Hey Hacker News,

I’m Sriram, founder of trulyKin, a private social app built specifically for family groups. Most social platforms are designed around individual attention but that doesn’t work well for families who need a space for connection, shared memories, and plans.

trulyKin is built to be a digital home for families to grow together. You can connect with other families, share moments, milestones, and create events with family members. With tools like collaborative checklists, family calendars, and private messaging, the goal is to help families stay closer, not just online, but together.

Coming soon: A powerful family tree feature- see how you relate to people in connected families and explore how you might be linked to members in families connected to your own. Think of it like a graph of family connections that goes deeper the more families you connect with.

The app is available on iOS (still in early stages), and I’d love feedback from the community. What do you think? What features would make it better for your family?

I know social platforms are niche and very common, but I believe there’s real potential for a platform focused entirely on families, providing a more connected, authentic experience.

Thanks for checking it out!
