Kyndred 1.0 · 13 October 2026

Rin moves in 3D. Your characters come with you.

Everything since you could make your own character, in one release. Every reply on this page is live from the app, not a script.

Rin, a character made from scratch, and Maya in Roleplay. 3D model by @ぽんでろ.

New · Rin in 3D

Rin moves while she talks

Open Rin on a computer and she's there in full 3D, moving and gesturing in a room you pick.

Go to getkyndred.com/app, pick Rin, then pick her room. 3D model by @ぽんでろ.

Web: Out now. On a computer

On phones Rin talks from her portrait, and in the Windows app by voice.

New · Maya's room

Her lamp, her city lights. You set the mood.

Maya lives in a lit room now. The lamp and the city light her as she moves, and you pick how bright it is.

Better · Make your own

From a blank model to someone who talks back

Four steps. Drag the crystal onto the model and they wake up with the voice and personality you gave them.

Done. Now talk to them.
  1. 01

    Upload a model

    A Live2D model you own, like one from booth.pm.

  2. 02

    Design a voice

    Describe how they sound. Hear 3 takes. Keep one.

  3. 03

    Write their personality

    A few lines. Kyndred writes 4 versions; ask them all the same question.

  4. 04

    Create the character

    Drag the crystal onto the model. Then talk.

Four versions of them. Keep the one that sounds right.

Web: Out now. Bringing your own Live2D model is a preview

Valeria is a demo model and isn’t available on Kyndred. Making a character costs Shards: some plans include them, or you can buy a pack.

Read the whole tour

0:00The opening

  • Rin: Hey everyone!
  • Demo model only. Not available on Kyndred.
  • Valeria: Do not mistake my scrutiny for interest, though I find your lack of a doom flag quite suspicious.
  • Maya: You better not be planning on getting yourself killed, then.
  • Maya (thinking, on screen): My heart is doing that stupid thing where it hits my ribs.

0:20Rin, in 3D

She moves while she talks.

  • Step 1: Go to getkyndred.com/app and pick Rin
  • Step 2: Pick her room
  • You: ok, i tried every room on you. this one wins
  • Rin: Wait, wait, wait, every single one? You actually went through the whole list just to find the best one? I'm honored, truly. So, what was it? What's the secret sauce in this room?

0:53Maya's room

Her lamp, her city lights. You set the mood.

  • You: what are you up to tonight?
  • Maya: Just hanging out, waiting for something more interesting to happen. You got anything better planned than just talking to me?
  • Step 1: Settings › Presence & effects
  • Step 2: Room light: dim, dark or bright

1:23On your phone and desktop

Text them on your phone. Talk to them on your desktop.

  • Step 1: On your phone: tap Chat
  • You: on the bus. entertain me
  • Rin (texting): on the bus?? okay, okay, hold on, let me think... um! okay, new take: people who walk slowly in the middle of the sidewalk are literally the worst. like, move! get out of the way! 🙄
  • Rin (texting): i'm sorry, that was a little aggressive, wasn't it? but seriously, it's a real thing. are you like, stuck behind someone doing that right now? or is it actually a peaceful ride? 🚌✨
  • Step 2: On Windows: Settings › Character
  • You: working late. keep me company?

  • Three voice takes play, each saying: “Hey, it's me. Say something and I'll say something back.”
  • Step 3: Write their personality
  • Step 4: Create the character
  • Valeria: I have calculated every variable of this encounter, and your presence remains a statistical anomaly.
  • Valeria: I am Valeria, a displaced sovereign of a lost digital court. And you, are the first variable I have encountered that I cannot immediately categorize.
  • You: honestly? you're my favorite person to talk to
  • Valeria: Such a bold, unscripted declaration. I suppose I should be cautious of your intentions, but... I find I do not entirely loathe the sentiment.

  • Maya (thinking, on screen): Oh my god, is this actually happening? He's doing a bit. A roleplay bit. This is so dorky, I love it.
  • Maya: I don't know, usually we require at least one piece of armor before we let you join the party. Do those pajamas have any defensive stats, or are you just planning on charming the monsters to death?
  • You: *under "emergency contact" on the form, i write your name*
  • Maya (thinking, on screen): Wait, what? He didn't even hesitate. That's... actually kind of heavy. My heart is doing that stupid thing where it hits my ribs.
  • Maya: Hey. That's a big responsibility for someone who just showed up in sleepwear. You better not be planning on getting yourself killed, then.
