Features

Everything Kinkeep can do for the animals in your care.

Group management​

Organise animals into colonies, shelters, households, or any custom group. Each group has its own profile, an optional GPS location, and a combined timeline showing every entry from the group and all its animals in one place.

Full medical history​

Record every vet visit with its diagnosis, treatment notes, the attending clinic and staff member. The result is a complete, searchable health record for each animal.

Courses of medicine​

A course is a recurring entry: give this, every so many hours or days, for this long. The calendar works its occurrences out from the rule, so a course that runs for months costs nothing to keep, and nothing tries to count the doses against what was actually given.

A calendar that is also a timeline​

One calendar holds everything with a moment: consultations, weights, notes, activities, and the occurrences of every course. Filter by group or by animal. A single occurrence of a series can be skipped, moved or noted, and the rest of the series is untouched.

Calendars elsewhere​

Subscribe to a group's or an animal's calendar from the application you already use, or download it as an iCalendar file. See Calendar feeds.

Weight and trend tracking​

Log weight measurements over time and see at a glance whether an animal is gaining, losing or stable against the previous record. Kilograms, grams and pounds are all supported.

Rich timeline​

Every animal and every group has a chronological timeline of its entries: medical visits, weight logs, notes, photos and events. Filter by type to find what you are after in seconds.

Photos and attachments​

Attach photos and files to any entry or animal profile. Document a wound, follow physical progress after surgery, or simply keep a photographic record of each animal over the years.

Multi-user organisations​

Several volunteers share one instance under a single organisation, which has its own name, logo, registration number and user list. This is what makes the record survive a change of volunteer.

An API you can call yourself​

Everything the web client does is a documented HTTP call, and an account can issue API keys to drive it from a script, a scheduled job or a terminal. A key carries exactly what its owner may do, always expires, and can be taken away on its own. See API keys.

Free software, self-hosted​

The application is AGPL-3.0-or-later and you run it yourself, with a single podman compose up. No subscription, no advertising, and no data on somebody else's server. See Deployment.
