A private audio series about their life, hosted by the family. We coach every host live and handle everything else.
They open up to someone they love. We make sure that person knows what to ask next.
Every host is coached to ask the right questions, before and during the call
Maya interviews her grandfather Frank while her phone guides her: the next question, follow-ups based on what he just said, and small nudges like “give him a moment.” This AI-generated example simulates the full experience, so you can hear the call and see her screen as it happens.
Tell us a little about them: where they grew up, the work they did, the people who matter. We suggest questions for every chapter, and you can edit, reorder or write your own.
No spreadsheets, no chasing siblings, no audio editing. From the first reminder to the finished episode, it's taken care of.
We find a time with each host and send gentle reminders, so no chapter is forgotten.
If a host can't make it, hand the chapter to someone else in a tap. Everyone stays in the loop.
About 30 minutes of conversation becomes a 5 to 15 minute episode, with music and transitions.
Nothing is shared until they approve it. Anything they'd rather keep private is taken out.
Name the series and choose the chapters. Share the preview with the family, or go ahead on your own.
Choose the day. They receive a preview of their series by email, and you get a printable card to hand over in person.
Each host calls or sits down with them, coached live on screen. We turn every conversation into a finished episode.
Everything lives on one private page, ready to play for years, with every file yours to download.
All six episodes in one place, with their cover and every host's name. One link for the whole family: large type, large buttons, nothing to sign in to.
With their portrait, the chapters and the hosts. Print it at home and hand it over.
Five to fifteen minutes each, with original music, smooth transitions and a series introduction.
The complete, unedited recordings too, including the moments that didn't make the edit.
Name the series, choose the chapters and pick who hosts each one. Then send it whenever you like, or share the preview with the family first so everyone can weigh in or chip in.
Every audio series comes with six episodes, recorded over about six months at your family's pace. Want more? Add episodes when you buy, or top up any time after you start.
“Mom has told the story of her first apartment a hundred times. With her grandson asking, she finally told us about the landlord.”

Start planning, it's freeHi, I'm Maya, Frank's granddaughter. I've never done anything like this, so bear with me. I'm supposed to start with one story about what Grandpa means to me.
When I was little, Grandpa picked me up from school every Thursday, and we'd stop at Nick's Bakery on the way home. He'd get two crullers, one for each of us, and then he'd tell Grandma we didn't have anything. Every single Thursday.
This episode is about the two of them. Grandpa, say hi.
Planning is free and takes about fifteen minutes. You can change anything later.
Name it anything. Most families use something their parent would actually say.
Next in the real flow: pick six chapters, invite the hosts, and get the preview link to share with the family.
