How might you use Kovii?
Friends and family
Make it easier to talk to the people you already talk to, and the people you wish you talked to more often. Kovii eliminates the need for the frequently asked question of “When’s a good time for you?”
Mental health
Scrolling social media posts doesn’t strengthen friendships or mental health. Talking to friends does. Connect with your friends when you’re available or in need, and put aside the mindless scrolling.
Military and spouses
Stay connected to friends and family through your frequent moves, living in different time zones, and deployments. Kovii Premium will always be free to Active Duty Military and their spouses.

Your friends want to call, but never know when it’s a good time since your schedule is busy and always changing. With Kovii, they can be notified when you’ve marked yourself available to them.

Lower the barrier for potential and current clients to connect with you. Welcome people to bypass the need to schedule, and reduce the awkwardness of a cold call with the open invite of Kovii.

Testimonials
What people are saying
"Kovii lets me quickly connect with a friend when I need a short break from studying. It lets me manage my time so much more fluidly compared to any attempt at scheduling!"
"I LOVE Kovii!! It's like the modern version of AIM... you go there when you want to talk to your friends, and there you find your friends who also want to talk to you! It used to be hard to keep in touch when I work odd hours, but Kovii makes it easy."
"Rather than scheduling calls, I just tell my clients to call anytime they see me available on Kovii. It also works great to be more welcoming to prospective clients, resulting in more initial consults... directly helping to grow my business!"

Reconnect with Kovii
A better communications app
It's hard to stay in touch... even with your friends and family you always mean to reach out to. We forget. It's inconvenient. We don't want to interrupt another. So we scroll social media, get frustrated over politics, and rarely have conversations that push us to learn and to love. It's time for that to change. It's time we empower our relationships.
It's time for us to reconnect.

Fields such as relationships, education, mental health, counseling, coaching, consulting, or military life, just to name a few! If you’re involved in an area where people would benefit from a means to communicate that is more convenient and more personable than anything currently available, let’s get together!
We would love to have you guest write for our blog or be featured in your blog, or have us be hosted on your podcast! We are also starting an affilliate program to offer you an incentive to share Kovii on your channels. Please reach out if you are interested!

How Kovii works
Let others know when it's a good time for you to take a call
Group your contacts into Circles, and mark yourself available to which Circles you want, when you want. This offers them a passive invitation to call you.
Post a status to show others what you’re in the mood to talk about. Your status is displayed only when you’re available, and is seen only by those that you’re available to.
See when others are available for you to call them
Set notifications to know when certain contacts become available to you. This is helpful for connecting with your extra busy and hard to reach friends, by happening upon a good time to talk.
With Kovii, it’s always a good time to talk to your friends, family, and other contacts
People often worry about intruding on others with a call at a bad time. And this fear prevents people from connecting even when there’s a desire to better keep in touch. But with Kovii, your contacts know when you’re welcoming a call from them. This eliminates any hesitation that might have stopped them from reaching out. Kovii takes away the fear in making calls, which breaks the barriers to meaningfully connect with one another.
