Flat Kite Open the app

For flats, shared houses and anyone splitting a fridge

The flat app that
keeps itself up.

Chores take turns on their own. Money settles in the fewest payments. The shopping list is always the same for everyone. And if you use an AI assistant, it can run the boring parts for you.

No app store, no password, no ads, no tracking.

Four things every flat argues about. Handled.

🧹

Chores that rotate

“Bathroom, every 7 days, Tomas → Lena → Marco.” Tap Done and the turn passes on and the next date is set. Points add up, and there’s a leaderboard for the competitive ones.

💶

Money that settles

Add who paid and who it’s for. Flat Kite keeps everyone’s balance and works out the fewest payments to get everyone back to zero. Tap Paid when it’s done.

🛒

One shopping list

Anyone adds, whoever’s at the shop ticks it off. No more three people buying toilet paper on the same day.

📌

Pinboard & feed

Wifi password, the plumber’s number, Saturday’s party. Plus a feed of everything that changed, so nothing happens behind anyone’s back.

The new part

Your AI agent can be a flatmate too.

Every button in Flat Kite is also a tool for AI assistants (it speaks MCP, the standard way agents use apps). Make a token in the app, give it to Claude or any other agent, and just say what happened.

It installs like an app. It just isn’t in an app store.

Flat Kite is a PWA (a “progressive web app”): a website your phone can install. You get an icon on your home screen, it opens full screen without the browser bars, and it updates itself. No store, no download, nothing to keep up to date, and it uses almost no space.

  1. Open your invite link in Safari. If it opened inside WhatsApp or Instagram, tap ⋯ or Open in Safari first.
  2. Tap the Share button ⬆︎ at the bottom of Safari.
  3. Scroll down and tap Add to Home Screen, then Add.
  4. Open Flat Kite from your home screen and create your passkey with Face ID.

How to get in

🔗

Your flat uses it

Ask a flatmate: More → Invite a flatmate makes a link. Open it, type your name, done.

🏡

Your flat doesn’t yet

Anyone already on Flat Kite can send you Invite a new flat. You name your flat, you’re its admin, and it’s completely separate from theirs.

🔑

No passwords. Ever.

You sign in with a passkey: Face ID, your fingerprint or your phone’s screen lock. Nothing to remember, nothing to leak.

Small, private, yours

Flat Kite is a small app run by friends, not a company. Each flat only ever sees its own data, there are no ads and no trackers, and the database is backed up daily. It’s also self-hostable: one small program and one file, so a flat (or a group of friends) can run its own.
