For Storytellers

You don’t have to be a writer.

You only have to answer one question at a time, out loud, in your own words. Everything else — the writing down, the keeping, the deciding who hears it — waits for you.

Every legacy starts private. Only you, until you say otherwise.

Only me

Nobody else can open this. Not until you move it.

  • Share with family
  • Invite one person
  • Publish to Explore

A picture of the sharing control, not the control itself — that lives in your studio.

What it is like to record

  1. Speaking is easier than writing

    One button, and then just talk

    Press it and speak the way you would to a grandchild across the kitchen table. We write it down for you. If you would rather type, you can — and if you close the browser halfway through a sentence, the sentence is still there when you come back.

    • No script, no minimum, no wrong length
    • Pause and pick it up again tomorrow
    • Typed memories survive a closed tab
  2. Kept safe, and still yours

    Locked away, never locked in

    Recordings, photos, and documents sit in private storage, encrypted at rest, and are played back through links that expire. And the door out is as plain as the lock: take everything with you whenever you like, or delete all of it and have it gone.

    • Private storage — never publicly readable
    • Export transcripts, timeline, and media in full
    • Delete everything, including the stored files
  3. Built to be easy to press

    Made for the eyes and hands that will use it

    Larger type, generous spacing, and buttons that clear the width of a thumb throughout the studio. Nothing important hidden behind a small icon, nothing that only appears when a mouse hovers over it, and no jargon anywhere.

    • Bigger type and taller lines than the rest of the web
    • Every control at least as tall as a fingertip
    • Nothing that needs a mouse to be discovered
Private until you move it

You decide how far your voice travels.

This is the actual control, with the actual consequences. Move it and see. Nothing you do here changes anything — there is no legacy behind it yet.

Who can hear it

Nobody else can open this. Not your family, not us on a whim, not a stranger who guesses the address.

Where every legacy starts, without you choosing it.

You can move this back down at any time, and taking someone’s access away takes effect immediately.

Three more things you can undo

  • Preview before anyone hears it

    Talk to your own character first. See what it says, and what it declines to say, before a single family member is invited in.

  • Take it all with you

    Transcripts, themes, timeline, and the original media, exported in full whenever you ask. Nothing here is held hostage.

  • Change your mind

    Delete a memory and your character can no longer draw on it. Remove someone’s access and it takes effect immediately.

One question. That’s the whole first day.

You do not have to know where your story starts. We will ask you something specific, and you will find you already know the answer.

Wondering exactly where the files live? We wrote it down, including what we do not offer.
