Kin OAuthIn development

Know they're human. Know nothing else.

Kin OAuth will let any app, game or community check that each user is a real, unique person, with one tap and without collecting who they are.

01Why it matters

Bots are cheap. People are not.

Fake signups, farmed rewards and bot armies cost apps money and trust. Asking for more personal data only creates more to protect. Kin OAuth gives you the one answer you need.

  • A simple answer: human, and unique to your app
  • No names, emails or photos shared
  • Bots, farms and duplicate accounts kept out

02How it works

One tap. One answer.

The person confirms in the Kin ID app they already have. Your app receives a proof, never a profile.

Your app asks

Add a Kin OAuth button where you need to know someone is real: signup, rewards, voting or posting.

They confirm in Kin ID

The person sees exactly what you'll learn, and approves with one tap. Nothing else leaves the app.

You get a proof

A signed answer: this is a real person, and this is their only account in your app.

03What you receive

Everything you need. Nothing you don't.

Fewer fields means less risk. You can't leak data you never had.

04Built for

Wherever being real matters.

Social and communities

Keep feeds, comments and groups free of bots and fake followers.

Games

Fair leaderboards and matchmaking, with one player per person.

Rewards and giveaways

Make sure every reward reaches a real person, once.

Polls and voting

One person, one vote, without asking anyone to reveal who they are.

Marketplaces

Real buyers and sellers, fewer scams and fake reviews.

AI products

05Our promise to builders

Simple to add. Fair to everyone.

Private by default

You learn only what the person approves, and that is never their identity.

Made for every platform

We're designing it for the web, iOS and Android from the start.

Built in the open

We'll share the docs, the rules and the roadmap as Kin OAuth takes shape.

Kin OAuth is in development. The code on this page is a preview, and names and details may change before launch.
