[ 01 — Origin ]
KINO was founded in Wolf Trap, Virginia —by two builders who would rather shipthan talk about shipping.
KINO makes data easier — and more accessible. AI has become a buzzword; we're building something that actually benefits everyone. Not another chatbot, but an agentic buddy that 10×'s your workflow — whatever you're trying to do. Founded by Andres Cruz and Dylan Torrey, who spent a year turning hackathon weekends into shipped product.
