Built for Organizations
Kindros provides colleges, companies, and community organizations with their own customized, private, and secure financial knowledge platform.
Kindros is a proprietary learning management system that is easily customized to support colleges, companies, and community organizations. In the software industry, this type of system is known as a "b2b" platform, which is a term that means "business to business". Our platform is highly secure, redundant, scalable, and hosted at a commercial grade facility with Amazon Web Service (AWS).
Features and Benefits
Kindros helps organizations enhance their financial wellness programs by providing an unbiased source of financial knowledge.
Unbiased Financial Knowledge
Kindros is completely different than many sources. It is built from the ground up to provide unbiased financial knowledge. We focus 100% on education. We do not sell financial products, advertising, or user data.

Misaligned incentives
There are many sources of financial knowledge available online. However many of them have a primary motive of selling their own financial products. This is the case with virtually all banks, insurance companies, credit card issuers, and investment companies.
Other sources may appears to be unbiased, and may actually claim to be unbiased, however their business model is to get people to click on an advertisement or complete an online form. This type of content is known as "click bait" and these types of businesses are called "lead generation" platforms, because they get paid for generating sales leads for other financial companies.
The third type of company provides financial knowledge in order to capture data about people and sell this data to companies who will then try and profit from this information.
Kindros is a pure knowledge company. We don't sell financial products, advertisements, or your data and we never will.
Easy to Launch
The Kindros platform is super easy to launch and manage. It runs in the cloud and can be up and running in less than 15 minutes.
Easy to Learn
We meet people where they are in terms of their starting knowledge, experience, and interests. Kindros makes it easy for people to learn by providing multiple learning methods.
Self Directed
Because people often start off with different levels of financial knowledge, we built a self-directed curriculum that allows people to explore topics on their own time, at their own pace.
Inquiry Based
The Inquiry Based approach is a time-tested method for engaging people in the learning process using short quizzes which provide instant feedback and reinforce important principles.
Personalized Exercises
Our built in personalized exercises let people see the impact of decisions based on their own goals, factors, and choices. Each scenario is incorporated directly into the learning module to provide context and relevance.
Guided Instruction
Kindros is an excellent platform for blended learning programs. Our online system can be used to support live instruction and training, making it easy to manage the details of testing, scoring, and data analysis.
Live Sessions
We provide regular opportunities for people to explore topics through optional live sessions, podcasts, and direct updates.
