Startup Name: Kinhive
Tagline: Kinhive is an AI-powered matchmaking platform for women-led startups. We help solo founders find aligned co-founders, collaborators, and early team members across tech, marketing, ops, and more.
Elevator Pitch: Kinhive is an AI-powered matchmaking platform designed to help solo female founders and women-led businesses build stronger, more resilient teams. Our platform uses multi-step, qualitative and quantitative AI matchmaking to help connect founders and skilled women across tech, marketing, ops, and more—based not just on skills, but on working style, personality, life stage, and more. Our platform includes built-in messaging, customizable legal templates, and flexible filters for contract, part-time, or equity-based roles. It’s free to use and designed to grow with women at every stage of startup life and business.
Target Market: Female-founders and women freelancers or collaborators
How will you make money?: Kinhive follows a freemium model. The free plan includes full access to AI matchmaking, messaging, and essential collaboration tools. Paid tiers include Member Pro at $24 per month, which offers unlimited team access, increased visibility, and access to the community, and Founder Pro at $48 per project per month, which includes unlimited collaborators, a full legal template library, private video rooms, and enhanced security features. In addition to subscriptions, we plan to introduce two future revenue channels: a member-driven marketplace where users can sell templates, services, or startup-related offers (with Kinhive capturing a percentage of each transaction), and affiliate partnerships that refer users to trusted tools and services such as legal support, financial platforms, or founder software. These revenue streams align with our mission and enhance the value of the platform without compromising trust or user experience.
How much capital have you raised?: None
