The problem

The first support hire copies the founder badly, or the founder never leaves the inbox. Macros feel like a robot.

Product

Kindred trains on sent mail and docs, drafts the reply, files the ticket, and asks a human only when the answer isn’t in the house style.

Traction

19 teams live. Median first response dropped from 6 hours to 14 minutes. Net retention on the paid cohort is 130%.

Market

Software companies with one to twenty people still on a shared inbox. They outgrow Gmail before they can afford a 12-person desk.

Model

Workspace fee. Lifetime offer replaces year one of the team plan.

Raise

Raising $2.2M seed. Jonah Ellison, Founder.
