How it works
Gentle, warm, and easy for anyone. Capture the person, not just the facts.
A parent, grandparent, spouse: anyone whose stories and voice you'd never want to lose. Set them up in minutes.
Biographer interviews them with warmth and patience about their childhood, their loves, their hard-won wisdom, all in their own words and voice.
Their stories and voice become a living memory your whole family can revisit, hear, and pass down for generations.
From our founder
A couple of years ago my dad was diagnosed with a terminal illness. I wanted to record his life, but life kept getting in the way. I was lucky. We captured his stories before he passed. My family has him forever now: his childhood, his struggles, his pride, his voice.
Once I heard his life in his own words, I stopped seeing him only as my dad and started seeing the whole person. Everyone deserves that.
Start with one conversationWhat you get
Not just words on a page: the actual sound of them, telling the stories only they can tell.
Chapters and recordings your children and grandchildren can revisit and add to for generations.
The comfort of knowing you did it in time, that nothing essential about them will ever be lost.
"Once I saw my parents' stories flow out of them, I started to see them as unique people with their own histories. It truly transformed my relationship with them."
Jared, co-founder

It's the opposite. This is about celebrating someone while they're here. Most people find the conversations joyful and deeply connecting. It's a gift of attention and listening, not a countdown.
Everything they shared stays with your family, forever: their chapters and the recordings in their own voice, yours to revisit, print, and pass down. That's exactly why families are so grateful they started in time.
Extremely. If you can talk on the phone or send a text, you can use Biographer. You pick a topic, and it asks you warm, natural questions, and you just answer out loud or by typing. No writing, no blank page, no tech skills needed.
Yes. Your stories are private and belong to you. We don't sell your data and there are no ads. You can export or delete everything at any time.
Always. Every chapter and recording is yours to download, print, or turn into a book, even if you cancel. Your life stories belong to you.
You can start completely free, no credit card. If you love it and want to keep going, plans start at the price above, and you can cancel anytime.
