How it works

One person. One memory. A beginning.

You do not need a finished family tree or a life story written out. Start a page for someone you love, living or remembered, and let the people who know them help it grow.

Screens from Our Story, using the fictional Rossi family. Select a screen to see it up close.

    Start with a person

    Their name is enough. Add a photo if you have one; dates, family connections and life details can come later.

    Keep one memory

    Share a photograph, write a few words or record a familiar voice. Starting from their page keeps the memory connected to them.

Create a memory page

One person is a good beginning.

A few words are enough

The way they answered the phone. A recipe in their handwriting. The story behind an old photograph. Save what you know now; titles, dates and other details can be added later.

You choose who joins in

Your archive is private. Invite family or friends and choose their access. A viewer can explore; people with permission to contribute can add memories. Archive owners manage membership. The invitation explains what the recipient can do.

Invited relatives need a free account, but they do not need their own subscription.

Let the story grow in its own time

Connect relatives when you’re ready. Their pages and memories become part of a wider family story. You can also save memories before creating any person profiles, or bring an existing family tree.

Time to see whether it feels like home

The 30-day Family trial needs no card. After that, Family costs $59/year, billed annually until canceled. The trial does not automatically charge you. Without a plan, the archive becomes read-only; reading and owner exports remain available. Trial expiration does not begin deletion.

The trial includes 2 GB storage and 25 AI actions. One Family trial is available per account. AI tools are available only when enabled for your archive.
