Answer a follow-up
Questions that build on stories you've already saved.
What would you like to make?
Make something from a memory. Nothing changes until you save it — have a look around.
Hear a memory in their voice
Record for a couple of minutes, and we’ll read one saved memory back as a quick preview — a taste of how the full archive sounds.
Saved samples
Record for a couple of minutes
Tap the microphone and read the line below to start, then keep going with the prompts. A quiet room and a natural speaking voice give the best result. A minute and a half to three minutes gives the truest voice.
Making your sample…
This takes a few seconds. We’re shaping a memory into the voice.
Hear the result
Here is a memory, read in their voice.
Nothing is kept automatically — keep or download this sample to hear it again later.
This is a quick preview
It’s made from your short clip, so it only approximates the voice. With the Voice Family Archive ($299), every memory plays in their voice — tap any portrait on the Memory Wall and hear that moment, just as they told it.
Restore an old photo
Pick a memory to picture
Choose a saved memory, and we’ll make a picture to go with it.
Making your picture…
This can take up to a minute or two — you can leave this screen open.
Here’s a picture for this memory
Choose an old photo to restore
Upload a faded, scratched, or torn photo. We’ll repair it and add natural color.
Restoring your photo…
Repairing damage first, then adding color. This can take a minute or two.
Before & after
Drag to compare. The faces and composition are unchanged.
Saved to the archive
It’s in this person’s photos now.
Map the people connected to this LegacyFile

How the people connect
Built from the connections below. Generations are inferred from parent / spouse / sibling links. This view is fully offline-safe — no AI required to draw it.
Link two people
Connections are the real graph edges that build the tree. Parent → child is directional; spouse and sibling are mutual.
Find people and connections in the memories
Reads the processed memories for this project and proposes people and links. Nothing is saved until you confirm each one. Online intake only — requires a signed-in Supabase session with the family-graph-mine function deployed.

Your privacy
A plain-language summary of how LegacyFile handles your memories. If you have a question this doesn't answer, email support@legacyfile.org.
Your memories are private to you
Everything you add — your stories, your photos, your family details — is tied to your own account. Only you can see it. We don't make it public, and we don't share it with other users.
Your photos are stored securely
Photos you upload are kept in private, secure storage. They are not visible to anyone outside your account.
We only save the words, never the recording
If you choose to talk instead of type, your speech is turned into text and only that text is saved. The audio recording itself is never stored.
Reading a photo of text
If you upload a photo of text, we first try to read it right on your device. If that doesn't work well and you choose "Try harder with AI," that one image is sent securely to our AI provider only to read the words — it isn't used for anything else.
You stay in control
You can edit or delete anything you've saved from the Edit page, any time before your LegacyFile is submitted. After it's submitted, just email us if you need a change.
We don't sell or share your data
We do not sell your information or share it with advertisers. We use it only to build the LegacyFile you asked us to create.
What you receive
When your LegacyFile is finished, your stories and photos are packed into a private interactive website — your Memory Wall — and loaded onto a USB drive that is mailed to your home.
