Boise, ID - July 29, 2025 - Qwoted Newswire - Kinhive is a platform purpose-built for women-led startups to find collaborators, grow projects, and get unstuck—with the help of AI-powered matchmaking and a private, members-only community. Since launching, it’s become a trusted space for founders and contributors to connect over aligned goals and shared values.
Now, Kinhive is introducing Anonymous Mode, a new feature in its private chat that lets members ask and answer questions without attaching their names, encouraging honest conversations around the often-unspoken parts of leadership, motherhood, finances, and more.
“As entrepreneurs ourselves, so much of our business has been made possible because of the advice we’ve received from other women,” says Maggie Sfingi, co-founder of Kinhive and software development agency Merakite. “Anonymous Mode is a tool for women to get and share advice on topics that might still feel ‘off-limits’ to talk about.”
Whether it’s navigating guilt as a working mom, negotiating compensation, deciding whether to quit a corporate job, or simply admitting doubt, Anonymous Mode makes it easier to have the conversations that rarely get airtime elsewhere.
How Anonymous Mode works:
- Post questions, ask for advice, and more without sharing your name
- Respond anonymously to others with honest insights and personal experience
- Get advice on identity-sensitive topics without needing to “perform” expertise
- Participate more fully in conversations that go beyond surface-level wins
“This isn’t about hiding behind a throwaway account,” says co-founder and twin sister Caitie Sfingi. “It’s about making room for more honest questions and more honest answers.”
More space for the real conversations
Anonymous Mode expands on Kinhive’s mission to support women not just as founders, but as full people navigating ambition, uncertainty, and change. It joins a growing suite of tools including:
- AI-driven team matchmaking based on skills, values, and working style
- Flexible filters for contract, equity-only, and part-time roles
- Built-in messaging, legal templates, and community access
Kinhive is free to join and available across the U.S. and select international markets. Learn more or sign up at kinhive.com.
