How it works
A few conversations now. Their story forever.
No writing, no effort. If they can talk, they can do this.
Choose what to capture
Pick the topics you've always wanted to hear: their childhood, how they met, the family history you never asked about.
They just talk
Biographer gently interviews them, drawing out stories they may never have told, in their own words and voice.
Keep it forever
Every conversation becomes a written chapter and a recording in their voice, compiled into a book your family keeps for generations.
From our founder
I was lucky my dad did this before he passed.
He talked about his childhood I never knew, his struggles, the moments I made him proud. When he died, I felt like I finally knew him as a whole person, not just as my dad. My family has his stories, and his voice, forever.
The stories you don't capture, you lose, and you rarely realize it until it's too late.
