they leave float above their heads and walk along with them. Posts disappear after 24 hours. Bamboo 숳 — I couldn't tell anyone, but I hope someone listens Let-Go 숳 — While it rains, let's agree to do nothing Today I'm the Star Forest — Celebrating the small, dazzling moments Lonely Island Forest — I want to be alone, but I don't want to be lonely Campfire Forest — A way to say goodbye to what kept hurting me Moon Jar Forest — Because the heart needs a quiet place to keep things, too Money Rain Suh — Get struck — by a downpour of money You can make your own 숳, too. Pick a background photo, a receiver, reactions, sounds and a subtitle — or open it as a private 숳 that only your friends can enter. ■ Retro Texts Flip-phone-era texts, text art, even number codes. Lay a grainy old-webcam photo behind it and send. Texts get a voice too — have it read in a recommended voice or your own, and it plays the moment it arrives. Texts you receive show up on your lock screen and widget, photo and all. ■ You decide how people reach you Stay live for a few hours. Go quiet on its own at night. Let voices through even on silent. Record a voicemail greeting in your own voice — and set all of it friend by friend. ■ Right from the lock screen Voices play straight out of the notification. A home screen widget puts your receiver up or takes it down, and a pager on your lock screen holds the numbers you've been sent. ■ A wall that looks like you Pick the material and color of your receiver, add stickers and photos, choose your wall color and your message window skin. The receiver your friends see is the one you made.
