How It Works

Zero setup. Intelligent results.

Kizunae runs quietly in the background — learning your patterns and surfacing what matters, without any manual input.

The Core Loop

Import → Score → Detect → Reconnect → Review

Import

On first launch, Kizunae reads your contacts and — on Android — your call history. Nothing else. No message content, no recordings, no location. Just the metadata: who you called, when, and for how long.

You'll be shown a plain-language Trust Screen before any permission is requested. You can exclude specific contacts from tracking at any time.

Data collected per contact: Display name · SHA-256 hash of phone number (never plaintext) · Call timestamps, duration & direction · Optional label (Friend / Family / Work)
Score

Every relationship receives a Relationship Health Score from 0 to 100, computed entirely on your device. The model weighs four signals:

Frequency 35%
Recency 30%
Consistency 20%
Historical 15%

Scores are recomputed daily in the background and power every surface in the app — the Home screen, Social Garden, and Contact Detail.

Detect Drift

For each contact, Kizunae builds a historical communication baseline (trailing 6 months). When the current gap exceeds twice your personal average for that person, drift is flagged.

"You used to talk to Rahul every 2 weeks. It's been 89 days since your last conversation."

Drift alerts are only generated when there are at least 3 historical data points — protecting you from false positives on new or occasional contacts. You can snooze any alert for 7, 14, or 30 days.

Reconnect

For every flagged contact, Kizunae surfaces actions that reduce activation energy to zero. One tap — and you're already in the dialer, in Messages, or in WhatsApp.

📞 Call
💬 Text
💚 WhatsApp
🔔 Remind Me

When you take an action, Kizunae records it — updating the contact's last-interaction date and recalculating their score. You can also mark a contact as "Reached Out" manually.

Review

Every Sunday, a gentle push notification surfaces your Weekly Relationship Review — a snapshot of where your social health stands, and who needs attention this week.

The review screen shows counts by state with week-over-week deltas, and lets you take actions (call, text, snooze) directly without leaving the review.

Relationship States

One look tells you everything.

Every contact is placed in one of five states. The colour is the message.

Regularly in touch. This relationship is growing.
Score 80–100

Healthy, consistent cadence. Things are steady.
Score 60–79
Drifting
Getting less frequent. Worth noticing now.
Score 40–59
Fading
Reconnect soon — this needs your attention.
Score 20–39
Lost Touch
Reach out today. Don't let this one slip away.
Score 0–19
