How It Works

Start with a question. Or a memory of your own.

You bring the memories. Choose the kind of writing support that helps you put them into words.

Your memories. Your starting point.

Two ways to write your personal stories

A little structure can help you begin. So can a memory you cannot wait to tell.

Follow a thread through your life

Guided Life Story

“I would like some help knowing where to start.”

Explore chapter themes with thoughtful questions and follow-ups. Choose an alternative when an eligible question does not fit, and review your memories before creating each chapter.

One-time guided packages. Begin with the free Prologue.

Begin with the memory on your mind

Tell It Your Way

“I already know the story I want to tell.”

Start with your own writing, an optional idea, or one photo. Add passages in your own time, use guidance when it helps, and finish each story in your library.

One calendar month free for eligible accounts, with no card required. Guided packages do not include separate annual access.

Guided Life Story

Build your story chapter by chapter

  1. Begin with the Prologue. Try a guided chapter before choosing a Moments, Memories, or Legacy package.
  2. Explore the questions. Follow a chapter theme. Change an eligible unanswered question, skip it for later, or retire a question that does not fit your life.
  3. Review and create. Revisit missed memories within your package allowances. Review the generated chapter before requesting a digital book. Later additions may require recreating the chapter.

Tell It Your Way

Keep one memory at a time

  1. Activate your free trial. Sign in or create an account, check eligibility, and explicitly confirm activation in the app. One calendar month, no card required.
  2. Choose your starting point. Your own writing, an optional idea, or one photo. Annual story access is separate from guided packages.
  3. Add saved passages. Write freely or use optional guidance. Check save status and come back when you remember more.
  4. Finish deliberately. Read your saved writing and finish the story in your library. Later edits replace that finished version when you choose Update story.

At trial expiry, access becomes read/download only, without an additional finishing period. Paid annual access is needed to continue writing. This trial is separate from the guided Life Story Prologue. Assisted guidance has allowances.

Celebrating someone together?

Create a Tribute with family and friends

Choose a contributor package, invite your group, and set a deadline. Each person signs in to share their memories and photos. Review the contributions and prepare a reveal and digital keepsake around the person you are celebrating.

Saving, sharing, and making a book are separate steps

Saving writing does not make it public. Finishing an independent story keeps a finished version in your library. Book placement, where available, is a separate choice, and a new download is needed to include later changes. Guided chapters, independent stories, and Tribute contributions each follow their own access and sharing rules.
