Kindbody is a digital platform that connects you with fertility clinics, financial programs, and mental health support in one place
Kindbody is a free app and website that helps you find fertility clinics near you, learn about financing options for treatment, and access counseling or support groups. You create a profile, answer questions about what you're looking for, and the platform shows you clinics in your area along with their costs, success rates, and what insurance they accept. It also connects you to loans, grants, and employer benefits that can help pay for fertility care.
The platform does not provide medical care itself — it's a directory and matching tool. Kindbody makes money when clinics and financial partners pay to be listed, but the service is free for you to use. You control what information you share and can contact clinics directly through the app or by phone.

How to set up your Kindbody profile
read the Kindbody app from the Apple App Store or Google Play, or visit kindbody.com on your browser. Tap "Sign Up" and enter your email address and a password. You'll be asked to confirm your email by clicking a link they send you.
Next, answer questions about what you're looking for: whether you want to freeze eggs or sperm, pursue IVF, explore adoption, or get a fertility evaluation. You can also say you're not sure yet. Kindbody uses these answers to show you relevant clinics and resources. You can change your answers anytime by editing your profile.
Add your location so the app can show clinics within a distance you choose. You don't have to share your full address — your zip code is enough. Kindbody will display clinics ranked by distance and let you filter by insurance acceptance, treatment type, and whether they offer financing.
Finding and comparing fertility clinics on the platform
Once your profile is set up, tap "Find a Clinic" or "Clinics" in the main menu. The app shows a map and a list of clinics near you. Each clinic listing includes the clinic's name, address, distance from you, whether they accept your insurance, and a link to their website.
Tap on any clinic to see more detail: treatment options they offer, whether they have financial counselors on staff, patient reviews, and sometimes their success rates (called SART data, which comes from the Society for Assisted Reproductive Technology). Some clinics display their average cost for common procedures like egg freezing or IVF. Costs vary widely by clinic and by procedure, so comparing several is worth your time.
You can save clinics to a "Favorites" list by tapping the heart icon. This makes it straightforward to compare two or three clinics side by side later. You can also message clinics directly through the app to ask questions about their services, costs, or whether they're currently taking new patients.
Using Kindbody to explore financing options
Tap "Financing" in the main menu to see loans, grants, and employer benefits that may help pay for fertility treatment. Kindbody displays programs from companies like Progyny (an employer benefit), Carrot Fertility (which offers grants and discounts), and lenders like Prosper Healthcare and Fertility Credit. Each program shows what it covers, how much it costs or what interest rate it charges, and a link to learn more.
Some employers offer fertility benefits through programs like Progyny or Maven Clinic without you knowing it. If your employer is listed, you can see what's included — often discounts at partner clinics, coverage for certain procedures, or mental health support. Check your employee benefits handbook or ask your HR department if you're unsure whether your employer offers fertility coverage.
Kindbody also shows grants from nonprofits like RESOLVE (the National Infertility Association) and the Fertility Within Reach program, which offer money to people who meet income requirements. These are not loans — you don't repay them. The requirements and amounts vary, so read each program's details carefully.
Accessing mental health resources through Kindbody
Fertility treatment can be emotionally demanding. Kindbody includes a "Mental Health" or "Support" section where you can find therapists who specialize in fertility issues, support groups, and educational content about the emotional side of pursuing fertility treatment.
You can search for therapists by location and insurance, and many offer virtual appointments. Kindbody also lists support groups — some run by clinics, some by nonprofits like RESOLVE — where you can talk with others going through similar experiences. These groups may meet in person or online.
Messaging clinics and scheduling consultations
When you find a clinic you want to learn more about, tap the message icon to send them a question through the app. You can ask about their treatment options, costs, whether they're accepting new patients, or anything else. Clinic staff typically respond within one to two business days.
Some clinics let you schedule a consultation directly through Kindbody by tapping "Schedule Consultation." You'll see available appointment times and can book one. Other clinics may ask you to call them or fill out a form on their website instead. Either way, Kindbody keeps a record of your messages and appointments in one place so you can track your conversations with each clinic.
What information Kindbody collects and how it's used
Kindbody collects your email, location, and the answers you give about what kind of fertility care you're interested in. The company says it does not sell your personal information to third parties. Clinics and financial partners can see that you're interested in their services, but they don't see your full profile unless you message them or schedule a consultation.
Read Kindbody's privacy policy on their website if you want to know exactly what data they collect and how they use it. You can delete your account anytime, which removes your profile from their system.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does Kindbody tell me which clinic is best for me?
No. Kindbody shows you clinics, their costs, and their success rates, but it doesn't rank them or recommend one over another. The "best" clinic depends on your specific situation, your insurance, your budget, and what matters most to you. You'll need to compare clinics yourself and talk to them directly to decide.
Can I use Kindbody if my insurance doesn't cover fertility treatment?
Yes. Kindbody shows clinics that accept uninsured patients and displays financing options like loans and grants that don't require insurance. Many clinics offer self-pay pricing for people without coverage. You'll see these options when you filter by insurance type or message clinics directly.
Does Kindbody charge a fee to use it?
No. Creating a profile, searching for clinics, messaging clinics, and viewing financing options are all free. Kindbody makes money from clinics and financial companies that pay to be listed on the platform, not from you.
Can I see a clinic's success rates on Kindbody?
Some clinics display their success rates (SART data) on their Kindbody profile. Not all clinics choose to share this information on the platform. You can also find success rates on the CDC's website or by calling clinics directly and asking for their data.
What should I do after I message a clinic through Kindbody?
Wait for the clinic to respond — usually one to two business days. If you don't hear back, you can call the clinic directly using the phone number listed on their profile. Some clinics prefer phone calls for scheduling consultations, so don't hesitate to call if you want to move faster.
