How it works
Add the fictional characters you deeply relate to, from books, film, TV, or games. KindREAD reads between the lines to uncover your strengths, your values, and the challenges you carry.
Add the characters you have always felt drawn to. The ones you would want as a friend, a companion, a love. These reveal what you are truly looking for in another person.
Our matching algorithm combines character psychology with Big Five personality science to surface the people whose story overlaps most meaningfully with yours.
The characters we love say everything
"The stories we return to reveal the people we are still becoming."
