NOW AVAILABLE · EU-BUILT · 2026

Scammers, bullies, predators.

BUILT ON STANDARDS YOU CAN TRUST
  • Signal Protocol
  • GDPR & DSA native
  • Hosted in the EU
  • No tracking

THE PROBLEM NOBODY FIXED

Every app secured your messages.
None of them protected your peace.

Encryption keeps strangers out. It does nothing about the bullying, the scams, or the message that made your kid go quiet.

THE GAP KINDCHAT CLOSES

ENCRYPTION IS TABLE STAKES. PROTECTION ISN'T.

They lock the door.
KindChat guards what's inside.

WhatsApp, Telegram and Signal all encrypt your chats. Not one of them stops the scam, the slur or the predator once it's in. KindChat does.

Comparison reflects each app's default behaviour, 2026. Encryption isn't the difference. What happens to the harmful message is.

BUILT FOR THE PEOPLE WHO GET TARGETED

The same threat, handled four ways.

Scammers, bullies and predators pick their targets. KindChat protects each one, without reading a word.

  • Your kids

    Grooming and bullying caught before they land. Without you reading a word.

  • Your parents

    The fake "hi mum," the bank text, the crypto "friend." Blocked before they're seen.

  • You

    Group chats without the pile-ons. A DM that can't turn into an unwanted explicit image. Quiet you can feel.

  • Everyone

    One fair standard for all. Real privacy, built in the EU.

HOW THE PROTECTION WORKS

Checked on your phone.
Then locked so even we can't look.

It all happens on your phone, in the half-second before "send." The cloud never sees a thing.

  1. 01

    Checked before it's sent

    Your phone checks each message first, never a server. Scams, insults and bad images get caught on the spot.

  2. 02

    Then sealed end-to-end

    Then it's sealed with the Signal Protocol. Readable on both phones, nowhere else.

  3. 03

    Checked again on arrival

    The receiving phone checks once more, so the rules hold even on a tampered app.

EVERYTHING YOU EXPECT, PLUS THE PART YOU DON'T

A full messenger. With a conscience.

  • Civility protection

    Insults, bullying, scams and bad images caught on your device. The same fair standard for everyone.

  • True end-to-end encryption

    Chats, calls and media sealed with the Signal Protocol. Post-quantum keys ready for tomorrow's threats.

  • Encrypted voice & video

    Crystal-clear 1:1 calls that the server only relays and never records. What's said stays between you.

  • Pulse, your circle only

    A feed seen only by your own contacts. No strangers, no algorithm, no public stage to perform on.

  • Your Care Circle

    One plan covers your whole family. Six people, each fully protected. Peace of mind for everyone you love.

  • No tracking. Ever.

    You sign up with a phone number, never your address book. You're the customer, not the product.

FOR THE PEOPLE YOU WORRY ABOUT

Hand your teen a phone, not a worry.

One plan protects up to six people, without you reading a single message. Not surveillance. A guardrail that respects their privacy as much as it protects them.

  • Bullying and grooming caught before it lands
  • You see nothing private, and neither do we
  • One plan, six people, zero compromises on privacy

THE QUESTION EVERYONE ASKS

"Wait. If KindChat checks my messages,
can it read them?"

No. And it never can.

It all happens on the device, before encryption, the way spellcheck works inside the app. Nothing readable ever leaves the device, and once a message is sealed, not even we can open it.

  • Checked on-device only
  • No content in any log
  • The provider can't read along

Time to chat in peace.

KindChat is here. Free for iPhone and Android, with no tracking. Get the app and bring the people who matter most.

Questions, answered

Is this a kids' app or a parental-control tool?

Neither. It's a full messenger for everyone aged 16 and up who wants a respectful tone and real privacy. The same standard applies to all. There's no monitoring dashboard, and no one, parent or provider, can read your chats.

Doesn't filtering messages break encryption?

No. That's the whole trick. The check runs on your device before the message is encrypted, the way spellcheck reads what you type. Once it's sealed with the Signal Protocol, not even we can open it.

Is it censorship? Who decides what's "kind"?

It targets clear harm: insults, bullying, scams, unsolicited explicit images. Not opinions or hard conversations. In sensitive moments it nudges rather than blocks. The standard is the same for everyone, transparent, and appealable under EU rules.

Where is my data, and who can see it?

Everything lives in the EU (Germany), GDPR-native, with EU-only sub-processors. Message content never appears in logs, notifications or monitoring. You sign up with a phone number, never your address book. No tracking, no selling you on.

How do I get KindChat, and what does it cost?

KindChat is free on the App Store (iPhone, iOS 15 or later) and on Google Play (Android 10 or later). Full protection is always included and never sits behind a paywall. If you want more comfort, you can upgrade to KindChat Plus in the app.

WHY WE BUILT KINDCHAT

Encryption protected the message. It left the person on their own. We built KindChat to protect both.
