A place for the people you love
The people you love, in a Story told together.
Start a Story for yourself or someone you love. The people who were there add their memories, and it grows into something you can read, hear, and come back to for years.
Free to create, read, and share. Private by default.
An example
Margaret Johnson
1942 – 2019 · Started by her granddaughter Sarah
Ellen Marsh remembers: “Her father’s bakery on Superior Street opened before dawn, and Margaret would walk to school smelling of cardamom.” Accounts differ on where she was born: Ellen recalls Duluth, while her son Tom remembers her insisting it was Minneapolis.
Read Margaret’s StoryHow it works
The stories are already there. We gather them.
- 1
Bring what you have
A voice memo of Grandma at the table. Photos on your phone. Old letters. Or record one minute right now. Nothing is transcribed by hand and nothing is lost.
- 2
Chapters take shape
Within minutes the memories are woven into chapters, in order, with every sentence tied to the memory it came from. Nothing is invented.
- 3
Invite the family
Send a link. Each person adds their memory in their own words, no account needed, and the chapters grow to take them in.
And then a book
A hardcover the family will pass around for years.
When the Story reads right, it becomes a 6 by 9 inch hardcover: a photo cover, contents, the chapters with photographs woven through, the key dates, and the people who told it. Proof every page before it prints. The Story itself stays free, always.
Start gathering
Told together
Send a link. Family and friends add a memory or answer one question, no account needed.
A living Story
Memories become chapters that grow as people add to them, not a folder of files or a one-time print.
In their own words
Record a voice memory in a minute. The original recording is kept exactly as it was.
Private by default
Every Story starts private. You decide who sees what, and nothing is shared without you.
