Kinverse turns relationships, stories, and generations into one connected graph. You don't have to wait for launch — explore it today on a real family.

We'll write you when access opens. No newsletter spam, no third-party sharing.

This week in the graph

Victoria

1819–1901 · Queen of the United Kingdom · grandmother of Europe

63 years on the throne, nine children, many of them married into European thrones. The demo makes it visible why she's called the grandmother of Europe — half the European aristocracy descends from her.

How it works

Three steps. Then the graph comes alive.

01

Begin with you

Add yourself as the first node. First name is enough — everything else comes later.

02

Let relationships grow

Parents, siblings, partner, children. Kinverse names every relationship correctly — across generations and in-law lines.

03

Preserve the stories

Photos, places, life events, anecdotes. Scattered data becomes a family chronicle that lasts.

What sets Kinverse apart

Four promises no other provider keeps the same way.

01Live

Kinship Engine

Correct kinship terminology across generations. nth-degree cousins, maternal and paternal lines kept separate, in-laws cleanly modeled — for the first time at this depth.

02Coming 2026

From memories to a family tree

Record when your grandparents tell their stories. Write along when that fits better. Kinverse reads or listens, recognizes people, places, and events — and weaves them into your family tree.

03Live

EU-First with DACH archives

Your data in European data centers, full GDPR — from day one. Coming next: the church archives Archion, Matricula, and CompGen, plus AI transcription for Kurrent and Sütterlin scripts.

Fair Pricing Pledge

No silent auto-renewals. No cancellation fees. No dark patterns. In writing — and legally enforceable.

What sets us apart

Other platforms solve family trees. We solve kinship.

Not every genealogy service ticks the same. Here are the points where we deliberately make different choices.

Common today
How we do it
“Cousin” as a catch-all, maternal and paternal lines blended.
Correct relationship terms across every generation. Aunt on the mother's side, uncle by marriage, nth-degree cousin — named precisely.
Servers in the US, with sub-processors in multiple countries.
Everything in the EU. Postgres and Neo4j in Frankfurt, photos in an EU bucket. Full GDPR with no back door.
Ad trackers on the page, profiles built for targeting.
No trackers. Vercel Analytics is anonymous and cookieless.
Funded by reselling user data.
Funded by you. Your data never leaves the platform.
Hard to cancel, auto-renewal without warning.
Fair Pricing Pledge: one-click cancellation, clear advance notice, no fees.
When the service is gone, the data is gone.
Digital Afterlife Charter: in case of insolvency you get a GEDCOM export plus an open web build you can self-host.

Frequently asked

Before you sign up.

Answers to what we get asked most. If something's missing: kontakt@kinverse.family.

  • What sets Kinverse apart from Ancestry or MyHeritage?
    The kinship engine. We compute relationship terms correctly — maternal and paternal lines kept separate, across every generation, even in the tricky cases (uncle-niece marriages, half-siblings, godparents). On top of that: EU-hosted, no data sales, no ad tracking, and a charter that governs what happens to your family tree after you die. We're not a genealogy tool, we're a kinship network.
  • Where is my data stored?
    In the EU only. Postgres and Neo4j run in Frankfurt (AWS Europe Central 1 and Google Cloud europe-west3), photos in Cloudflare R2 (EU bucket), email via Resend (Ireland). No data leaves the EU. Full GDPR compliance, no "US subprocessor through the back door".
  • What happens to my family tree if Kinverse goes bankrupt?
    The Digital Afterlife Charter governs this. In the event of insolvency you receive a full GEDCOM and JSON export of your data, plus an open web build you can self-host. Your family tree belongs to you, not to us.
  • Who can see my family profile?
    By default, only you and the people you explicitly invite. There are three roles: Owner (everything), Editor (can edit), Viewer (read-only). On top of that, a proximity gradient applies per person: parents see more detail than distant cousins. Configured in detail in our visibility model docs.
  • How do I migrate my 23andMe account?
    23andMe is insolvent — your DNA raw data and relative matches are precious. On our DNA migration page we walk you through the steps to secure your account and data before they disappear. Import into Kinverse arrives with Phase 2.
  • Does every cousin get the same access?
    No. Each invited person gets a role you set — and for every individual person in the tree, only you and your closest relatives see the full data. Distant family sees initials and rough context, no sensitive details. Fully configurable.
  • What does Kinverse cost?
    The Fair Pricing Pledge establishes: one price per family, not per person. The price will be announced with the public launch in 2026 — and fixed in a sealed pledge, so we can't quietly raise it later. During alpha and pilot, the service is free to use.
  • Is Kinverse a Swiss company?
    No, an Austrian one. The current service provider is INVENTIO GmbH in Rohrbach an der Gölsen (Lower Austria). The standalone Kinverse entity will be set up with the public launch and first funding round — the founding structure (DACH or NL/LU) is still open.
  • When will the app open for me?
    The app has been in Phase 1 alpha since May 2026 (app.kinverse.family) and opens gradually for early users. The waitlist notifies you when your slot is ready. Public access is planned for 2026.
  • Can I import GEDCOM files?
    Yes. GEDCOM 5.5.1 import and export are both live — Ancestry, MyHeritage and FamilySearch exports load in without conversion, and you can download a GEDCOM file any time if you decide to leave. Plus: AI import from free text ("my grandfather was named…") and manual entry.
