Keen is the behemoth of the online psychic industry. Operating since 1999, they boast a staggering network of over 1,700 active advisors at any given time. This sheer volume is Keen's greatest strength, but it can also be its primary weakness for beginners who don't know how to navigate the platform.
I spent a month actively testing Keen's tarot readers. I took advantage of their famous introductory offer, tested their "Get Matched" tool, and purposely sought out readings on obscure topics to test the breadth of their network. Here is my honest assessment.
The Keen Experience: Scale and Accessibility
1. The Incredible Introductory Offer
Let's talk about the elephant in the room: 10 minutes for $1.99.
This is arguably the best entry-level offer in the entire psychic industry. For less than the price of a cup of coffee, you get a substantial chunk of time to connect with a reader. Ten minutes is plenty of time to ask a focused question, have the reader pull a 3-card spread, and discuss the outcome in detail.
Expert Tip: Use these 10 minutes wisely. Have your questions written down before you initiate the call or chat. Do not waste the first two minutes talking about the weather.
2. Navigating the Network
Because Keen has thousands of advisors, you cannot just click the first profile you see. Keen operates as a directory service, not an agency. This means they do not aggressively screen the psychic abilities of every single person who signs up to read.
You must rely on user reviews.
Fortunately, Keen has a robust and transparent review system. I strongly advise using their advanced search filters. You can filter by:
- Skills: Tarot, Empath, Medium, Clairvoyant
- Specialties: Love, Career, Deceased Loved Ones
- Price: From $1.99/min to $30.00+/min
- Star Rating: Always filter for 4.8 stars or higher.
The Quality of the Tarot Readers
I found the tarot reading quality on Keen to be highly variable. The top 10% of readers on Keen are genuinely world-class—intuitive, deeply empathetic, and highly accurate. The bottom 20% are likely well-meaning amateurs who bought a deck a week ago.
To find the top tier, you must read the written reviews on their profiles. Look for reviews that mention specific details the reader picked up on, rather than just vague praise like "she was nice."

Pros and Cons
✓ The Good
- Unbeatable 10 minutes for $1.99 intro offer.
- Massive network guarantees someone is online 24/7/365.
- Excellent filtering tools to find niche specialties.
- Very affordable mid-tier readers.
✗ The Bad
- Less rigorous initial screening process than Psychic Source.
- No free minutes to "test" the connection before paying.
The Final Verdict: Should You Use Keen?
If you are on a tight budget, or if you are looking for a highly specific niche reading (e.g., past life regressions, pet psychics, numerology), Keen is an absolute must-try.
The 10 minutes for $1.99 deal is essentially risk-free. If you are willing to spend 5 minutes reading reviews and filtering advisors before making a call, you can find incredibly gifted tarot readers on Keen who charge a fraction of what they would on other premium platforms.
