Kinkeep, a family tree built for families
A family-history platform where relatives maintain linked branches, merge existing GEDCOM trees reversibly, and keep living people private.
Field notes
The service is designed around overlapping family trees rather than a single global tree. Its proposed workflow preserves conflicting claims, records each person’s source tree, and lets users undo a merge or terminate a branch link, including cached data. The privacy model says living people remain unnamed in shared links and excluded from exports when they request removal. The homepage also states that no DNA data is stored and that the project remains in development for early users.
