The living archive

Their voice,
kept for good.

Heirloom sends your parents one gentle question a week. They just talk. Every answer becomes a story your whole family can hear, read and add to — for years.

“The winter we moved to Oakland, your grandfather sold his watch for the deposit.”

Hear it

The question arrives in a natural voice.
They answer in theirs.

The question · English

What Heirloom sounds like when it asks.

The question · 한국어

Same warmth, in Mom’s first language.

Families · sample recordings

Three short family recordings.

The :31 film

What one Sunday of questions sounds like

How it works

Three steps. No technology skills needed.

01

We send the question

By text or email, one at a time, read aloud in a natural voice. Family can add their own: “Ask Grandpa about the restaurant.”

02

They just talk

One big button on any phone. Stop when they’re done. iPhone voice is stored as audio, never lost.

03

It becomes the family archive

Transcribed, titled and kept with the original audio. Relatives listen, react and send the next question.

Inside an archive

Not a memoir on a shelf.
A house you can walk through.

Stories sorted by decade, place and person. Press play and hear the laugh before the punchline.

A careful custodian

Your family’s stories deserve a careful custodian.

You own everything

Export every recording and transcript, any time.

Nothing without consent

The storyteller agrees in plain words before anything is recorded or shared.

The AI won’t invent

If they never said it, Heirloom says so — and offers to ask them.

Family-controlled access

You choose who listens, who adds, and who can only read.
