Why KindlyKeep
How we compare with your phone carrier, and why you can trust us.
Why KindlyKeep? (compared with your phone carrier)
Keep your carrier's filter, add KindlyKeep on top. Your carrier's tools are a good first layer. KindlyKeep adds what they are not built to do.
It answers for you
Instead of only labeling a call, KindlyKeep picks up for unknown callers, asks who is calling and why, and screens new or spoofed scam numbers that a label alone may not catch. You get the real ones as a text.
Voicemail you can act on
Not just a block of transcript. Each voicemail gets a one-line subject and a category, with one-tap add to calendar, reminders, auto-reply texts, a tracker for calls you promised to return, and search across everything people said.
Protection for the whole family
Scam alerts to your family, check-ins when severe weather is near someone you love, a family code word, and an “Is this real?” check for anything suspicious.
Works on any carrier
It works with any phone company and moves with you if you switch. A family can be on different carriers and still protect each other.
Tools carriers do not offer
Business and church tools with a directory and call rules, The Vault for your important papers, and custom greetings in a voice and style you choose.
Why trust KindlyKeep?
Trust is earned. Here is what we do today, in plain words, and what is still coming.
We never sell your data
We do not sell your calls, voicemails, messages or Vault documents, and we do not share them for advertising. This is written into our Terms, so you can hold us to it. We use a few service providers to run the service, and the Privacy Policy lists them.
Locked up, with a PIN
Vault files and their names are encrypted before they are saved, and the Vault opens only with your PIN. Nothing in our own admin tools can open a Vault file.
Yours to take or delete
Download everything we keep about you, or close your account and have your data deleted within 30 days, right in the app. Cancel your plan online in two taps.
We show why
Every call we hold comes with a plain-words reason, so you can see what happened and fix a mistake.
Real people
Built in Fletcher, North Carolina, by a founder who puts his name on it. Our helpline, 828-785-4838, is answered by an automated Kindly Helper, and a person calls back within one business day.
Honest proof, only real numbers
Reviews are all published, with the true average, including the bad ones. Blocked-call counts and the average time to fix a problem come from real data and stay hidden until there is enough of it. Nothing is made up.
Easy to try
7 days free, and you can cancel any time from the app.
Coming, not claimed yet
An independent security review, a Better Business Bureau listing, and our pilot partners. We will show each one here once it is real, and not before.
Why I started KindlyKeep
I run a contracting business, and my phone is how the work gets done. For a long time I was getting five to eight spam calls and voicemails a day. Every junk call and voicemail distracted me and was very inconvenient, and my voicemail filled up with junk while real messages from customers got buried. It drove me crazy. So I found a better, easier way to keep the junk out and let the calls that matter come through. It worked so well for me that I wanted to share it. That's why I started KindlyKeep.
