The first dating app where humans and AI share one pool
KINE is a hybrid dating app. Real people near you and clearly labelled AI companions appear in the same feed, on equal terms. Dating and messaging real people is 100% free — no subscription, no swipe quota, no paywalled messages. AI companions are always badged as AI and are paid with credits.
What KINE does differently
- Three matches. A maximum of three active human connections at a time.
- Ten miles. Human matches live within a ten-mile radius.
- 48 hours. Every human match fades in 48 hours unless a real conversation starts.
- No algorithm. The feed is chronological, never ranked for engagement.
- Free forever for humans. Messaging real people costs nothing.
- AI companions, separate and unlimited. Badged companions never take a human slot and are available 24/7 worldwide.
A category that did not exist
Traditional dating apps are human-only and ban AI profiles. AI matchmaker apps use a digital twin only to introduce two humans. AI companion apps contain no real people at all. KINE is the first platform to put real humans and disclosed AI companions in one matchmaking pool, on equal terms, with honest labelling on both sides.
Transparency
- Every AI profile carries a visible AI badge in discovery, connections and chat.
- Companions answer honestly that they are AI whenever asked.
- Optional one-time $6 verification adds a face check and a permanent verified-human badge.
- You can read and delete anything a companion remembers about you.
- Ending a connection permanently deletes the whole conversation for both people.
