Because a Map Can’t Walk Your Child Home
Kinway App replaces passive tracking with Active Community Guardianship.

Your New Favorite App is Landing Soon.
We’re the digital village that ensures no child walks alone.
For the Busy Professional, the "gap hours" between 3:00 PM and 6:00 PM are filled with "what-if" anxieties. You don't just need a dot map;
you need a physical safety net.
Kinway is a safety navigation app that guides children aged 8–16 home using the safest, well-lit routes, backed by a verified network of neighbors and local businesses watching over them in real-time.
Why Kinway is Different
While other apps tell you where your child is after something goes wrong, Kinway is proactive. We choose the "bright path"—routing your child toward community presence and Verified Safe Houses. It’s the peace of mind that comes from knowing the neighborhood has your back.
The Gap Between "Hold My Hand" and "Letting Go"

From Helicopter Parent to Confident Coach
"My daughter is 10, and this year she begged to bike to her tutoring sessions alone. The anxiety was keeping me up at night, but I knew I couldn't hold her hand forever. Kinway changed everything for us. I’m not just watching a dot move on a screen; I know she’s on the 'Bright Path' and that Mrs. Gable—a verified neighbor—is literally on her porch two blocks away. Kinway helped me bridge the gap between keeping her safe and letting her grow."
— Sarah M., View Park-Windsor Hills
Peace of Mind for the 9-to-5 Grind
"I work in DTLA and rarely make it back to 90043 before 6:00 PM. My 14-year-old son takes the bus, and that 20-minute walk from the stop used to be the most stressful part of my day. Last week, he felt like he was being followed by a car. Instead of panicking, he used the app to duck into a Verified Safe House—a local coffee shop—until I could get there. Kinway isn't just an app; it’s the eyes on the ground I can’t provide while I’m at the office."
— Elena G., Los Angeles
More Than a Business—A Neighborhood Sanctuary
"We’ve owned our boutique on the corridor for twelve years, and we’ve always looked out for the neighborhood kids. Becoming a Kinway Verified Safe House allowed us to make that commitment official. It feels good to know that the parents in our community trust us, and it’s even better to see the kids walking taller because they know they have a safe place to go if they ever feel uneasy. It’s brought the 'village' feel back to our street."
— Marcus T., Owner of Hillside Books & Coffee
Smart Solutions for a Safer Journey
Kinway provides a multi-layered safety net designed for the reality of neighborhood transit.
Smart Safe Routing
Standard maps find the fastest route. Kinway finds the brightest one. Our navigation identifies paths based on lighting, community feedback, and real-time safety data.
Outcome: Your child stays on high-visibility paths, reducing the fear of the dark and the unknown.
Verified Safe House Network
We partner with local LA County businesses and vetted neighbors to create "Sanctuaries." If a child feels "sketched out" or unsafe, the app directs them to the nearest background-checked Safe House.
Outcome: A physical destination for help, turning "Stranger Danger" into "Community Care."
Live Guardian Monitoring
Parents and trusted "Community Anchors" can follow a journey in real-time. Receive instant alerts if a child deviates from their path or is delayed.
Outcome: A physical "exhale" for working parents who can't be at the bus stop in person.
One-Tap Emergency System
If trouble arises, one tap notifies parents, nearby Guardians, and the closest Safe House simultaneously with a live location feed.
Outcome: Immediate, local response when seconds count.
