First up is Lineage, a voice-based storytelling service that lets you capture family history, advice and voices without requiring writing skills or any special equipment. You can pick from a library of questions or create your own, along with photos, then record answers by voice. It's a pretty casual way to share stories, and the results can be stored on devices or Amazon Web Services for easy sharing and archiving.
Another good option is Almaya, a digital service that lets you record, store and share your own experiences and advice through video and audio recordings. Almaya lets you record and store your experiences privately and securely, and it also offers an AI-powered chat interface to explore and share your life experiences. It's geared in particular for older people and those with neurocognitive disorders, helping them feel better and more joyful by giving them access to their favorite memories.
If you want something more interactive, HereAfter offers an app that lets you record and share stories and memories with family members. The app lets you record interviews with accompanying photos and a conversational interface, so family members can easily find and explore the stories. With a variety of subscription plans and a free trial, it's a relatively affordable way to capture and share your grandparents' stories.
