Our story

Why I built Kinovo.

I'm Callum, the founder of Kinovo. My family's experience of coordinating support for my sister shaped the product I wanted to build.

Supporting my sister involves family members and professionals, each bringing their own knowledge and responsibilities.

I saw how much useful information those people held. A report arrived by email. A conversation happened by phone. An update stayed in a message thread. Bringing those pieces together took work.

I wanted to create a shared place where the people involved could contribute around the person they support: understand what matters, find useful information and see what needs to happen next.

That became Kinovo.

I think of it as a virtual round table for the care team. The participant stays at the centre, their trusted people help direct the workspace, and professionals contribute their part.

The aim is practical: make it easier for the people supporting someone to work together, with clear responsibility and deliberate access.

Kinovo is owned and operated by Kinovo Pty Ltd, an Australian company.

Three ideas behind the product.

Keep the person at the centre.

Their priorities guide the shared work.

Make contribution straightforward.

Give each person a clear way to add information, respond and help.

Keep responsibility shared.

The family should be able to ask for useful contributions from the people best placed to provide them.

Help shape a more useful Kinovo.

We welcome feedback from participants, families and professionals about what makes coordination easier.
