Features
Our AI transforms your spoken or typed memories into beautifully written chapters, preserving your authentic voice and tone.
You can record audio in the app or upload recordings and we automatically transcribe spoken words into editable text using our transcription service. Accuracy depends on audio quality (clear, quiet recordings work best). Transcriptions are used only to generate and edit your memoir and are processed securely.
Getting Started
Log in to your account, go to 'Your Memoirs' and click the 'Create New Memoir' button to start capturing your life story. New users receive one free memoir to try; additional memoirs require credits (purchase on the Pricing page) which are applied to your account immediately.
Use the 'Forgot Password' link on the login page to reset your password. If you need further assistance, please contact our support team via the Contact Us page.
New accounts get one free memoir to try. Free (unpaid) accounts are limited in how many AI-generated sections you can create (the site enforces a 3-section limit for unpaid users).
