What’s a circle

Start a circle, or join one you’re referred into.

A circle is a place (your street, your town) or an interest you share. You come in by a referral or an invitation from someone already there, or by asking and having the host let you in. There is no open door into someone else’s circle, that’s what keeps every conversation honest and every reply kind. Anyone can join Kinli and start a circle of their own. Starting one adds 30 free days of Founder to your trial, no card needed; after that Founder is £14 a month.

Start a circle

Gather your people and set the tone. Choose how it’s defined:

A place. Pin a spot and a radius, or a named region like the Cotswolds.
An interest. A hobby, a class, a school gate; no map required.
Start a circle
Join by referral

Someone already in the circle refers or invites you, or you ask to join and the host lets you in.

Every member came in by invitation or the host’s yes
Join Kinli

Every circle is its own world.

A place, a school gate, a yoga class, a hobby. Each one has its own character.

How you take part

Ask, share, and offer.

Three kinds of post, one simple composer. Ask and share live inside your circle; offering opens the marketplace.

Ask
Put a real question to your circle, and get answers from people you trust.
Share
Pass on something useful: a tip, a heads-up, a trusted contact.
Offer
List something for sale to a good home. It opens the marketplace.
Ask

Ask the circle, and Kinli’s already looking.

Post a question and real neighbours answer. You don’t have to wait, and you don’t have to crawl the group. The moment you ask, Kinli Radar looks across your circle for the pros people recommend and the answers already given. Only you can see it.

Everyone gets the Radar. Insiders reach beyond their own circles.

Share what’s worth passing on.

The recommendation, the heads-up, the trusted contact: the small, useful things you pass on expecting nothing back. Add a photo or a contact card and Kinli lays it out cleanly.

Smart search

InsiderAI

Ask Kinli AI

Kinli reads those posts and writes back the answer, across every circle you’re in, with the pros to call and the sources it drew from. Unlimited, fair usage applies. If no one’s covered it, it never makes something up.

InsiderIt drafts for you, too. Turn your question straight into an ask to your circle.
The marketplace

Write a post. Get a listing.

There’s no form to go looking for. Write the way you’d message the group. Kinli spots the sale, fills the listing in for you, and posts it to your circle and the marketplace at once.

Buyer and seller talk it through privately, inside Kinli. No phone numbers passed around the group.

Collected - sale complete

Listing is included on every membership, unlimited. When something sells we take a fee from the sale price, 7% + 25p on Friend, 6% + 25p on Insider and 5% + 25p on Founder when the buyer pays with a card issued in the UK, and 8.5% + 30p, 7.5% + 30p and 6.5% + 30p respectively when their card was issued outside the UK. We hold the payment until a collection is confirmed, then pay the seller.

Going quiet

Set the crowd down, without leaving.

Quiet is a 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. Direct messages still reach you, and you come back to one calm digest.

Privacy & trust

Built on trust, not reach.

Kinli only works if the people inside are real, and vouched for. Trust isn’t a setting here. It’s how the app is built.

Trust, built socially

No cold directory, no open door. Every circle is joined by a personal referral from someone who already knows you, or approved by its host.

Verified pros

Professionals appear because your circle recommends them, and can be verified as a sole trader or, for limited companies, checked against Companies House.

Private by design

No ads and no attention-farming. Your direct messages are encrypted at rest.

People just like you

Circles can be large. What holds them together is that everyone arrived through someone. Nobody is more than a connection away. That shared connection is why the replies are kind and the marketplace stays a good home for what you sell.
